Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In a lofty garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Within it is a flowing spring. 12 and raised couches, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 And cushions ranged! 15 and carpets spread out. 16 DO, THEN, they [who deny resurrection] never gaze at the clouds pregnant with water, [and observe] how they are created? 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 You are not over them a controller. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
