আল মুতাফফীন

1 Woe to those that deal in fraud, -

1 Waylun lilmutaffifeena

2 Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,

2 Allatheena itha iktaloo AAala alnnasi yastawfoona

3 But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.

3 Waitha kaloohum aw wazanoohum yukhsiroona

4 Do they not think that they will be called to account? -

4 Ala yathunnu olaika annahum mabAAoothoona

5 On a Mighty Day,

5 Liyawmin AAatheemin

6 A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

6 Yawma yaqoomu alnnasu lirabbi alAAalameena

7 Nay! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.

7 Kalla inna kitaba alfujjari lafee sijjeenin

8 And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?

8 Wama adraka ma sijjeenun

9 (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed.

9 Kitabun marqoomun

10 Woe, that Day, to those that deny -

10 Waylun yawmaithin lilmukaththibeena

11 Those that deny the Day of Judgment.

11 Allatheena yukaththiboona biyawmi alddeeni

12 And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!

12 Wama yukaththibu bihi illa kullu muAAtadin atheemin

13 When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"

13 Itha tutla AAalayhi ayatuna qala asateeru alawwaleena

14 By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!

14 Kalla bal rana AAala quloobihim ma kanoo yaksiboona

15 Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.

15 Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawmaithin lamahjooboona

16 Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.

16 Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheemi

17 Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!

17 Thumma yuqalu hatha allathee kuntum bihi tukaththiboona

18 Nay, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.

18 Kalla inna kitaba alabrari lafee AAilliyyeena

19 And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is?

19 Wama adraka ma AAilliyyoona

20 (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,

20 Kitabun marqoomun

21 To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah).

21 Yashhaduhu almuqarraboona

22 Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:

22 Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin

23 On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):

23 AAala alaraiki yanthuroona

24 Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.

24 TaAArifu fee wujoohihim nadrata alnnaAAeemi

25 Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:

25 Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoomin

26 The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:

26 Khitamuhu miskun wafee thalika falyatanafasi almutanafisoona

27 With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:

27 Wamizajuhu min tasneemin

28 A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.

28 AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboona

29 Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed,

29 Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoo mina allatheena amanoo yadhakoona

30 And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);

30 Waitha marroo bihim yataghamazoona

31 And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting;

31 Waitha inqalaboo ila ahlihimu inqalaboo fakiheena

32 And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"

32 Waitha raawhum qaloo inna haolai ladalloona

33 But they had not been sent as keepers over them!

33 Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheena

34 But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:

34 Faalyawma allatheena amanoo mina alkuffari yadhakoona

35 On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).

35 AAala alaraiki yanthuroona

36 Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did?

36 Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanoo yafAAaloona
