Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 in a garden sublime, 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 and cushions arrayed in rows, 15 And carpets spread around. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the most terrible chastisement. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
