Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 Faces on that day humbled, 2 Laboring, toiling, 3 The while they enter the Blazing Fire,- 4 given to drink from a boiling spring. 5 No food shall be theirs save bitter thorn, 6 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 Glad for their effort past, 9 In a lofty garden, 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein shall be a spring running! 12 Within it are couches raised high 13 well arranged goblets, 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and carpets spread out. 16 What, do they not consider how the camel was created, 17 and on the sky, how it is raised aloft, 18 how the mountains were hoisted, 19 And the earth - how it has been spread out? 20 Therefore advise; indeed you are a proclaimer of advice. The Holy Prophet is a Remembrance from Allah. 21 thou canst not compel them [to believe]. 22 But whoever will turn away (from the Truth), 23 God will punish them with the greatest torment. 24 Surely to Us is their turning back, 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
