Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Have you received the news of the Enveloper? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 Burning in the scorching fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 no food for them except thorny plants 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 Faces on that day jocund, 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In an elevated garden, 10 Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity: 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 and raised couches, 13 and goblets placed ready, 14 And cushions ranged! 15 And rich carpets spread. 16 Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? 17 And the sky: how it was raised high? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And the earth – how it has been spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 and are not invested with the authority to compel them. 22 Except whoever turns away and disbelieves – 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Indeed, to Us is their return. 25 In Our hands are their accounts. 26
