Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire. 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 They will live in an exalted garden 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 therein uplifted couches 13 And chosen goblets. 14 Cushions arranged, 15 and carpets outspread. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 And at the mountains, how firmly they are reared? 19 And at the earth, how it is outspread? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 But if any turn away and reject Allah,- 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
