بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَٰشِيَةِ ﴿١﴾

Hal ataaka hadeesul ghaashiyah

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

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ ﴿٢﴾

Wujoohuny yawma 'izin khaashi'ah

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

عَامِلَةٌۭ نَّاصِبَةٌۭ ﴿٣﴾

'Aamilatun naasibah

3Working [hard] and exhausted.

تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةًۭ ﴿٤﴾

Taslaa naaran haamiyah

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

تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍۢ ﴿٥﴾

Tusqaa min 'aynin aaniyah

5They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍۢ ﴿٦﴾

Laisa lahum ta'aamun illaa min daree'

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

لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍۢ ﴿٧﴾

Laa yusminu wa laa yughnee min joo'

7Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاعِمَةٌۭ ﴿٨﴾

Wujoohuny yawma 'izin naa'imah

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

لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌۭ ﴿٩﴾

Lisa'yihaa raadiyah

9With their effort [they are] satisfied

فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍۢ ﴿١٠﴾

Fee jannatin 'aaliyah

10In an elevated garden,

لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةًۭ ﴿١١﴾

Laa tasma'u feehaa laaghiyah

11Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

فِيهَا عَيْنٌۭ جَارِيَةٌۭ ﴿١٢﴾

Feehaa 'aynun jaariyah

12Within it is a flowing spring.

فِيهَا سُرُرٌۭ مَّرْفُوعَةٌۭ ﴿١٣﴾

Feehaa sururum marfoo'ah

13Within it are couches raised high

وَأَكْوَابٌۭ مَّوْضُوعَةٌۭ ﴿١٤﴾

Wa akwaabum mawdoo 'ah

14And cups put in place

وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌۭ ﴿١٥﴾

Wa namaariqu masfoofah

15And cushions lined up

وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ﴿١٦﴾

Wa zaraabiyyu mabsoosah

16And carpets spread around.

أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ ﴿١٧﴾

Afalaa yanzuroona ilalibili kaifa khuliqat

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

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ ﴿١٨﴾

Wa ilas samaaa'i kaifa rufi'at

18And at the sky - how it is raised?

وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ ﴿١٩﴾

Wa ilal jibaali kaifa nusibat

19And at the mountains - how they are erected?

وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ ﴿٢٠﴾

Wa ilal ardi kaifa sutihat

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

فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌۭ ﴿٢١﴾

Fazakkir innama anta Muzakkir

21So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.

لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ ﴿٢٢﴾

Lasta 'alaihim bimusaitir

22You are not over them a controller.

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ﴿٢٣﴾

Illaa man tawallaa wa kafar

23However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ ﴿٢٤﴾

Fa yu'azzibuhul laahul 'azaabal akbar

24Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ ﴿٢٥﴾

Innaa ilainaaa iyaabahum

25Indeed, to Us is their return.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم ﴿٢٦﴾

Summa inna 'alainaa hisaabahum

26Then indeed, upon Us is their account.
