Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 They will live in an exalted garden 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 In which are high thrones. 13 And chosen goblets. 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 And the mountains: how they were 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 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 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
