The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
OH, the sudden calamity! 1 What is the Clatterer. 2 And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity? 3 It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about, 4 And the mountains will be like carded wool, 5 Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds], 6 He will live a pleasant life. 7 And for one whose scales prove light, 8 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother, 9 And what could make thee conceive what that [abyss] will be? 10 Raging Fire. 11
