يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
Yawma yakoonu a l nn a su ka a lfar a shi almabthooth i
[It will occur] on the Day when men will be like moths swarming in confusion,
  - Mohammad Asad
It is that Day when men shall be like scattered moths
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
'It is' the Day people will be like scattered moths,
  - Mustafa Khattab
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly scattered moths
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
(It is) a Day whereon Men will be like moths Scattered about 6252
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Moths are frail light things. To see them scattered about in a violent storm gives some idea of the confusion, distress, and helplessness in which men will be at first overwhelmed on the Day of Account. Old memories will be like a book almost blotted out. New hopes will be vague in a new world just rising on the horizon. But it will be a perfectly just world, and no good action will be lost and no evil one but will have its compensating value estimated.
