Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 In the high empyrean, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 with a flowing spring, 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. (The Holy Prophet is a Remembrance from Allah.) 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
