بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

ٱلۡقَارِعَةُ ۝١ مَا ٱلۡقَارِعَةُ ۝٢ وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡقَارِعَةُ ۝٣ يَوۡمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلۡفَرَاشِ ٱلۡمَبۡثُوثِ ۝٤ وَتَكُونُ ٱلۡجِبَالُ كَٱلۡعِهۡنِ ٱلۡمَنفُوشِ ۝٥ فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ۝٦ فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٖ رَّاضِيَةٖ ۝٧ وَأَمَّا مَنۡ خَفَّتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ۝٨ فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٞ ۝٩ وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهۡ ۝١٠ نَارٌ حَامِيَةُۢ ۝١١

English translation

1The Shocker.

2What is the Shocker?

3What will explain to you what the Shocker is?

4The Day when the people will be like scattered moths.

5And the mountains will be like tufted wool.

6As for him whose scales are heavy.

7He will be in a pleasant life.

8But as for him whose scales are light.

9His home is the Abyss.

10Do you know what it is?

11A Raging Fire.
