Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 labouring, weary, 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 They will live in an exalted garden 10 wherein they shall hear no vain talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 raised couches, 13 And chosen goblets. 14 and arranged cushions 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You do not have full control over them. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 For to Us will be their return; 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
