Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 And drinking-cups ready placed, 14 And cushions ranged! 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains, how firmly they are reared? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
