The Day of the great quake
يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ ٦ تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ ٧ قُلُوبٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ وَاجِفَةٌ ٨ أَبْصَٰرُهَا خَٰشِعَةٌۭ ٩
The meaning, simply
On the Day the earth shakes with the first blast, followed by a second one, the hearts of the disbelievers will tremble with fear, and their eyes will be lowered by the terror of what they see.
