Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
HAS NEWS OF the Overpowering Event reached you? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 troubled and tired as a result of their deeds in the past. 3 They shall roast into the scalding Fire, 4 and will be made to drink from a boiling spring, 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 (Whereas other) faces on that Day will be joyful, 8 well-pleased with [the fruit of] their striving, 9 In a high Garden. 10 where they will hear no idle talk, 11 In it there shall be a flowing spring, 12 raised couches, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 and outspread carpets. 16 So do they not see the camel – how it has been created? 17 And at the heaven, how it is raised? 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse? 20 Therefore remind, you are only a Reminder. 21 You are not a warden over them, 22 However, those who turn away and disbelieve, 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 Indeed, to Us they shall return, 25 Then verily on Us is their reckoning. 26
