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 carts spread
17 . Will they not regard the camels , how they are created?
18 . And the heaven , how it is railed?
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 .
