আল গাশিয়া (আচ্ছন্নকারী)

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

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

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

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

3 Working [hard] and exhausted.

3 Toiling, weary,

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

4 Scorched by burning fire,

5 They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

5 Drinking from a boiling spring,

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

6 No food for them save bitter thorn - fruit

7 Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

7 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.

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

8 In that day other faces will be calm,

9 With their effort [they are] satisfied

9 Glad for their effort past,

10 In an elevated garden,

10 In a high Garden

11 Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

11 Where they hear no idle speech,

12 Within it is a flowing spring.

12 Wherein is a gushing spring,

13 Within it are couches raised high

13 Wherein are couches raised

14 And cups put in place

14 And goblets set at hand

15 And cushions lined up

15 And cushions ranged

16 And carpets spread around.

16 And silken carpets spread.

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

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

18 And at the sky - how it is raised?

18 And the heaven, how it is raised ?

19 And at the mountains - how they are erected?

19 And the hills, how they are set up ?

20 And at the earth - how it is spread out?

20 And the earth, how it is spread ?

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

21 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,

22 You are not over them a controller.

22 Thou art not at all a warder over them.

23 However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

23 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth,

24 Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

24 Allah will punish him with direst punishment.

25 Indeed, to Us is their return.

25 Lo! unto Us is their return

26 Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

26 And Ours their reckoning.
