Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians, etc.). 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 (Other) faces, that Day, will be joyful, 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In a lofty garden, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 and prepared goblets, 14 And cushions lined up 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 how the earth was outstretched? 20 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
