The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
The event that terrifies the hearts! 1 What is the Calamity? 2 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is! 3 The day on which men shall be as scattered moths, 4 And mountains will be like flying wool. 5 Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy, 6 will live a pleasant life, 7 But as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be light, 8 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother, 9 And what will make you know what it is? 10 A burning fire. 11
