Surah “The Calamity, The Stunning Blow, The Disaster, The Terrible Calamity”

as rendered by Dr. Laleh Bakhtiar — 11 verses

The Disaster!
What is the Disaster?
And what will cause thee to recognize what the Disaster is?
On a Day humanity will be like dispersed moths
and the mountains will be like plucked wool clusters.
Then, for him whose balance was heavy will be
one whose life is pleasant, well-pleasing.
But he whose balance was made light,
his abode of rest will be the pit.
What will cause thee to recognize what it is?
It is a hot fire.
