| 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. |
