আল গাশিয়াহ (আচ্ছন্নকারী)

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Has there come to you the narration of the overwhelming (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)?

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 humiliated (in the Hell-fire, i.e. the faces of all disbelievers, Jews and Christians).

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

3 Labouring (hard in the worldly life by worshipping others besides Allah), weary (in the Hereafter with humility and disgrace).

3 Toiling, weary,

4 They will enter in the hot blazing Fire.

4 Scorched by burning fire,

5 They will be given to drink from a boiling spring,

5 Drinking from a boiling spring,

6 No food will there be for them but a poisonous thorny plant,

6 No food for them save bitter thorn - fruit

7 Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger.

7 Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.

8 (Other) faces that Day will be joyful,

8 In that day other faces will be calm,

9 Glad with their endeavour (for their good deeds which they did in this world, along with the true Faith of Islamic Monotheism).

9 Glad for their effort past,

10 In a lofty Paradise.

10 In a high Garden

11 Where they shall neither hear harmful speech nor falsehood.

11 Where they hear no idle speech,

12 Therein will be a running spring.

12 Wherein is a gushing spring,

13 Therein will be thrones raised high.

13 Wherein are couches raised

14 And cups set at hand.

14 And goblets set at hand

15 And cushions set in rows.

15 And cushions ranged

16 And rich carpets (all) spread out.

16 And silken carpets spread.

17 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 heaven, how it is raised?

18 And the heaven, how it is raised ?

19 And at the mountains, how they are rooted (and fixed firm)?

19 And the hills, how they are set up ?

20 And at the earth, how it is outspread?

20 And the earth, how it is spread ?

21 So remind them (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) - you are only one who reminds.

21 Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,

22 You are not a dictator over them -

22 Thou art not at all a warder over them.

23 Save the one 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 Verily, to Us will be their return;

25 Lo! unto Us is their return

26 Then verily, for Us will be their reckoning.

26 And Ours their reckoning.
