Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians, etc.). 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 in a garden sublime, 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
