Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 no food for them but cactus thorn 6 which gives no strength and neither stills hunger. 7 Many faces will be joyous on that day, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood, 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions ranged 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
