Al-Ghashiyah
هَلۡ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلۡغَٰشِيَةِ
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming?
وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ
On that day (many) faces will be downcast,
عَامِلَةٞ نَّاصِبَةٞ
Toiling, weary,
تَصۡلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةٗ
Scorched by burning fire,
تُسۡقَىٰ مِنۡ عَيۡنٍ ءَانِيَةٖ
Drinking from a boiling spring,
لَّيۡسَ لَهُمۡ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٖ
No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit
لَّا يُسۡمِنُ وَلَا يُغۡنِي مِن جُوعٖ
Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger.
وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ نَّاعِمَةٞ
In that day other faces will be calm,
لِّسَعۡيِهَا رَاضِيَةٞ
Glad for their effort past,
فِي جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٖ
In a high Garden
لَّا تَسۡمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةٗ
Where they hear no idle speech,
