88: The Overwhelming
|
|
| 88:1
Hath there come unto thee tidings of the Overwhelming ? |
|
| 88:2
On that day (many) faces will be downcast, |
On that day many will be sad and weary. Scorched by the fire, drinking boiling water, with only bitter
thorn-fruit to eat.
The Fire
|
| 88:3
Toiling, weary,
|
| 88:4
Scorched by burning fire,
|
| 88:5
Drinking from a boiling spring, |
|
| 88:6
No food for them save bitter thorn-fruit |
|
| 88:7
Which doth not nourish nor release from hunger. |
|
| 88:8
In that day other faces will be calm, |
|
| 88:9
Glad for their effort past, |
|
| 88:10
In a high Garden |
|
| 88:11
Where they hear no idle speech, |
|
| 88:12
Wherein is a gushing spring, |
|
| 88:13
Wherein are couches raised |
|
| 88:14
And goblets set at hand |
|
| 88:15
And cushions ranged |
|
| 88:16
And silken carpets spread. |
|
| 88:17
Will they not regard the camels, how they are created ? |
|
| 88:18
And the heaven, how it is raised ? |
|
| 88:19
And the hills, how they are set up ? |
|
| 88:20
And the earth, how it is spread ? |
 (88:20) "And the earth, how it is spread ?"
The earth is flat according to the Quran.
|
| 88:21
Remind them, for thou art but a remembrancer,
|
| 88:22
Thou art not at all a warder over them. |
|
| 88:23
But whoso is averse and disbelieveth, |
Allah will punish disbelievers with the direst punishment.
|
| 88:24
Allah will punish him with direst punishment.
|
| 88:25
Lo! unto Us is their return |
|
| 88:26
And Ours their reckoning. | |
