Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Have you heard the story of the overwhelming event (the Day of Judgment)? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 well pleased with their striving, 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood, 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 Goblets set, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And carpets spread out. 16 Do they never reflect on the camels and how they were created, 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted? 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 you are not their keeper. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 To Us is surely their returning; 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
