Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 no food for them but cactus thorn 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 well arranged goblets, 14 and arranged cushions 15 And silken carpets spread. 16 Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 So Allah will mete out to him the greatest punishment. 24 Verily, to Us will be their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
