Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 in a sublime Garden, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 and goblets laid out, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 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 are not a watcher over them; 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 To Us they will all return. 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
