Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 Given to drink of a spring fiercely boiling. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 unfattening, unappeasing hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 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 an elevated garden, 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 and couches raised high, 13 and prepared goblets, 14 Cushions arranged, 15 and carpets outspread. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the heaven - how it has been raised? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
