Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace). 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 In a high Garden 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoever will turn away (from the Truth), 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
