Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that day (many) faces will be downcast, 2 labouring, weary, 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 Which shall neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a high Garden 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Within it is a flowing spring. 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 well-placed cushions, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Look they not at the camels, how they are created? 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 However, as for him who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
