IT WILL COME SUDDENLY
AND UNPREDICTABLY
What are they waiting for, but the Hour to come upon them
suddenly when they are not expecting it? (Qur'an, 43:66)
What are they awaiting but for the Hour to come upon them
suddenly? Its Signs have already come. What good will their
Reminder be to them when it does arrive? (Qur'an, 47:18)
No, it will come upon them suddenly, confounding them, taking
them completely by surprise, and they will not be able to ward it
off. They will be granted no reprieve. (Qur'an, 21:40)
What are they waiting for but one Great Blast to seize them while
they are quibbling? They will not be able to make a will or return
to their families. (Qur'an, 36:49-50)

IT CONSISTS OF JUST
ONE GREAT BLAST
There will be but one Great Blast and then their eyes will open.
(Qur'an, 37:19)
What are they waiting for but one Great Blast to seize them while
they are quibbling? (Qur'an, 36:49)
The Day they hear the Blast in truth, that is the Day of Emergence.
(Qur'an, 50:42)

IT IS UNSPEAKABLY TERRIBLE
Turn away from them then.On the Day the Summoner summons
them to something unspeakably terrible, (Qur'an, 54:6)

ON THAT DAY EVERYTHING
WILL COME TO LIGHT
'You were heedless of this so We have stripped you of your
covering and today your sight is sharp.' (Qur'an, 50:22)
