Surah Al-Ghashiya (The Overwhelming) - Aya count 26
هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِیثُ ٱلۡغَـٰشِیَةِ ﴿١﴾
Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?
وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ ﴿٢﴾
Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated,
عَامِلَةࣱ نَّاصِبَةࣱ ﴿٣﴾
Labouring (hard), weary,-
تَصۡلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِیَةࣰ ﴿٤﴾
The while they enter the Blazing Fire,-
تُسۡقَىٰ مِنۡ عَیۡنٍ ءَانِیَةࣲ ﴿٥﴾
The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,
لَّیۡسَ لَهُمۡ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِیعࣲ ﴿٦﴾
No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari'
لَّا یُسۡمِنُ وَلَا یُغۡنِی مِن جُوعࣲ ﴿٧﴾
Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.
وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ نَّاعِمَةࣱ ﴿٨﴾
(Other) faces that Day will be joyful,
لِّسَعۡیِهَا رَاضِیَةࣱ ﴿٩﴾
Pleased with their striving,-
فِی جَنَّةٍ عَالِیَةࣲ ﴿١٠﴾
لَّا تَسۡمَعُ فِیهَا لَـٰغِیَةࣰ ﴿١١﴾
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:
فِیهَا عَیۡنࣱ جَارِیَةࣱ ﴿١٢﴾
Therein will be a bubbling spring:
فِیهَا سُرُرࣱ مَّرۡفُوعَةࣱ ﴿١٣﴾
Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,
وَأَكۡوَابࣱ مَّوۡضُوعَةࣱ ﴿١٤﴾
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصۡفُوفَةࣱ ﴿١٥﴾
And cushions set in rows,
وَزَرَابِیُّ مَبۡثُوثَةٌ ﴿١٦﴾
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
أَفَلَا یَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلۡإِبِلِ كَیۡفَ خُلِقَتۡ ﴿١٧﴾
Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made?-
وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ كَیۡفَ رُفِعَتۡ ﴿١٨﴾
And at the Sky, how it is raised high?-
وَإِلَى ٱلۡجِبَالِ كَیۡفَ نُصِبَتۡ ﴿١٩﴾
And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?-
وَإِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَیۡفَ سُطِحَتۡ ﴿٢٠﴾
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
فَذَكِّرۡ إِنَّمَاۤ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرࣱ ﴿٢١﴾
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
لَّسۡتَ عَلَیۡهِم بِمُصَیۡطِرٍ ﴿٢٢﴾
Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs.
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ﴿٢٣﴾
But if any turn away and reject Allah,-
فَیُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرَ ﴿٢٤﴾
Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,
إِنَّ إِلَیۡنَاۤ إِیَابَهُمۡ ﴿٢٥﴾
For to Us will be their return;
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا حِسَابَهُم ﴿٢٦﴾
Then it will be for Us to call them to account.
