আল গাশিয়াহ

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

1 Hal ataka hadeethu alghashiyati

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

2 Wujoohun yawmaithin khashiAAatun

3 Toiling, weary,

3 AAamilatun nasibatun

4 Scorched by burning fire,

4 Tasla naran hamiyatan

5 Drinking from a boiling spring,

5 Tusqa min AAaynin aniyatin

6 No food for them save bitter thorn - fruit

6 Laysa lahum taAAamun illa min dareeAAin

7 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.

7 La yusminu wala yughnee min jooAAin

8 In that day other faces will be calm,

8 Wujoohun yawmaithin naAAimatun

9 Glad for their effort past,

9 LisaAAyiha radiyatun

10 In a high Garden

10 Fee jannatin AAaliyatin

11 Where they hear no idle speech,

11 La tasmaAAu feeha laghiyatan

12 Wherein is a gushing spring,

12 Feeha AAaynun jariyatun

13 Wherein are couches raised

13 Feeha sururun marfooAAatun

14 And goblets set at hand

14 Waakwabun mawdooAAatun

15 And cushions ranged

15 Wanamariqu masfoofatun

16 And silken carpets spread.

16 Wazarabiyyu mabthoothatun

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

17 Afala yanthuroona ila alibili kayfa khuliqat

18 And the heaven, how it is raised ?

18 Waila alssamai kayfa rufiAAat

19 And the hills, how they are set up ?

19 Waila aljibali kayfa nusibat

20 And the earth, how it is spread ?

20 Waila alardi kayfa sutihat

21 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,

21 Fathakkir innama anta muthakkirun

22 Thou art not at all a warder over them.

22 Lasta AAalayhim bimusaytirin

23 But whoso is averse and disbelieveth,

23 Illa man tawalla wakafara

24 Allah will punish him with direst punishment.

24 FayuAAaththibuhu Allahu alAAathaba alakbara

25 Lo! unto Us is their return

25 Inna ilayna iyabahum

26 And Ours their reckoning.

26 Thumma inna AAalayna hisabahum
