Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 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 sublime garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 In which are high thrones. 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Allah will punish them with the greatest punishment. 24 To Us they will all return. 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
