Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 Many a face will be disgraced on that day. 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 In a Garden on high, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 And cushions ranged 15 and carpets spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 You do not have full control over them. 22 Other than him who turns his back and denies, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 Then it will be for Us to call them to account. 26
