بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَـٰشِيَةِ ۝١
1

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

Hal ataka hadeethu alghashiyat

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ ۝٢
2

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

Wujoohun yawma-ithin khashiAAa

عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ ۝٣
3

Working [hard] and exhausted.

AAamilatun nasiba

تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً ۝٤
4

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

Tasla naran hamiya

تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ ۝٥
5

They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

Tusqa min AAaynin aniya

لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ ۝٦
6

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

Laysa lahum taAAamun illamin dareeAA

لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ ۝٧
7

Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

La yusminu wala yughnee minjooAA

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ ۝٨
8

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

Wujoohun yawma-ithin naAAima

لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ ۝٩
9

With their effort [they are] satisfied

LisaAAyiha radiya

فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ ۝١٠
10

In an elevated garden,

Fee jannatin AAaliya

لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَـٰغِيَةً ۝١١
11

Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

La tasmaAAu feeha laghiya

فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ ۝١٢
12

Within it is a flowing spring.

Feeha AAaynun jariya

فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ ۝١٣
13

Within it are couches raised high

Feeha sururun marfooAAa

وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ ۝١٤
14

And cups put in place

Waakwabun mawdooAAa

وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ ۝١٥
15

And cushions lined up

Wanamariqu masfoofa

وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ۝١٦
16

And carpets spread around.

Wazarabiyyu mabthootha

أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ ۝١٧
17

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

Afala yanthuroona ilaal-ibili kayfa khuliqat

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ ۝١٨
18

And at the sky - how it is raised?

Wa-ila assama-i kayfarufiAAat

وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ ۝١٩
19

And at the mountains - how they are erected?

Wa-ila aljibali kayfa nusibat

وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ ۝٢٠
20

And at the earth - how it is spread out?

Wa-ila al-ardi kayfa sutihat

فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ ۝٢١
21

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

Fathakkir innama anta muthakkir

لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ ۝٢٢
22

You are not over them a controller.

Lasta AAalayhim bimusaytir

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ۝٢٣
23

However, he who turns away and disbelieves

Illa man tawalla wakafar

فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ ۝٢٤
24

Then Allāh will punish him with the greatest punishment.

FayuAAaththibuhu Allahu alAAathabaal-akbar

إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ ۝٢٥
25

Indeed, to Us is their return.

Inna ilayna iyabahum

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم ۝٢٦
26

Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

Thumma inna AAalayna hisabahum
