Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 Scorched by burning fire, 4 Given to drink of a spring fiercely boiling. 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 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 garden sublime, 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein will be a running spring, 12 therein uplifted couches 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 And linen spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 You do not have full control over them. 22 But whoever turns back and denies the truth, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Verily, to Us will be their return; 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
