Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Travailing, worn. 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 given to drink from a boiling spring. 5 They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns 6 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism). 9 in a sublime Garden, 10 hearing there no babble; 11 with a flowing spring, 12 and raised couches, 13 And goblets ready placed! 14 cushions ranged, 15 and well spread carpets. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 And the mountains: how they were fixed? 19 And how the earth was outstretched? 20 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish. 21 Thou art not at all a warder over them. 22 But whoever turns back and disbelieves, 23 Allah will punish him with direst punishment. 24 To Us they will all return. 25 then upon Us shall rest their reckoning. 26
