Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire. 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 And cushions set in a row, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?- 17 And the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains, how they are rooted? 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Admonish thou then; thou art but an admonisher. 21 thou art not charged to oversee them. 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Lo! unto Us is their return 25 and verily, It is for Us to call them to account. 26
