Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Many a face will be disgraced on that day. 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a high Garden. 10 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 and raised couches, 13 and prepared goblets, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 So, [O Prophet] exhort them: your task is only to exhort, 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 But whoever turns back and denies the truth, 23 Allah will chastise him with the most terrible chastisement. 24 To Us is surely their returning; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
