Hilali & Muhsin Khan
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The mutual rivalry (for piling up of worldly things) diverts you,
Shakir
Abundance diverts you,
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
Shakir
Until you come to the graves.
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Nay! You shall come to know!
Shakir
Nay! you shall soon know,
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Again nay! You shall come to know!
Shakir
Nay! Nay! you shall soon know.
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Nay! If you knew with a sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would not have been occupied yourselves in worldly things).
Shakir
Nay! if you had known with a certain knowledge,
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
Shakir
You should most certainly have seen the hell;
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
Shakir
Then you shall most certainly see it with the eye of certainty;
Hilali & Muhsin Khan
Then on that Day you shall be asked about the delights (you indulged in, in this world)!
Shakir
Then on that day you shall most certainly be questioned about the boons.
