Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace). 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 and arranged cushions 15 And carpets spread out. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 God will punish them with the greatest torment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
