Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Many a face will be disgraced on that day. 2 laboring, wornout, 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 Made to drink water from the boiling hot spring. 5 they shall have no food but thorns, 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 In the high empyrean, 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 And cushions ranged 15 and outspread carpets. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 So, [O Prophet] exhort them: your task is only to exhort, 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 To Us they will all return. 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
