Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 Some faces will on that Day be downcast, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 And drinking-cups ready placed, 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Truly, to Us is their return; 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
