According to Ibn Kathir, a traditionalistic exegete, Al-Qariah is one of the names of the Day of Judgement, like Al-Haaqqa, At-Tammah, As-Sakhkhah and others. " Qariah" has been translated as calamity, striking, catastrophe and clatterer. This chapter takes its name from its first word " qariah", referring to the Quranic view of the end time and eschatology. Al-Qaria or The Calamity ( Arabic: القارعة, al-Qāriʻah, also known as The Striking, ) is the 101st chapter ( sūrah) of the Quran, with 11 āyāt or verses.
