Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection); 1 Faces on that Day shall be downcast, 2 labouring, weary, 3 (Yet) Going into the blazing fire. 4 given to drink from a boiling spring. 5 There is no food for them except thorns of fire. 6 which neither sustains, nor satisfy hunger. 7 On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, 8 Well-pleased because of their striving, 9 in a Garden on high, 10 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk. 11 A gushing fountain shall be there 12 Therein will be thrones raised high, 13 and goblets set forth 14 And cushions set in rows, 15 And carpets ready spread, 16 Do they not then ponder how the clouds were formed; 17 And at the Sky, how it is raised high?- 18 And at the mountains - how they are erected? 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 So remind them (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)), you are only a one who reminds. 21 You are not over them a controller. 22 Save the one who turns away and disbelieves 23 God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement. 24 Surely to Us is their return; 25 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account. 26
