Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Given to drink of a spring fiercely boiling. 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 In which are high thrones. 13 and prepared goblets, 14 And cushions ranged! 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed, 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 And so, [O Prophet,] exhort them; thy task is only to exhort: 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
