About Surah Al-Ghashiyah

Al-Ghashiyah, “The Overwhelming”, describes the Day of Judgement with two kinds of faces: humbled, weary faces in the scorching fire, and joyful faces content with their striving, in an elevated garden with flowing springs and raised couches.

It invites people to reflect on the camel, the sky, the mountains and the earth, and reminds the Prophet ﷺ that his task is only to remind. It was often recited in the Friday and Eid prayers.
