Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most 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 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 well arranged goblets, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 However, as for him who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning. 26
