    About Surah Az-Zalzalah

    Az-Zalzalah, the Earthquake, describes the violent shaking of the earth on the Last Day, when it pours out its burdens and tells its news. It then gives one of the most quoted lines in the Quran: whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.
