Alhakumu alttakathuru
The mutual rivalry for piling up (the good things of this world) diverts you (from the more serious things),
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألهاكم التكاثر
أَلْهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ
Hatta zurtumu almaqabira
Until ye visit the graves.
حتى زرتم المقابر
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ
Kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
But nay, ye soon shall know (the reality).
كلا سوف تعلمون
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Thumma kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Again, ye soon shall know!
ثم كلا سوف تعلمون
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
Kalla law taAAlamoona AAilma alyaqeeni
Nay, were ye to know with certainty of mind, (ye would beware!)
كلا لو تعلمون علم اليقين
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
Latarawunna aljaheema
Ye shall certainly see Hell - Fire!
لترون الجحيم
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ
Thumma latarawunnaha AAayna alyaqeeni
Again, ye shall see it with certainty of sight!
ثم لترونها عين اليقين
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ
Thumma latusalunna yawmaithin AAani alnnaAAeemi
Then, shall ye be questioned that Day about the joy (ye indulged in!).
ثم لتسألن يومئذ عن النعيم
ثُمَّ لَتُسْـَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ
