{بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغَاشِيَةِ}

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

{وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَاشِعَةٌ}

(2) [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,

{عَامِلَةٌ نَاصِبَةٌ}

(3) Working [hard] and exhausted.[1910]

{تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً}

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

{تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ آنِيَةٍ}

(5) They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

{لَيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنْ ضَرِيعٍ}

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

{لَا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِي مِنْ جُوعٍ}

(7) Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

{وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَاعِمَةٌ}

(8) [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.

{لِسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ}

(9) With their effort [they are] satisfied

{فِي جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ}

(10) In an elevated garden,

{لَا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَاغِيَةً}

(11) Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.[1911]

{فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ}

(12) Within it is a flowing spring.

{فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَرْفُوعَةٌ}

(13) Within it are couches raised high

{وَأَكْوَابٌ مَوْضُوعَةٌ}

(14) And cups put in place

{وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ}

(15) And cushions lined up

{وَزَرَابِيُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ}

(16) And carpets spread around.

{أَفَلَا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى الْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ}

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

{وَإِلَى السَّمَاءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ}

(18) And at the sky - how it is raised?

{وَإِلَى الْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ}

(19) And at the mountains - how they are erected?

{وَإِلَى الْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ}

(20) And at the earth - how it is spread out?

{فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَا أَنْتَ مُذَكِّرٌ}

(21) So remind, [O Muḥammad]; you are only a reminder.

{لَسْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِمُصَيْطِرٍ}

(22) You are not over them a controller.

{إِلَّا مَنْ تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ}

(23) However, he who turns away and disbelieves

{فَيُعَذِّبُهُ اللَّهُ الْعَذَابَ الْأَكْبَرَ}

(24) Then Allāh will punish him with the greatest punishment.

{إِنَّ إِلَيْنَا إِيَابَهُمْ}

(25) Indeed, to Us is their return.

{ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُمْ}

(26) Then indeed, upon Us is their account.
