Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 and raised couches, 13 and goblets set forth 14 and cushions arrayed 15 and well spread carpets. 16 What, do they not reflect upon how the camel was created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 So, [O Prophet] exhort them: your task is only to exhort, 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
