Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper? 1 [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled, 2 Labouring, wearied out, 3 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire, 4 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring, 5 For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant 6 Which neither give strength nor satisfy the hunger. 7 In that day other faces will be calm, 8 Rejoicing over their efforts. 9 They shall be in a Garden lofty: 10 Never hearing idle talk. 11 There is a stream of running water in it; 12 [and] there will be thrones [of happiness] raised high, 13 And cups set at hand. 14 and arranged cushions 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 DO, THEN, they [who deny resurrection] never gaze at the clouds pregnant with water, [and observe] how they are created? 17 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft, 18 And the hills, how they are set up? 19 And at the Earth, how it is spread out? 20 Remind them; you are surely a reminder. 21 Thou art not over them a warden. 22 However, he who turns away and disbelieves - 23 Him Allah shall torment with the greatest torment. 24 Indeed only towards Us is their return 25 Then, surely, it is for Us to call them to account. 26
