Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 They will live in an exalted garden 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 with a flowing spring, 12 In which are high thrones. 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And the mountains, how they were fixed; 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Truly, to Us is their return; 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
