Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 Well-pleased because of their striving, 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 and couches raised high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 cushions ranged, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 how the earth was outstretched? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 In which case he will be punished by God with the severest punishment. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning. 26
