Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians, etc.). 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 given to drink from a boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 In a high Garden. 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 and raised couches, 13 and goblets set forth 14 and cushions ranged, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
