Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 unfattening, unappeasing hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 in a garden sublime, 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 And cups put in place 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 DO, THEN, they [who deny resurrection] never gaze at the clouds pregnant with water, [and observe] how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 And Ours their reckoning. 26
