The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection), 1 What is the event that terrifies the hearts? 2 And what could make thee conceive what that sudden calamity will be? 3 A Day on which human beings would be like so many scattered moths, 4 And the mountains shall become as wool carded, 5 Then, he whose balance (of good deeds) will be (found) heavy, 6 shall find himself in a happy state of life; 7 whereas he whose weight is light in the balance 8 the Abyss shall be his home. 9 How will you comprehend what that is? 10 A fire hotly burning! 11
