The (Day) of Noise and Clamour:

What is the (Day) of Noise and Clamour?
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ ( 3 )
And what will explain to thee what the (Day) of Noise and Clamour is?
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ النَّاسُ كَالْفَرَاشِ الْمَبْثُوثِ ( 4 )
(It is) a Day whereon men will be like moths scattered about,
وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ الْمَنفُوشِ ( 5 )
And the mountains will be like carded wool.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ ( 6 )
Then, he whose balance (of good deeds) will be (found) heavy,
فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ ( 7 )
Will be in a life of good pleasure and satisfaction.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَازِينُهُ ( 8 )
But he whose balance (of good deeds) will be (found) light,-
فَأُمُّهُ هَاوِيَةٌ ( 9 )
Will have his home in a (bottomless) Pit.
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا هِيَهْ ( 10 )
And what will explain to thee what this is?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌ ( 11 )
(It is) a Fire Blazing fiercely!
