Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 how the earth was outstretched? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 You do not have full control over them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
