ٱلۡحَآقَّةُ

The Imminent Happening!


مَا ٱلۡحَآقَّةُ

What is the Imminent Happening?


وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡحَآقَّةُ

And what can let you know what the Imminent happening is?


كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ وَعَادُۢ بِٱلۡقَارِعَةِ

Thamūd and ‘Ād had denied (the happening of) the Shocking Event (the Day of Judgment).


فَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَأُهۡلِكُواْ بِٱلطَّاغِيَةِ

As for Thamūd, they were destroyed by that (dreadful cry), which exceeded all limits.


وَأَمَّا عَادٞ فَأُهۡلِكُواْ بِرِيحٖ صَرۡصَرٍ عَاتِيَةٖ

And as for ‘Ād, they were destroyed by a violent windstorm


سَخَّرَهَا عَلَيۡهِمۡ سَبۡعَ لَيَالٖ وَثَمَٰنِيَةَ أَيَّامٍ حُسُومٗاۖ فَتَرَى ٱلۡقَوۡمَ فِيهَا صَرۡعَىٰ كَأَنَّهُمۡ أَعۡجَازُ نَخۡلٍ خَاوِيَةٖ

that He imposed on them for seven nights and eight consecutive days; so you could see them thrown on the ground, as if they were trunks of hollow palm-trees.


فَهَلۡ تَرَىٰ لَهُم مِّنۢ بَاقِيَةٖ

Now, do you see any remnant of them?
