Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 Yet, going into the blazing fire. 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 and pleased with the result of their deeds in the past. 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 Where they hear no idle speech, 11 Wherein is a gushing spring, 12 and raised couches, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions ranged 15 and outspread carpets. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And the mountains - how they have been established? 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 For to Us will be their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
