1 Woe to those who give short measure, وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
2 who demand of other people full measure for themselves, الَّذِينَ إِذَا اكْتَالُواْ عَلَى النَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
3 but when they give by measurement or weight to others, they give them less. وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
4 Do such people not realize that they will be raised up, أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُولَئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
5 on a fateful Day. لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
6 The Day when mankind will stand before the Lord of the Universe? يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
7 Indeed! The record of the wicked is in the Sijjin -- كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٍ
8 and what could make you understand what the Sijjin is? -- وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
9 it is a written record. كِتَابٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
10 Woe, on that Day, to those who reject, وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
11 those who deny the Day of Judgement. الَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
12 No one denies it except for the evil aggressor. وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
13 When Our revelations are conveyed to him, he says, "Fables of the ancients!" إِذَا تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
14 No! Their own deeds have cast a veil over their hearts. كَلَّا بَلْ رَانَ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
15 Indeed! On that Day a barrier will be set between them and their Lord, كَلَّا إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
16 then they shall enter the Fire of Hell, ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا الْجَحِيمِ
17 and they will be told, "This is what you were wont to belie." ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَذَا الَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ
18 But, the record of the righteous is [preserved] in the 'Illiyyin -- كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ
19 and what will make you understand what the 'Illiyyin is? -- وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
20 a written record, كِتَابٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
21 which those angels closest to God will bear witness to. يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
22 The virtuous will surely be in bliss, إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
23 seated on couches and gazing around in wonder. عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
24 You will find in their faces the brightness of bliss. تَعْرِفُ فِي وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ النَّعِيمِ
25 They will be given a drink of pure wine, sealed, يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ
26 its seal will be of musk -- for this let the aspirants aspire -- خِتَامُهُ مِسْكٌ وَفِي ذَلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ الْمُتَنَافِسُونَ
27 a wine tempered with the waters of Tasnim, وَمِزَاجُهُ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ
28 a spring at which those drawn close to God will drink. عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
29 The wicked used to laugh at the believers -- إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا كَانُواْ مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يَضْحَكُونَ
30 when they passed by them, they would wink at one another; وَإِذَا مَرُّواْ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
31 and when they returned to their own people, they would speak of them jestingly; وَإِذَا انقَلَبُواْ إِلَى أَهْلِهِمُ انقَلَبُواْ فَكِهِينَ
32 and when they saw them, they said [scornfully], "These men have surely gone astray," وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّ هَؤُلَاء لَضَالُّونَ
33 though they were not sent to be their keepers -- وَمَا أُرْسِلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ حَافِظِينَ
34 so today those who believe shall [be able to] laugh at those who denied the truth فَالْيَوْمَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
35 as they sit on couches, gazing around. عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
36 Have those who deny the truth [not] been paid back for their deeds? هَلْ ثُوِّبَ الْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ
