Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 be toiling and worn-out; 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant, 6 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 They will live in an exalted garden 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 raised couches, 13 and prepared goblets, 14 well-placed cushions, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do they never reflect on the camels and how they were created, 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And the earth, how it was spread out? 20 So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, 21 You are not a dictator over them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 God will punish them with the greatest torment. 24 Verily, to Us will be their return; 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
