Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure. 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 They will be in a lofty Garden 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein will be a running spring, 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 And goblets set at hand 14 And cushions ranged 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder. 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
