Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 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 lofty garden, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 And drinking-cups ready placed, 14 Cushions arranged, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Verily, to Us will be their return; 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
