1 Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event)?

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

3 Labouring (hard), weary, -

3 Laboring, toiling,

4 The while they enter the Blazing Fire, -

4 Entering into burning fire,

5 The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring,

5 Made to drink from a boiling spring.

6 No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari'

6 They shall have no food but of thorns,

7 Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger.

8 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful,

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

9 Pleased with their striving, -

9 Well - pleased because of their striving,

10 In a Garden on high,

10 In a lofty garden,

11 Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity:

11 Wherein you shall not hear vain talk.

12 Therein will be a bubbling spring:

12 Therein is a fountain flowing,

13 Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high,

13 Therein are thrones raised high,

14 Goblets placed (ready),

14 And drinking - cups ready placed,

15 And cushions set in rows,

15 And cushions set in a row,

16 And rich carpets (all) spread out.

16 And carpets spread out.

17 Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made? -

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

18 And at the Sky, how it is raised high? -

18 And the heaven, how it is reared aloft,

19 And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm? -

19 And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed,

20 And at the Earth, how it is spread out?

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

21 Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.

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

22 Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs.

22 You are not a watcher over them;

23 But if any turn away and reject Allah, -

23 But whoever turns back and disbelieves,

24 Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment,

24 Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement.

25 For to Us will be their return;

25 Surely to Us is their turning back,

26 Then it will be for Us to call them to account.

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