Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that day (many) faces will be downcast, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 In the high empyrean, 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
