(88:1) Has the news of the overwhelming event reached you? (88:2) Some faces that Day shall be downcast with fear, (88:3) be toiling and worn-out; (88:4) they shall burn in a Scorching Fire; (88:5) their drink shall be from a boiling spring. (88:6) They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns (88:7) that will neither nourish nor satisfy their hunger. (88:8) On that very Day some faces shall be radiant with joy, (88:9) well-pleased with their striving. (88:10) They will be in a lofty Garden (88:11) wherein they shall hear no vain talk. (88:12) In it there shall be a flowing spring, (88:13) and couches raised high, (88:14) and goblets laid out, (88:15) and cushions arrayed in rows, (88:16) and rich carpets levelled out. (88:17) Do (these unbelievers) not observe the camels: how they were created? (88:18) And the sky: how it was raised high? (88:19) And the mountains: how they were fixed? (88:20) And the earth: how it was spread out? (88:21) So render good counsel, for you are simply required to counsel, (88:22) and are not invested with the authority to compel them. (88:23) But whoever will turn away (from the Truth), (88:24) Allah will chastise him with the most terrible chastisement. (88:25) Surely to Us is their return; (88:26) and then it is for Us to call them to account.
