بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم هل أتاك حديث الغاشية
Hal ataka hadeethu alghashiyati
Some faces, that Day will be humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians).

Do they not look at the camels, how they are created?

إن إلينا إيابهم
Inna ilayna iyabahum
Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning.
ثم إن علينا حسابهم
Thumma inna AAalayna hisabahum
