The Quran

Has the news of the Overwhelming Event reached you ˹O Prophet˺

On that Day ˹some˺ faces will be downcast

˹totally˺ overburdened, exhausted

burning in a scorching Fire

left to drink from a scalding spring

They will have no food except a foul, thorny shrub

neither nourishing nor satisfying hunger

On that Day ˹other˺ faces will be glowing with bliss

˹fully˺ pleased with their striving

in an elevated Garden

where no idle talk will be heard

In it will be a running spring

along with thrones raised high

and cups set at hand

and ˹fine˺ cushions lined up

and ˹splendid˺ carpets spread out

Do they not ever reflect on camels—how they were ˹masterfully˺ created

and the sky—how it was raised ˹high˺

and the mountains—how they were firmly set up

and the earth—how it was levelled out

So, ˹continue to˺ remind ˹all, O Prophet˺, for your duty is only to remind

You are not ˹there˺ to compel them ˹to believe˺

But whoever turns away, persisting in disbelief

then Allah will inflict upon them the major punishment

Surely to Us is their return

then surely with Us is their reckoning
