Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
HAS NEWS OF the Overpowering Event reached you? 1 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast, 2 Toiling, weary, 3 about to enter a glowing fire, 4 They will be given drink from a boiling spring. 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 which will neither fatten them nor satisfy them. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 Pleased with their striving,- 9 in a sublime Garden, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 In which are high thrones. 13 and goblets laid out, 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 how heaven was lifted up, 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. 21 You are not charged to oversee them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves - 23 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment, 24 To Us they will all return. 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
