Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Hath there come unto thee the story of the Enveloping Event? 1 On that Day faces shall be humbled, 2 Labouring, striving hard. 3 they shall enter a burning Fire 4 Given water from the boiling spring to drink. 5 They shall have no food but of thorns, 6 unfattening, unappeasing hunger. 7 Some faces on that Day will be radiant, 8 With their effort [they are] satisfied 9 In a lofty Paradise. 10 wherein thou wilt hear no empty talk. 11 Therein will be a bubbling spring: 12 Wherein are couches raised 13 and goblets laid out, 14 and cushions ranged, 15 And rich carpets (all) spread out. 16 Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created? 17 And how the heaven was raised up, 18 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?- 19 and how the earth is spread out? 20 So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, 21 you are not their keeper. 22 As for those who turn their back and disbelieve, 23 him will God cause to suffer the greatest suffering [in the life to come]: 24 for behold, unto Us will be their return, 25 Then indeed, upon Us is their account. 26
