Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 they shall have no food but thorns, 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In a high Garden. 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 raised couches, 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And cushions lined up 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 and on 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 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
