Al-Wāq'iah (arabiska: سورة الواقعة) ("Det som måste komma", "Det Oundvikliga" eller "Händelsen") är den femtiosjätte suran i Koranen med 96 verser (ayah). Den skall ha uppenbarats för profeten Muhammed under dennes period i Mekka. Muhammed säger i en hadith (Ibn as-Sunni 620, Bayhaqi): Den som reciterar Surah al-Wāq'iah på natten skall aldrig drabbas av fattigdom."
