The Overwhelming

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِیثُ ٱلۡغَـٰشِیَةِ

Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]?

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ

[Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,

عَامِلَةࣱ نَّاصِبَةࣱ

Working [hard] and exhausted.

تَصۡلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِیَةࣰ

They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.

تُسۡقَىٰ مِنۡ عَیۡنٍ ءَانِیَةࣲ

They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

لَّیۡسَ لَهُمۡ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِیعࣲ

For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant

لَّا یُسۡمِنُ وَلَا یُغۡنِی مِن جُوعࣲ

Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ نَّاعِمَةࣱ

[Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.

لِّسَعۡیِهَا رَاضِیَةࣱ

With their effort [they are] satisfied

فِی جَنَّةٍ عَالِیَةࣲ

In an elevated garden,

لَّا تَسۡمَعُ فِیهَا لَـٰغِیَةࣰ

Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

فِیهَا عَیۡنࣱ جَارِیَةࣱ

Within it is a flowing spring.

فِیهَا سُرُرࣱ مَّرۡفُوعَةࣱ

Within it are couches raised high

وَأَكۡوَابࣱ مَّوۡضُوعَةࣱ

And cups put in place

وَنَمَارِقُ مَصۡفُوفَةࣱ

And cushions lined up

وَزَرَابِیُّ مَبۡثُوثَةٌ

And carpets spread around.

أَفَلَا یَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلۡإِبِلِ كَیۡفَ خُلِقَتۡ

Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ كَیۡفَ رُفِعَتۡ

And at the sky - how it is raised?

وَإِلَى ٱلۡجِبَالِ كَیۡفَ نُصِبَتۡ

And at the mountains - how they are erected?

وَإِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَیۡفَ سُطِحَتۡ

And at the earth - how it is spread out?

فَذَكِّرۡ إِنَّمَاۤ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرࣱ

So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.

لَّسۡتَ عَلَیۡهِم بِمُصَیۡطِرٍ

You are not over them a controller.

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ

However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

فَیُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرَ

Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

إِنَّ إِلَیۡنَاۤ إِیَابَهُمۡ

Indeed, to Us is their return.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا حِسَابَهُم

Then indeed, upon Us is their account.
