Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?
Al-Ghashiyah 1
Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated,
Al-Ghashiyah 2
Labouring (hard), weary,-
Al-Ghashiyah 3
The while they enter the Blazing Fire,-
Al-Ghashiyah 4
The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,
Al-Ghashiyah 5
No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari'
Al-Ghashiyah 6
Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.
Al-Ghashiyah 7
(Other) faces that Day will be joyful,
Al-Ghashiyah 8
Pleased with their striving,-
Al-Ghashiyah 9
In a Garden on high,
Al-Ghashiyah 10
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:
Al-Ghashiyah 11
Therein will be a bubbling spring:
Al-Ghashiyah 12
Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,
Al-Ghashiyah 13
Goblets placed (ready),
Al-Ghashiyah 14
And cushions set in rows,
Al-Ghashiyah 15
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
Al-Ghashiyah 16
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?-
Al-Ghashiyah 17
And at the Sky, how it is raised high?-
Al-Ghashiyah 18
And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?-
Al-Ghashiyah 19
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
Al-Ghashiyah 20
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
Al-Ghashiyah 21
Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs.
Al-Ghashiyah 22
But if any turn away and reject Allah,-
Al-Ghashiyah 23
Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,
Al-Ghashiyah 24
For to Us will be their return;
Al-Ghashiyah 25
Then it will be for Us to call them to account.
Al-Ghashiyah 26
