Al-Qaria
The Calamity! (1) What is the Calamity? (2) Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is! (3) A day wherein mankind will be as thickly-scattered moths (4) And the mountains will become as carded wool. (5) 101:1-5

Al-Qari`ah is one of the names of the Day of Judgement, like Al-Haqqah, At-Tammah, As-Sakhkhah, Al-Ghashiyah and other names.
Then Allah intensifies concern and fright for it by saying,
[وَمَآ أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ ]
(And what will make you know what Al-Qari`ah is) Then He explains this by saying,
[يَوْمَ يَكُونُ النَّاسُ كَالْفَرَاشِ الْمَبْثُوثِ ]
(It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about.) meaning, in their scattering, their dividing, their coming and their going, all due to being bewildered at what is happening to them, they will be like scattered moths. This is like Allah's statement,
[كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُّنتَشِرٌ]
(As if they were locusts spread abroad.) (54:7) Allah said,
[وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ الْمَنفُوشِ ]
(And the mountains will be like wool, carded.) meaning, they will become like carded wool that has began to wear out (fade away) and be torn apart. Mujahid, `Ikrimah, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Al-Hasan, Qatadah, `Ata' Al-Khurasani, Ad-Dahhak and As-Suddi have all said,
[كَالْعِهْنِ]
(like wool (`Ihn). ) "Woolen.''
