Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 Made to drink water from the boiling hot spring. 5 No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit 6 unfattening, unappeasing hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 With their endeavour well pleased. 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood, 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high, 13 And chosen goblets. 14 and cushions ranged, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 Verily unto Us is their return. 25 And Ours their reckoning. 26
