[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.
