Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Many faces will be contrite on that day, 2 labouring, weary, 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a Garden on high, 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 and raised couches, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 cushions ranged, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 Allah will punish them with the greatest punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
