Sūra XCIX.

Zilzāl, or The Convulsion.

In the name of God, Most Gracious,
Most Merciful.

1. When the Earth is
Shaken to her (utmost)
convulsion,

2. And the Earth throws up
Her burdens (from within),

3. And man cries (distressed):
"What is the matter with her?"—

4. On that Day will she
Declare her tidings:

5. For that thy Lord will
Have given her inspiration,

6. On that Day will men
Proceed in companies sorted out,

p. 1772

To be shown the Deeds
That they (had done).

7. Then shall anyone who
Has done an atom's weight
Of good, see it!

8. And anyone who
Has done an atom's weight
Of evil, shall see it.
