Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)? 1 Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 Goblets set, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 and outspread carpets. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
