On the Day the earth and the mountains will convulse and the mountains will become a heap of sand pouring down.
إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولًۭا شَـٰهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًۭا
Indeed, We have sent to you a Messenger as a witness upon you just as We sent to Pharaoh a messenger.

Then how can you fear, if you disbelieve, a Day that will make the children white-haired?
ٱلسَّمَآءُ مُنفَطِرٌۢ بِهِۦ ۚ كَانَ وَعْدُهُۥ مَفْعُولًا
The heaven will break apart therefrom; ever is His promise fulfilled.
