Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 Many faces will be contrite on that day, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 in a garden sublime, 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 therein a running fountain, 12 Therein shall be couches elevated! 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 and cushions arrayed 15 and carpets outspread. 16 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created? 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And at the earth - how it is spread out? 20 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 God will punish them with the greatest torment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
