Plain text of Sura 88: Overwhelming (Al-Ghaasheyah)

88:0 In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

88:1 Are you aware of the Overwhelming?

88:2 Faces on that day will be shamed.

88:3 Laboring and exhausted.

88:4 Suffering in a blazing Hellfire.

88:5 Drinking from a flaming spring.

88:6 They will have no food except the useless variety.

88:7 It never nourishes, nor satisfies hunger.

88:8 Other faces on that day will be full of joy.

88:9 Satisfied with their work.

88:10 In an exalted Paradise.

88:11 In it, no nonsense is heard.

88:12 In it, a spring flows.

88:13 In it, there are luxurious furnishings.

88:14 And drinks made available.

88:15 And pitchers in rows.

88:16 And carpets throughout.

88:17 Why do they not reflect on the camels and how they are created?

88:18 And the sky and how it is raised.

88:19 And the mountains and how they are constructed.

88:20 And the earth and how it is built.

88:21 You shall remind, for your mission is to deliver this reminder.

88:22 You have no power over them.

88:23 As for those who turn away and disbelieve.

88:24 GOD will commit them to the great retribution.

88:25 To us is their ultimate destiny.

88:26 Then we will call them to account.
