Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
HAS THERE COME unto thee the tiding of the Overshadowing Event? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 Entering into burning fire, 4 that is fueled from a tremendously hot fountain, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 In a high Garden. 10 where they will hear no idle talk. 11 Therein will be a flowing spring, 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 And arranged carpets. 15 And carpets spread out. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And at the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 you are not their keeper. 22 But he who turns his back, and disbelieves, 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
