The Shocker (Al-Qaare'ah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection), 1 How awesome the sudden calamity! 2 And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is? 3 A day wherein mankind will be as thickly-scattered moths 4 and mountains will be like carded wool. 5 And then, he whose weight [of good deeds] is heavy in the balance 6 shall inherit a pleasing life, 7 But as for one whose scales are light, 8 his head will be in the Plunging 9 And what shall make thee know that which she is? 10 A blazing Fire! 11
