Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Labouring (hard), weary,- 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 no food for them but cactus thorn 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions ranged 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
