Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 labouring, weary, 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the most terrible chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
