Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 Given to drink of a spring fiercely boiling. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 well pleased with their striving, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 In which are high thrones. 13 And chosen goblets. 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 And at the mountains, how firmly they are reared? 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the most terrible chastisement. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
