Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces will on that Day be downcast, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 roasting at a scorching fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 They will have no food other than bitter and thorny fruit 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 Many faces will be joyous on that day, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In an elevated garden, 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions ranged 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 And the mountains – how they have been established? 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Allah will punish them with the greatest punishment. 24 Truly, to Us is their return; 25 Then it will be for Us to call them to account. 26
