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

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
Alhakumu alttakathuru
Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
Until ye come to the graves.
Hatta zurtumu almaqabira
Nay! You shall come to know!
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Again nay! You shall come to know!
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Thumma kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
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!
Kalla law taAAlamoona AAilma alyaqeeni
Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
For ye will behold hell - fire.
Latarawunna aljaheema
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
Aye, ye will behold it with sure vision.
Thumma latarawunnaha AAayna alyaqeeni
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.
Thumma latusalunna yawmaithin AAani alnnaAAeemi
