Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 In the high empyrean, 10 Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity: 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 and raised couches, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions ranged! 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 In which case he will be punished by God with the severest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
