Sorah Al-Ghashiya ( The Overwhelming ) - Verses Number 26
هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغَاشِيَةِ ( 1 ) 
Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]?
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَاشِعَةٌ ( 2 )
[Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ ( 3 )
Working [hard] and exhausted.
تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةً ( 4 )
They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.
تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ آنِيَةٍ ( 5 )
They will be given drink from a boiling spring.
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍ ( 6 )
For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant
لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِي مِن جُوعٍ ( 7 )
Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ نَّاعِمَةٌ ( 8 )
[Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.
لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌ ( 9 )
With their effort [they are] satisfied
فِي جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍ ( 10 )
In an elevated garden,
لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَاغِيَةً ( 11 )
Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.
فِيهَا عَيْنٌ جَارِيَةٌ ( 12 )
Within it is a flowing spring.
فِيهَا سُرُرٌ مَّرْفُوعَةٌ ( 13 )
Within it are couches raised high
وَأَكْوَابٌ مَّوْضُوعَةٌ ( 14 )
And cups put in place
وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌ ( 15 )
And cushions lined up
وَزَرَابِيُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ( 16 )
And carpets spread around.
أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى الْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ ( 17 )
Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?
وَإِلَى السَّمَاءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ ( 18 )
And at the sky - how it is raised?
وَإِلَى الْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ ( 19 )
And at the mountains - how they are erected?
وَإِلَى الْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ ( 20 )
And at the earth - how it is spread out?
فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَا أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌ ( 21 )
So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.
لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ ( 22 )
You are not over them a controller.
إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ( 23 )
However, he who turns away and disbelieves -
فَيُعَذِّبُهُ اللَّهُ الْعَذَابَ الْأَكْبَرَ ( 24 )
Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.
إِنَّ إِلَيْنَا إِيَابَهُمْ ( 25 )
Indeed, to Us is their return.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم ( 26 )
Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

- Worldly Difficulties - Reality, Causes and BenefitsThis booklet reminds the reader that worldly difficulties are a trial for the believers, while not disregarding the fact that more often afflictions result from one’s sins and disobedience to Allah. It also teaches how appropriate behavior and correct attitude can change an adversity into a worthwhile opportunity to achieve Allah’s Pleasure through Sabr, Shukr, Ihtisaab and Istirja, whereas impatience, panic and complaining can worsen one’s state of affairs. It also explains the futility of invoking the Prophets and the dead to remove hardships, and encourages calling upon Allah Alone to ease one’s affairs.
