88-1 : Has not there come to you the news of the overwhelming calamity?

88-2 : (Some) faces on that day shall be downcast,

88-3 : Laboring, toiling,

88-4 : Entering into burning fire,

88-5 : Made to drink from a boiling spring.

88-6 : They shall have no food but of thorns,

88-7 : Which will neither fatten nor avail against hunger.

88-8 : (Other) faces on that day shall be happy,

88-9 : Well - pleased because of their striving,

88-10 : In a lofty garden,

88-11 : Wherein you shall not hear vain talk.

88-12 : Therein is a fountain flowing,

88-13 : Therein are thrones raised high,

88-14 : And drinking - cups ready placed,

88-15 : And cushions set in a row,

88-16 : And carpets spread out.

88-17 : Will they not then consider the camels, how they are created?

88-18 : And the heaven, how it is reared aloft,

88-19 : And the mountains, how they are firmly fixed,

88-20 : And the earth, how it is made a vast expanse?

88-21 : Therefore do remind, for you are only a reminder.

88-22 : You are not a watcher over them;

88-23 : But whoever turns back and disbelieves,

88-24 : Allah will chastise him with the greatest chastisement.

88-25 : Surely to Us is their turning back,

88-26 : Then surely upon Us is the taking of their account.
