Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 labouring, weary, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 they shall have no food but thorns, 6 which gives no strength and neither stills hunger. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 and raised couches, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 and cushions arrayed 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 how the earth was outstretched? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 you are not their keeper. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
