Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; 4 Drinking from a boiling spring, 5 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari' 6 which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure. 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 and couches raised high, 13 And cups put in place 14 and arranged cushions 15 And carpets spread around. 16 So do they not see the camel - how it has been created? 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 how the mountains are set firm, 19 and on the earth, how it is spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 In which case he will be punished by God with the severest punishment. 24 Certainly, it is to Us that they will return. 25 And Ours their reckoning. 26
