Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 which gives no strength and neither stills hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 In a high Garden. 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Wherein is a gushing spring, 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 And drinking-cups ready placed, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 you are not their keeper. 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
