Chapter 83, 36 verses
Woe to the defrauders,
Waylun lilmutaffifeena
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ
Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men take it fully,
Allatheena itha iktaloo AAala alnnasi yastawfoona
الَّذِينَ إِذَا اكْتَالُوا عَلَى النَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ
But when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they are deficient.
Waitha kaloohum aw wazanoohum yukhsiroona
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ
Do not these think that they shall be raised again
Ala yathunnu olaika annahum mabAAoothoona
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُولَٰئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
For a mighty day,
Liyawmin AAatheemin
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
The day on which men shall stand before the Lord of the worlds?
Yawma yaqoomu alnnasu lirabbi alAAalameena
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
Nay! most surely the record of the wicked is in the Sijjin.
Kalla inna kitaba alfujjari lafee sijjeenin
كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٍ
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍ
And what will make you know what the Sijjin is?
Wama adraka ma sijjeenun
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ
It is a written book.
Kitabun marqoomun
كِتَابٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Woe on that day to the rejecters,
Waylun yawmaithin lilmukaththibeena
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ
Who give the lie to the day of judgment.
Allatheena yukaththiboona biyawmi alddeeni
الَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ
ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
And none gives the lie to it but every exceeder of limits, sinful one
Wama yukaththibu bihi illa kullu muAAtadin atheemin
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ
When Our communications are recited to him, he says: Stories of those of yore.
Itha tutla AAalayhi ayatuna qala asateeru alawwaleena
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ
Nay! rather, what they used to do has become like rust upon their hearts.
Kalla bal rana AAala quloobihim ma kanoo yaksiboona
كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
كَلَّا بَلْ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ
Nay! most surely they shall on that day be debarred from their Lord.
Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawmaithin lamahjooboona
كَلَّا إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
Then most surely they shall enter the burning fire.
Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheemi
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُو الْجَحِيمِ
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ
Then shall it be said: This is what you gave the lie to.
Thumma yuqalu hatha allathee kuntum bihi tukaththiboona
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا الَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِ تُكَذِّبُونَ
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
Nay! Most surely the record of the righteous shall be in the Iliyin.
Kalla inna kitaba alabrari lafee AAilliyyeena
كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ
And what will make you know what the highest Iliyin is?
Wama adraka ma AAilliyyoona
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
It is a written book,
Kitabun marqoomun
كِتَابٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
كِتَٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ
Those who are drawn near (to Allah) shall witness it.
Yashhaduhu almuqarraboona
يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
يَشْهَدُهُ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Most surely the righteous shall be in bliss,
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ
On thrones, they shall gaze;
AAala alaraiki yanthuroona
عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
You will recognize in their faces the brightness of bliss.
TaAArifu fee wujoohihim nadrata alnnaAAeemi
تَعْرِفُ فِي وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ النَّعِيمِ
تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
They are made to quaff of a pure drink that is sealed (to others).
Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoomin
يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ
يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ
The sealing of it is (with) musk; and for that let the aspirers aspire.
Khitamuhu miskun wafee thalika falyatanafasi almutanafisoona
خِتَامُهُ مِسْكٌ ۚ وَفِي ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ الْمُتَنَافِسُونَ
خِتَٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ ٱلْمُتَنَٰفِسُونَ
And the admixture of it is a water of Tasnim,
Wamizajuhu min tasneemin
وَمِزَاجُهُ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ
وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ
A fountain from which drink they who are drawn near (to Allah).
AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboona
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ
Surely they who are guilty used to laugh at those who believe.
Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoo mina allatheena amanoo yadhakoona
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا كَانُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يَضْحَكُونَ
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ
And when they passed by them, they winked at one another.
Waitha marroo bihim yataghamazoona
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ
And when they returned to their own followers they returned exulting.
Waitha inqalaboo ila ahlihimu inqalaboo fakiheena
وَإِذَا انقَلَبُوا إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهِمُ انقَلَبُوا فَكِهِينَ
وَإِذَا ٱنقَلَبُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمُ ٱنقَلَبُوا۟ فَكِهِينَ
And when they saw them, they said: Most surely these are in error;
Waitha raawhum qaloo inna haolai ladalloona
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَضَالُّونَ
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ
And they were not sent to be keepers over them.
Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheena
وَمَا أُرْسِلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ حَافِظِينَ
وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَٰفِظِينَ
So today those who believe shall laugh at the unbelievers;
Faalyawma allatheena amanoo mina alkuffari yadhakoona
فَالْيَوْمَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ
On thrones, they will look.
AAala alaraiki yanthuroona
عَلَى الْأَرَائِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ
Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did.
Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanoo yafAAaloona
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ الْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ
