Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Have you heard about the Overwhelming Event? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 with their striving well-pleased, 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 Goblets set, 14 And cushions ranged! 15 and carpets outspread. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the heavens, how it was raised high; 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder. 21 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs. 22 But whosoever will turn back and disbelieve 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 Then indeed only upon Us is their reckoning. 26
