Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Working [hard] and exhausted. 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 watered at a boiling fountain, 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 well-pleased with their striving. 9 in a sublime garden, 10 In which they will not hear any lewd speech. 11 Therein is a fountain flowing, 12 raised couches, 13 and goblets laid out, 14 and cushions arrayed in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And at the sky - how it is raised? 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 And so, [O Prophet,] exhort them; thy task is only to exhort: 21 You are not at all a guardian over them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment. 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
