Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 labouring, weary, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In a high Garden. 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 And chosen goblets. 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 and how the mountains were firmly fixed? 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 You are not over them a controller. 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
