Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 Burning in the scorching fire, 4 Made to drink water from the boiling hot spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity: 11 Therein will be a running spring, 12 therein uplifted couches 13 And goblets set at hand 14 And arranged carpets. 15 and well spread carpets. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And the mountains, how they were fixed; 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 you are not their keeper. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 And Ours their reckoning. 26
