Allah sometimes gives the earth permission to breathe, which is when major earthquakes happen; this makes people feel scared, so they repent, give up sins, pray to Allah and feel regret [for their sins]. When there had been an earthquake, some of the Salaf said: “Your Lord is warning you.” When Madīnah was struck by an earthquake, ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb (may Allah be pleased with you) addressed the people and said: “If there is another earthquake, I will not stay here with you.”

فَيحدث من ذَلِك لِعِبَادِهِ الْخَوْف والخشية والانابة والاقلاع عَن مَعَاصيه والتضرعاليه والندم كَمَا قَالَ بعض السّلف وَقد زلزلت الارض ان ربكُم يستعتبكم وَقَالَ عمر بن الْخطاب وَقد زلزلت الْمَدِينَة فخطبهم ووعظهم وَقَالَ لَئِن عَادَتْ لَا اساكنكم فِيهَا
