Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Other) faces, that Day, will be joyful, 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 In the high empyrean, 10 wherein they will not hear any vain talk. 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 and couches raised high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 And at the sky, how it is raised aloft? 18 and on the mountains, how they are firmly set up, 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
