Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 In a high Garden 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Within it is a flowing spring. 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 and prepared goblets, 14 cushions ranged, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 You are not over them a controller. 22 However, as for him who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
