Alhakumu alttakathuru
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Rivalry in worldly increase distracteth you
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,
Alhakumu alttakathuru
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Rivalry in worldly increase distracteth you
Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
Hatta zurtumu almaqabira
Until ye come to the graves.
Nay! You shall come to know!
Kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Again nay! You shall come to know!
Thumma kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
Nay, but ye will come to know!
Nay! If you knew with a sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would not have been occupied yourselves in worldly things).
Kalla law taAAlamoona AAilma alyaqeeni
Nay, would that ye knew (now) with a sure knowledge!
Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
Latarawunna aljaheema
For ye will behold hell - fire.
And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
Thumma latarawunnaha AAayna alyaqeeni
Aye, ye will behold it with sure vision.
Then on that Day you shall be asked about the delights (you indulged in, in this world)!
Thumma latusalunna yawmaithin AAani alnnaAAeemi
Then, on that day, ye will be asked concerning pleasure.
