The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
The Clatterer! 1 What is the event that terrifies the hearts? 2 And what will explain to thee what the (Day) of Noise and Clamour is? 3 A Day whereon mankind shall become as moths scattered, 4 and the mountains like tufts of carded wool. 5 Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds], 6 He shall live a pleasant life. 7 whereas he whose weight is light in the balance 8 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother, 9 And what could make thee conceive what that [abyss] will be? 10 A fire hotly burning! 11
