The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
The Clatterer! 1 What is the striking (Hour)? 2 What shall let you know what the Clatterer is! 3 A day wherein mankind will be as thickly-scattered moths 4 and the mountains like tufts of carded wool. 5 Then as for him whose balances are heavy, 6 Will be in a life of good pleasure and satisfaction. 7 but he whose scales weigh lighter, 8 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother, 9 And what shall make thee know that which she is? 10 It is a Fire, intensely hot. 11
