Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 They will have no food other than bitter and thorny fruit 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 and goblets set at hand, 14 And cushions lined up 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 Other than him who turns his back and denies, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
