Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 Burning in the scorching fire, 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 No food for them save the bitterness of dry thorns, 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 Well-pleased because of their striving, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 Goblets placed (ready), 14 and cushions arrayed 15 and carpets spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And the mountains – how they have been established? 19 And the earth, how it is spread? 20 (Muhammad), preach; you are only a preacher. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 Other than him who turns his back and denies, 23 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Verily, to Us will be their return; 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
