Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
HAS THERE COME unto thee the tiding of the Overshadowing Event? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 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 a lofty Paradise. 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 and raised couches, 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoever turns back and denies the truth, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
