Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 therein uplifted couches 13 and goblets set at hand, 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. (The Holy Prophet is a Remembrance from Allah.) 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
