Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 In a high Garden. 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 and goblets laid out, 14 and cushions arrayed 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 So Allah will mete out to him the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 Then it will be for Us to call them to account. 26
