Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 Faces on that Day shall be delighted, 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 and raised couches, 13 And goblets set at hand 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder; 21 you are not their keeper. 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Truly, to Us is their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
