Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 They will suffer the heat of the blazing fire 4 their drink shall be from a boiling spring. 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 Neither nourishing nor banishing hunger. 7 Many faces will be joyous on that day, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 in a garden sublime, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Within it is a flowing spring. 12 raised couches, 13 And cups put in place 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 and carpets outspread. 16 Have they not looked at how the camel is created, 17 how the heavens are raised up high, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 Other than him who turns his back and denies, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
