Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 Some faces will on that Day be downcast, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 which gives no strength and neither stills hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 and raised couches, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions lined up 15 And linen spread out. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And at the mountains, how firmly they are reared? 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning. 26
