Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians, etc.). 2 laboring, wornout, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 In a high Garden. 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 There is a stream of running water in it; 12 therein uplifted couches 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions ranged 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 However, as for him who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
