Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 and will be made to drink from a boiling spring, 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Within it is a flowing spring. 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And arranged carpets. 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 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 was 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 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
