The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
OH, the sudden calamity! 1 What is the crash? 2 And what could make thee conceive what that sudden calamity will be? 3 [It will occur] on the Day when men will be like moths swarming in confusion, 4 And the mountains will be like carded wool, 5 And then, he whose weight [of good deeds] is heavy in the balance 6 shall have a blissful life; 7 but he whose scales weigh lighter, 8 Will have the Abyss for abode. 9 And what will make you know what it is? 10 A burning fire. 11
