Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 well pleased with their striving, 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Where they hear no idle speech, 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 And carpets spread around. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And the mountains - how they have been established? 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
