Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 (Other) faces, that Day, will be joyful, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 in a garden sublime, 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 and couches raised high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed, 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
