About Surah An-Nazi'at (النازعات)

An-Nazi'at swears by the angels who extract souls — violently from some, gently from others — and recounts Musa's confrontation with Pharaoh, who claimed to be the most high lord and was seized. To those who ask when the Hour will come, it answers: to your Lord is its finality; you are only a warner for those who fear it.
