Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire. 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In the high empyrean, 10 They shall hear therein no vain discourse; 11 There is a stream of running water in it; 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 And carpets spread around. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 But whoever turns back and denies the truth, 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
