Chapter 102, 8 verses
Abundance diverts you,
Alhakumu alttakathuru
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Rivalry in worldly increase distracteth you
أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ
Until you come to the graves.
Hatta zurtumu almaqabira
Until ye come to the graves.
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ
Nay! you shall soon know,
Kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Nay, but ye will come to know!
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
Thumma kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Nay, but ye will come to know!
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Nay! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
Kalla law taAAlamoona AAilma alyaqeeni
Nay, would that ye knew (now) with a sure knowledge!
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
You should most certainly have seen the hell;
Latarawunna aljaheema
For ye will behold hell - fire.
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
Thumma latarawunnaha AAayna alyaqeeni
Aye, ye will behold it with sure vision.
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
Thumma latusalunna yawmaithin AAani alnnaAAeemi
Then, on that day, ye will be asked concerning pleasure.
ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
