Al-Ghashiyah

Quran Text — Al-Ghashiyah

88:1 Did you hear of the Overwhelming Event?

88:2 Some faces on that day will be humbled.

88:3 Laboring and exhausted.

88:4 Exposed to a fiercely blazing fire.

88:5 Made to drink from a flaming spring.

88:6 Their only food will be bitter thorns.

88:7 Which neither nourishes nor satisfies hunger.

88:8 Other faces on that day will be joyful.

88:9 Satisfied with their endeavors.

88:10 In a high and lofty paradise.

88:11 In it, you will hear no nonsense.

88:12 Within it, a spring will flow.

88:13 Therein, are raised couches.

88:14 With cups set at hand.

88:15 And cushions lined up.

88:16 And carpets spread out.

88:17 Don’t they look at the camels, and how they were created?

88:18 And the sky, how it is raised?

88:19 And the mountains, how they are anchored?

88:20 And the earth, how it is spread out?

88:21 So remind, for you are simply a reminder.

88:22 You are not a controller over them.

88:23 Yet whoever turns away and disbelieves.

88:24 Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

88:25 To Us is their return.

88:26 Then, upon Us is their judgment.
