Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 labouring, toilworn, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood, 11 therein a running fountain, 12 therein uplifted couches 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 So Allah will mete out to him the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
