Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 (Other) faces, that Day, will be joyful, 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 In a high Garden 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 therein uplifted couches 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Truly, to Us is their return; 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
