আল গাশিয়া (আচ্ছন্নকারী)

1 Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity?

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming ?

2 (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast,

2 On that day (many) faces will be downcast,

3 Laboring, toiling,

3 Toiling, weary,

4 Entering into burning fire,

4 Scorched by burning fire,

5 Made to drink from a boiling spring.

5 Drinking from a boiling spring,

6 They shall have no food but of thorns,

6 No food for them save bitter thorn - fruit

7 Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger.

7 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.

8 (Other) faces on that day shall be happy,

8 In that day other faces will be calm,

9 Well - pleased because of their striving,

9 Glad for their effort past,

10 In a lofty garden,

10 In a high Garden

11 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk.

11 Where they hear no idle speech,

12 Therein is a fountain flowing,

12 Wherein is a gushing spring,

13 Therein are thrones raised high,

13 Wherein are couches raised

14 And drinking - cups ready placed,

14 And goblets set at hand

15 And cushions set in a row,

15 And cushions ranged

16 And carpets spread out.

16 And silken carpets spread.

17 Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created?

17 Will they not regard the camels, how they are created ?

18 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft,

18 And the heaven, how it is raised ?

19 And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed,

19 And the hills, how they are set up ?

20 And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse?

20 And the earth, how it is spread ?

21 Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder.

21 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,

22 You are not a watcher over them;

22 Thou art not at all a warder over them.

23 But whoever turns back and disbelieves,

23 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth,

24 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement.

24 Allah will punish him with direst punishment.

25 Surely to Us is their turning back,

25 Lo! unto Us is their return

26 Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account.

26 And Ours their reckoning.
