Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 On that day (many) faces will be downcast, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 Scorched by burning fire, 4 given to drink from a boiling spring. 5 no food for them but cactus thorn 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 And goblets set at hand 14 And cushions ranged 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 Other than him who turns his back and denies, 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
