Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 Some faces will on that Day be downcast, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 no food for them but cactus thorn 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 Where they hear no idle speech, 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 Therein are thrones raised high, 13 And cups put in place 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And linen spread out. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 And the mountains, how they were fixed; 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 For to Us will be their return; 25 and then it is for Us to call them to account. 26
