Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 Many a face will be disgraced on that day. 2 laboring, wornout, 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 In the high empyrean, 10 They shall hear therein no vain discourse; 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 raised couches, 13 and goblets laid out, 14 cushions ranged, 15 and carpets outspread. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 You are not over them a controller. 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
