Surah Al-Ghashiyah (Overwhelming Event)

Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]?
[Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,
Working [hard] and exhausted.
They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.
They will be given drink from a boiling spring.
For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant
Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.
[Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.
With their effort [they are] satisfied
In an elevated garden,
Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity.
Therein is a fountain flowing,
Therein are thrones raised high,
And goblets placed (ready),
And Cushions set in rows,
And rich carpets (all) spread out.
Do they not look at camels, how they are created?
And at the Sky, how it is raised high?
And at the mountains, how they are fixed firm?
And at the Earth, how it is spread out?
Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
Thou art not one to manage (men’s) affairs.
But whoever turns back and disbelieves,
Allah will punish him with a mighty punishment.
Surely to Us will be their Return;
Then surely upon Us will be the taking of their account.
