The Holy Quran 22:2 — Surah Al-Hajj

Arabic text

يَوْمَ تَرَوْنَهَا تَذْهَلُ كُلُّ مُرْضِعَةٍ عَمَّآ أَرْضَعَتْ وَتَضَعُ كُلُّ ذَاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَهَا وَتَرَى ٱلنَّاسَ سُكَـٰرَىٰ وَمَا هُم بِسُكَـٰرَىٰ وَلَـٰكِنَّ عَذَابَ ٱللَّهِ شَدِيدٌ

Translation

When you will witness the day (of Qiyaamah), (you will see that people will be so frightened and worried that) every nursing mother will forget her suckling infant and every pregnant woman will abort (her unborn child). You will also see people in a drunken stupor although they will not be drunk, but (they will be in this condition because they will realise that) Allaah's punishment is severe (Worried that they should not have to face His punishment, people will be oblivious of everything else).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The earthquakes of the Day of Resurrection and their severity: the great earthquakes of the Day of Resurrection are two. One will come at the very moment the Day of Resurrection is established, or after the second blowing [of the Trumpet]; the other will come shortly before the Day of Resurrection and is one of its signs.
