Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Other) faces, that Day, will be joyful, 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 raised couches, 13 Goblets set, 14 cushions ranged, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder; 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 To Us is surely their returning; 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
