بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Woe to the diminishers,
الَّذِينَ إِذَا اكْتَالُوا عَلَى النَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
who, when people measure for them, take full measure,
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَوْ وَزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
but when they measure or weigh for others, they reduce!
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُولَٰئِكَ أَنَّهُمْ مَبْعُوثُونَ
Do they not think that they will be resurrected
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
for a great Day,
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
the Day when people will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٍ
No indeed, the Book of the immoral is in Sijjeen.
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
What could let you know what the Sijjeen is!
كِتَابٌ مَرْقُومٌ
(It is) a marked Book.
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Woe on that Day to those who belied it,
الَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
who belied the Day of Recompense!
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
None belies it except every guilty sinner.
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
When Our verses are recited to him, he says: 'Fictitious tales of the ancients'
كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ مَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
No indeed! Their own deeds have cast a veil over their hearts.
كَلَّا إِنَّهُمْ عَنْ رَبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَمَحْجُوبُونَ
No indeed, on that Day they shall be veiled from their Lord.
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُو الْجَحِيمِ
Then they shall roast in Hell,
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا الَّذِي كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ
and it will be said to them: 'This is that which you belied'
كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ
But, the Book of the righteous is in the 'Illiyoon.
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
What could let you know what the 'Illiyoon is!
(It is) a marked Book,
يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
witnessed by those who are near (to Allah).
إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
The righteous shall indeed be blissful,
عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ يَنْظُرُونَ
(reclining) upon couches they will gaze,
تَعْرِفُ فِي وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ النَّعِيمِ
and in their faces you shall know the radiance of bliss.
يُسْقَوْنَ مِنْ رَحِيقٍ مَخْتُومٍ
They shall be given to drink of a wine that is sealed,
خِتَامُهُ مِسْكٌ ۚ وَفِي ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ الْمُتَنَافِسُونَ
its seal is musk, for this let the competitors compete;
وَمِزَاجُهُ مِنْ تَسْنِيمٍ
and its mixture is Tasneem,
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
a fountain at which those brought near (to their Lord) drink.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا كَانُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يَضْحَكُونَ
The sinners laughed at the believers
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
and winked at one another as they passed them by.
وَإِذَا انْقَلَبُوا إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِمُ انْقَلَبُوا فَكِهِينَ
When they returned to their people they returned jesting;
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَضَالُّونَ
and when they saw them said: 'These are they who are astray'
وَمَا أُرْسِلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ حَافِظِينَ
Yet they were not sent to be their guardians.
فَالْيَوْمَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
But on this Day the believers will laugh at the unbelievers
as they (recline) upon their couches and gaze (around them).
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ الْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ
Have the unbelievers been rewarded for what they did?
