Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 On that Day, there shall be downcast faces, 2 laboring, wornout, 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 However, on that day the faces of other people will be happy. 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 in a Garden on high, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 There is a stream of running water in it; 12 In which are high thrones. 13 and prepared goblets, 14 and cushions arrayed in rows, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 But whoever will turn away (from the Truth), 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
