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

as rendered by John Medows Rodwell — 11 verses

THE BLOW
what is the Blow
Who shall teach thee what the Blow is
The Day when men shall be like scattered moths
And the mountains shall be like flocks of carded wool
Then as to him whose balances are heavy
his shall be a life that shall please him well
And as to him whose balances are light
his dwelling-place shall be the pit
And who shall teach thee what the pit (El-Hawiya) is
A raging fire
