1 | Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming ? |
2 | On that day (many) faces will be downcast, |
3 | Toiling, weary, |
4 | Scorched by burning fire, |
5 | Drinking from a boiling spring, |
6 | No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit |
7 | Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. |
8 | In that day other faces will be calm, |
9 | Glad for their effort past, |
10 | In a high Garden |
11 | Where they hear no idle speech, |
12 | Wherein is a gushing spring, |
13 | Wherein are couches raised |
14 | And goblets set at hand |
15 | And cushions ranged |
16 | And silken carpets spread. |
17 | Will they not regard the camels, how they are created ? |
18 | And the heaven, how it is raised ? |
19 | And the hills, how they are set up ? |
20 | And the earth, how it is spread ? |
21 | Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer, |
22 | Thou art not at all a warder over them. |
23 | But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, |
24 | Allah will punish him with direst punishment. |
25 | Lo! unto Us is their return |
26 | And Ours their reckoning. |
