Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Certainly the news of the calamity that will overwhelm has come to you! 1 On that day the faces of some people will be humbly cast down, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 and will be made to drink from a fiercely boiling spring. 5 They will have no food except bitter thorn, 6 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. 7 [And] some faces will on that Day shine with bliss, 8 Well-pleased with their endeavour, 9 In a high Garden. 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Countless springs will flow therein, 12 And within it are couches placed on high, 13 and goblets laid out, 14 Cushions arranged, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 And the earth: how it was spread out? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, 23 will be punished by God with the greatest punishment. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
