هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَٰشِيَةِ﴿١﴾
Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper?
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ﴿٢﴾
Faces on that day humbled,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ﴿٣﴾
labouring, toilworn,
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً﴿٤﴾
roasting at a scorching fire,
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ﴿٥﴾
watered at a boiling fountain,
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ﴿٦﴾
no food for them but cactus thorn
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ﴿٧﴾
unfattening, unappeasing hunger.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ﴿٨﴾
Faces on that day jocund,
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ﴿٩﴾
with their striving well-pleased,
فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ﴿١٠﴾
in a sublime Garden,
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةً﴿١١﴾
hearing there no babble;
فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ﴿١٢﴾
therein a running fountain,
فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ﴿١٣﴾
therein uplifted couches
وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ﴿١٤﴾
and goblets set forth
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ﴿١٥﴾
and cushions arrayed
وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ﴿١٦﴾
and carpets outspread.
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ﴿١٧﴾
What, do they not consider how the camel was created,
وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ﴿١٨﴾
how heaven was lifted up,
وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ﴿١٩﴾
how the mountains were hoisted,
وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ﴿٢٠﴾
how the earth was outstretched?
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ﴿٢١﴾
Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder;
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ﴿٢٢﴾
thou art not charged to oversee them.
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ﴿٢٣﴾
But he who turns his back, and disbelieves,
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ﴿٢٤﴾
God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement.
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ﴿٢٥﴾
Truly, to Us is their return;
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم﴿٢٦﴾
then upon Us shall rest their reckoning.
