Reciting Surat Al-A`la and Al-Ghashiyah in the Friday Prayer
It has already been mentioned on the authority of An-Nu`man bin Bashir that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite Surat Al-A`la ( 87 ) and Al-Ghashiyah in the `Id and Friday prayers.
Imam Malik recorded that Ad-Dahhak bin Qays asked An-Nu`man bin Bashir, "What else did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recite on Friday along with Surat Al-Jumu`ah" An-Nu`man replied, "Al-Ghashiyah ( 88 )." This narration has been recorded by Abu Dawud, An-Nasa'i, Muslim and Ibn Majah.
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
The Day of Judgement and what will happen to the People of the Fire during it Al-Ghashiyah is one of
This was said by Ibn `Abbas, Qatadah and Ibn Zayd.
It has been called this because it will overwhelm the people and overcome them.
Allah then says,
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَـشِعَةٌ
( Some faces that Day will be Khashi`ah. ) meaning, humiliated.
This was said by Qatadah.
Ibn `Abbas said, "They will be humble but this action will be of no benefit to them." Then Allah says,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ
( Laboring, weary. ) meaning, they did many deeds and became weary in their performance, yet they will be cast into a blazing Fire on the Day of Judgement.
Al-Hafiz Abu Bakr Al-Burqani narrated from Abu `Imran Al-Jawni that he said, " `Umar bin Al-Khattab passed by the monastery of a monk and he said: `O monk!' Then the monk came out, and `Umar looked at him and began to weep.
Then it was said to him: `O Commander of the faithful! Why are you weeping' He replied: `I remembered the statement of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, in His Book,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ - تَصْلَى نَاراً حَامِيَةً
( Laboring, weary.
They will enter into Fire, Hamiyah. ) So that is what has made me cry.
"' Al-Bukhari recorded that Ibn `Abbas said,
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ
( Laboring, weary. ) "The Christians." It is narrated that `Ikrimah and As-Suddi both said, "Laboring in the worldly life with disobedience, and weariness in the Fire from torment and perdition." Ibn `Abbas, Al-Hasan, and Qatadah all said,
تَصْلَى نَاراً حَامِيَةً
( They will enter into Fire, Hamiyah ) meaning, hot with intense heat.
تُسْقَى مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍ
( They will be given to drink from a boiling (Aniyah ) spring.) meaning, its heat has reached its maximum limit and boiling point.
This was said by Ibn `Abbas, Mujahid, Al-Hasan and As-Suddi.
Concerning Allah's statement,
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلاَّ مِن ضَرِيعٍ
( No food will there be for them but from Dari`, ) `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn `Abbas that he said, "A tree from the Hellfire." Ibn `Abbas, Mujahid, `Ikrimah, Abu Al-Jawza' and Qatadah, all said, "It is Ash-Shibriq ( a type of plant )." Qatadah said, "The Quraysh called it Ash-Shabraq in the spring and Ad-Dari` in the summer." `Ikrimah said, "It is a thorny tree which reaches down to the ground." Al-Bukhari related that Mujahid said, "Ad-Dari` is a plant that is called Ash-Shibriq.
The people of the Hijaz call it Ad-Dari` when it dries, and it is poisonous." Ma`mar narrated that Qatadah said,
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلاَّ مِن ضَرِيعٍ
( No food will there be for them but from Dari`, ) "This is Ash-Shibriq.
When it dries it is called Ad-Dari`." Sa`id narrated from Qatadah that he said,
لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلاَّ مِن ضَرِيعٍ
( No food will there be for them but Dari`, ) "This is of the worst, most disgusting and loathsome of foods." Concerning Allah's statement,
لاَّ يُسْمِنُ وَلاَ يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍ
( Which will neither nourish nor avail against hunger. ) This means that the intent in eating it will not be achieved, and nothing harmful will be repelled by it.
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(88:6) They shall have no food except bitter dry thorns *3
For them there will be no food meaning
*3) At some places in the Qur'an it has been stated that the dwellers of Hell will be given zaqqum to eat; at another place it has been said that they will have no other food but glhislin ( washing from wounds ), and here that " their only food will he thorny, dry grass. " There is, in fact, no contradiction between these statements.
This may as welt mean that Hell will have many different compartment in which different categories of the criminals will be lodged according to their crimes, and subjected to different punishments.
This may also mean that if they try to avoid zaqqum they will be given ghislin, and if they try to avoid even that, they will only get thorny grass.
In short, they would get nothing to suit their taste.

( No food for them ) in those abysmal pits ( save bitter thorn fruit ) the shabraq plant which grows in the roads of Mecca, which is eaten by camels when it is soft but when it is hard it becomes like the claws of cats.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
