English - Chapter 88 - Al-Ghashiyah

Hath the news of the overwhelming day of judgment reached thee

The countenances of some, on that day, shall be cast down

labouring and toiling

They shall be cast into scorching fire to be broiled

They shall be given to drink of a boiling fountain

They shall have no food, but of dry thorns and thistles

which shall not fatten, neither shall they satisfy hunger

But the countenances of others, on that day, shall be joyful

well pleased with their past endeavour

They shall be placed in a lofty garden

wherein thou shalt hear no vain discourse

Therein shall be raised beds

and goblets placed before them

and cushions laid in order

and carpets ready spread

Do they not consider the camels, how they are created

and the heaven, how it is raised

and the mountains, how they are fixed

and the earth, how it is extended

Wherefore warn thy people; for thou art a warner only

Thou art not impowered to act with authority over them

But whoever shall turn back, and disbelieve

God shall punish him with the greater punishment of the life to come

Verily unto us shall they return

Then shall it be our part to bring them to account
