THE HOUR
Allah commands:
"O mankind, fear your Lord. Verily, the earthquake of the Hour is a terrible thing." (22:1)
Allah commands His servants to have Taqwa (Fear) of Him, He informs them of the terrors of the Day of Resurrection which will come to them with its earthquakes and other horrors, as He says:
When the earth is shaken with its (final) earthquake. And when the earth throws out its burdens.(99:1-2)
It was said that this earthquake will come at the end of the life span of this world, at the outset of the Hour.
The terror, fear, earthquakes and chaos that will happen on the Day of Resurrection, in the arena (of Judgement), after the resurrection from the graves.
"The Day you shall see it, every nursing mother will forget her nursling,..." (22:2)
(means, she will be distracted by the horror of what she is seeing, which will make her forget the one who is the dearest of all to her and to whom she shows the most compassion. Her shock will make her neglect her infant at the very moment of breastfeeding)
"and every pregnant one will drop her load,"
(means, before the pregnancy has reached full term, because of the intensity of the horror.)
"and you shall see mankind as in a drunken yet they will not be drunken, but Allah's torment is severe."
(means, because of the severity of their situation, when they will lose their minds, so that whoever sees them, will think, that they are drunk, while they will be Sober)
