Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 Scorched by burning fire, 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 and couches raised high, 13 well arranged goblets, 14 cushions ranged, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder; 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 So Allah will mete out to him the greatest punishment. 24 To Us is surely their returning; 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
