Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)? 1 Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 well pleased with their striving, 9 In the high empyrean, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 and goblets set at hand, 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 sky: how it was raised high? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then it will be for Us to call them to account. 26
