Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces will on that Day be downcast, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 and will be made to drink from a boiling spring, 5 they shall have no food but thorns, 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 Many a face will be in serenity on that day. 8 well pleased with the result of their striving, 9 in a sublime garden, 10 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood, 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions lined up 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 and then it is for Us to call them to account. 26
