Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Have you heard the story of the overwhelming event (the Day of Judgment)? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace). 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 Made to drink from a boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 In it is a flowing spring. 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 well arranged goblets, 14 and arranged cushions 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted? 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 In which case he will be punished by God with the severest punishment. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Ours is surely then to reckon with them. 26
