Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians, etc.). 2 laboring, wornout, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 In a high Garden. 10 They shall hear therein no vain discourse; 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 and prepared goblets, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
