Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 therein uplifted couches 13 and goblets set at hand, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 And the mountains – how they have been established? 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder; 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
