[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.
