Chapter 102, 8 verses
Abundance diverts you,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The mutual rivalry (for piling up of worldly things) diverts you,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Rivalry in worldly increase distracteth you
Until you come to the graves.
Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
Until ye come to the graves.
Nay! you shall soon know,
Nay! You shall come to know!
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
Again nay! You shall come to know!
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Nay! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
Nay! If you knew with a sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would not have been occupied yourselves in worldly things).
Nay, would that ye knew (now) with a sure knowledge!
You should most certainly have seen the hell;
Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
For ye will behold hell - fire.
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
Aye, ye will behold it with sure vision.
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
Then on that Day you shall be asked about the delights (you indulged in, in this world)!
Then, on that day, ye will be asked concerning pleasure.
