فَإِذَا بَرِقَ الْبَصَرُ (7)
(75:7) When the sight is dazed, *7
*7) Literally, the words bariq al-basaru mean dazzling of the eyes by lightning, but in the Arabic idiom these words do not specifically carry this meaning only but are also used for man's being terror-stricken and amazed, or his being confounded on meeting with an accident suddenly and his eyes being dazed at some distressing sight before him. This subject has been expressed at another place in the Qur'an, thus; "AIlah is only deferring their case to the Day when the eyes shall stare with consternation." (Ibrahim: 42).
