Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated, 2 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace). 3 roasting at a scorching Fire 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 in a sublime garden, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 and prepared goblets, 14 And cushions lined up 15 and rich carpets levelled out. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. (The Holy Prophet is a Remembrance from Allah.) 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 and then it is for Us to call them to account. 26
