بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِیثُ ٱلۡغَـٰشِیَةِ

Hast thou received the story of the Enveloper?

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ خَـٰشِعَةٌ

Faces on that day humbled,

عَامِلَةࣱ نَّاصِبَةࣱ

labouring, toilworn,

تَصۡلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِیَةࣰ

roasting at a scorching fire,

تُسۡقَىٰ مِنۡ عَیۡنٍ ءَانِیَةࣲ

watered at a boiling fountain,

لَّیۡسَ لَهُمۡ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِیعࣲ

no food for them but cactus thorn

لَّا یُسۡمِنُ وَلَا یُغۡنِی مِن جُوعࣲ

unfattening, unappeasing hunger.

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ نَّاعِمَةࣱ

Faces on that day jocund,

لِّسَعۡیِهَا رَاضِیَةࣱ

with their striving well-pleased,

فِی جَنَّةٍ عَالِیَةࣲ

in a sublime Garden,

لَّا تَسۡمَعُ فِیهَا لَـٰغِیَةࣰ

hearing there no babble;

فِیهَا عَیۡنࣱ جَارِیَةࣱ

therein a running fountain,

فِیهَا سُرُرࣱ مَّرۡفُوعَةࣱ

therein uplifted couches

وَأَكۡوَابࣱ مَّوۡضُوعَةࣱ

and goblets set forth

وَنَمَارِقُ مَصۡفُوفَةࣱ

and cushions arrayed

وَزَرَابِیُّ مَبۡثُوثَةٌ

and carpets outspread.

أَفَلَا یَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلۡإِبِلِ كَیۡفَ خُلِقَتۡ

What, do they not consider how the camel was created,

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ كَیۡفَ رُفِعَتۡ

how heaven was lifted up,

وَإِلَى ٱلۡجِبَالِ كَیۡفَ نُصِبَتۡ

how the mountains were hoisted,

وَإِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَیۡفَ سُطِحَتۡ

how the earth was outstretched?

فَذَكِّرۡ إِنَّمَاۤ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرࣱ

Then remind them! Thou art only a reminder;

لَّسۡتَ عَلَیۡهِم بِمُصَیۡطِرٍ

thou art not charged to oversee them.

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ

But he who turns his back, and disbelieves,

فَیُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرَ

God shall chastise him with the greatest chastisement.

إِنَّ إِلَیۡنَاۤ إِیَابَهُمۡ

Truly, to Us is their return;

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَیۡنَا حِسَابَهُم

then upon Us shall rest their reckoning.
