Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Many faces will be joyous on that day, 8 Glad for their effort past, 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 Where they hear no idle speech, 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 and cushions arrayed in rows, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Allah will punish them with the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 and then it is for Us to call them to account. 26
