Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 Glad for their effort past, 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 And goblets set at hand 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And linen spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder; 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 To Us is surely their returning; 25 and then it is for Us to call them to account. 26
