Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 labouring, toilworn, 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 raised couches, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And carpets spread around. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heaven – how it has been raised? 18 And at the mountains, how firmly they are reared? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 You are not a watcher over them; 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
