Al-Ghaashiya · The Overwhelming
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَـٰشِيَةِ ﴿١﴾
88:1Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]?
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ ﴿٢﴾
88:2[Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ ﴿٣﴾
88:3Working [hard] and exhausted.
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً ﴿٤﴾
88:4They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ ﴿٥﴾
88:5They will be given drink from a boiling spring.
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ ﴿٦﴾
88:6For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ ﴿٧﴾
88:7Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ ﴿٨﴾
88:8[Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ ﴿٩﴾
88:9With their effort [they are] satisfied
فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ ﴿١٠﴾
88:10In an elevated garden,
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَـٰغِيَةً ﴿١١﴾
88:11Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.
فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ ﴿١٢﴾
88:12Within it is a flowing spring.
فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ ﴿١٣﴾
88:13Within it are couches raised high
وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ ﴿١٤﴾
88:14And cups put in place
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ ﴿١٥﴾
88:15And cushions lined up
وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ﴿١٦﴾
88:16And carpets spread around.
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ ﴿١٧﴾
88:17Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?
وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ ﴿١٨﴾
88:18And at the sky - how it is raised?
وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ ﴿١٩﴾
88:19And at the mountains - how they are erected?
وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ ﴿٢٠﴾
88:20And at the earth - how it is spread out?
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ ﴿٢١﴾
88:21So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ ﴿٢٢﴾
88:22You are not over them a controller.
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ﴿٢٣﴾
88:23However, he who turns away and disbelieves -
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ ﴿٢٤﴾
88:24Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ ﴿٢٥﴾
88:25Indeed, to Us is their return.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم ﴿٢٦﴾
88:26Then indeed, upon Us is their account.
