88:1 | | Has the story reached thee of the overwhelming (Event) | 88:2 | | Some faces, that Day, will be humiliated | 88:3 | | Labouring (hard), weary, | 88:4 | | The while they enter the Blazing Fire, | 88:5 | | The while they are given, to drink, of a boiling hot spring | 88:6 | | No food will there be for them but a bitter Dhari | 88:7 | | Which will neither nourish nor satisfy hunger | 88:8 | | (Other) faces that Day will be joyful | 88:9 | | Pleased with their striving, | 88:10 | | In a Garden on high | 88:11 | | Where they shall hear no (word) of vanity | 88:12 | | Therein will be a bubbling spring | 88:13 | | Therein will be Thrones (of dignity), raised on high | 88:14 | | Goblets placed (ready) | 88:15 | | And cushions set in rows | 88:16 | | And rich carpets (all) spread out | 88:17 | | Do they not look at the Camels, how they are made? | 88:18 | | And at the Sky, how it is raised high? | 88:19 | | And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm? | 88:20 | | And at the Earth, how it is spread out | 88:21 | | Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish | 88:22 | | Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs | 88:23 | | But if any turn away and reject Allah, | 88:24 | | Allah will punish him with a mighty Punishment | 88:25 | | For to Us will be their return | 88:26 | | Then it will be for Us to call them to account |
