The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
THE STARTLING CALAMITY. 1 What is the crash? 2 What shall Make thee know that which the Striking is? 3 (It is) a Day whereon men will be like moths scattered about, 4 And the mountains shall become as wool carded, 5 Then he whose deeds weigh heavy in the Balance 6 shall inherit a pleasing life, 7 whereas he whose weight is light in the balance 8 He is in the lap of one that abases. 9 And what could make thee conceive what that [abyss] will be? 10 A Fire vehemently hot! 11
