Chapter 102, 8 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The mutual rivalry (for piling up of worldly things) diverts you,
Abundance diverts you,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ألهاكم التكاثر
Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
Until you come to the graves.
حتى زرتم المقابر
Nay! You shall come to know!
Nay! you shall soon know,
كلا سوف تعلمون
Again nay! You shall come to know!
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
ثم كلا سوف تعلمون
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! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
كلا لو تعلمون علم اليقين
Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
You should most certainly have seen the hell;
لترون الجحيم
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
ثم لترونها عين اليقين
Then on that Day you shall be asked about the delights (you indulged in, in this world)!
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
ثم لتسألن يومئذ عن النعيم
