The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection), 1 What is the Calamity? 2 And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity? 3 [It is] a Day when mankind shall be like scattered moths 4 and the mountains will be like fluffy tufts of wool.... 5 And then, he whose weight [of good deeds] is heavy in the balance 6 He is therefore in the desired bliss. 7 And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light, 8 his shall be the deep pit for a dwelling. 9 And what could make thee conceive what that [abyss] will be? 10 It is the scorching fire. 11
