Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 Made to drink water from the boiling hot spring. 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure. 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 in a sublime Garden, 10 They shall hear therein no vain discourse; 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 And goblets set at hand 14 cushions ranged, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 But whoever will turn away (from the Truth), 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
