The Clatterer!
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٢﴾
What is the Clatterer?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٣﴾
And what shall teach thee what is the Clatterer?
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ ﴿٤﴾
The day that men shall be like scattered moths,
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ ﴿٥﴾
and the mountains shall be like plucked wool-tufts.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٦﴾
Then he whose deeds weigh heavy in the Balance
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍۢ رَّاضِيَةٍۢ ﴿٧﴾

وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٨﴾
but he whose deeds weigh light in the Balance
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌۭ ﴿٩﴾
shall plunge in the womb of the Pit.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ ﴿١٠﴾
And what shall teach thee what is the Pit?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ ﴿١١﴾
A blazing Fire!
