Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Many faces will be contrite on that day, 2 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace). 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 well pleased with their striving, 9 in a sublime Garden, 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 and couches raised high, 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 and cushions arrayed in rows, 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 how the earth was outstretched? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 But whoever turns back and denies the truth, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 To Us they will all return. 25 Then it will be for Us to call them to account. 26
