101 Surah Al-Qari'ah Bangali Transilation

Al-Qaria or The Calamity[1] (Arabic: القارعة, al-Qāriʻah, also known as The Striking,[2]) is the 101st chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, with 11 āyāt or verses. This chapter takes its name from its first word "qariah",[3] referring to the Quranic view of the end time and eschatology. "Qariah" has been translated as calamity, striking, catastrophe and clatterer.[4] According to Ibn Kathir, a traditionalistic exegete, Al-Qariah is one of the names of the Day of Judgement, like Al-Haaqqa, At-Tammah, As-Sakhkhah and others.

1-5 The day of judgment a day of calamity [6][1]

6-9 The good and bad shall be judged according to their works

10-11 Háwíyah described [6]

After a picturesque depiction of judgement day in first 5 verses,[7] next 4 verses (ayat) describe that God's Court will be established and the people will be called upon to account for their deeds. The people whose good deeds will be heavier, will be blessed with bliss and happiness, and the people whose good deeds will be lighter, will be cast into the burning fire of hell.[8]

The last 2 verses describe Háwíyah[9] in a similar emphatic[10][11] way as Al-Qariah was emphasized[12][13] in the beginning. According to the Papal translator, Maracci, the original word Hâwiyat is the name of the lowest dungeon of hell, and properly signifies a deep pit or gulf.[14] Jewish to Muslim convert, Muhammad Asad comments here: Lit., "his mother [i.e., goal] will be an abyss" (of suffering and despair). According to Quranite translator, Sam Gerrans, the term "mother" (umm) is used idiomatically to denote something that embraces or enfolds.
