Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 There is a stream of running water in it; 12 In which are high thrones. 13 and goblets set at hand, 14 And arranged carpets. 15 and outspread carpets. 16 Do they never reflect on the camels and how they were created, 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 You do not have full control over them. 22 However, as for him who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 For to Us will be their return; 25 Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning. 26
