আল মুতাফফীন (প্রতারক ব্যক্তিরা)

1 In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to Al-Mutaffifun (those who give less in measure and weight).

1 Woe to the defrauders,

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

2 Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men take it fully,

3 And when they have to give by measure or weight to (other) men, give less than due.

3 But when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they are deficient.

4 Do they not think that they will be resurrected (for reckoning),

4 Do not these think that they shall be raised again

5 On a Great Day?

5 For a mighty day,

6 The Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)?

6 The day on which men shall stand before the Lord of the worlds?

7 Nay! Truly, the Record (writing of the deeds) of the Fujjar (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, evil-doers and the wicked) is (preserved) in Sijjin.

7 Nay! most surely the record of the wicked is in the Sijjin.

8 And what will make you know what Sijjin is?

8 And what will make you know what the Sijjin is?

9 A Register inscribed.

9 It is a written book.

10 Woe, that Day, to those who deny.

10 Woe on that day to the rejecters,

11 Those who deny the Day of Recompense.

11 Who give the lie to the day of judgment.

12 And none can deny it except every transgressor beyond bounds, (in disbelief, oppression and disobedience to Allah) the sinner!

12 And none gives the lie to it but every exceeder of limits, sinful one

13 When Our Verses (of the Qur'an) are recited to him he says: "Tales of the ancients!"

13 When Our communications are recited to him, he says: Stories of those of yore.

14 Nay! But on their hearts is the Ran (covering of sins and evil deeds) which they used to earn.

14 Nay! rather, what they used to do has become like rust upon their hearts.

15 Nay! Surely they (evil-doers) will be veiled from seeing their Lord that Day.

15 Nay! most surely they shall on that day be debarred from their Lord.

16 Then, verily, they will indeed enter (and taste) the burning flame of Hell.

16 Then most surely they shall enter the burning fire.

17 Then, it will be said to them: "This is what you used to deny!"

17 Then shall it be said: This is what you gave the lie to.

18 Nay! Verily, the Record (writing of the deeds) of Al-Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) is (preserved) in 'Illiyyun

18 Nay! Most surely the record of the righteous shall be in the Iliyin.

19 And what will make you know what 'Illiyyun is?

19 And what will make you know what the highest Iliyin is?

20 A Register inscribed,

20 It is a written book,

21 To which bear witness those nearest (to Allah, i.e. the angels).

21 Those who are drawn near (to Allah) shall witness it.

22 Verily, Al-Abrar (the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism) will be in Delight (Paradise).

22 Most surely the righteous shall be in bliss,

23 On thrones, looking (at all things).

23 On thrones, they shall gaze;

24 You will recognise in their faces the brightness of delight.

24 You will recognize in their faces the brightness of bliss.

25 They will be given to drink of pure sealed wine.

25 They are made to quaff of a pure drink that is sealed (to others).

26 The last thereof (that wine) will be the smell of Musk, and for this let (all) those strive who want to strive (i.e. hasten earnestly to the obedience of Allah).

26 The sealing of it is (with) musk; and for that let the aspirers aspire.

27 It (that wine) will be mixed with Tasnim:

27 And the admixture of it is a water of Tasnim,

28 A spring whereof drink those nearest to Allah.

28 A fountain from which drink they who are drawn near (to Allah).

29 Verily, (during the worldly life) those who committed crimes used to laugh at those who believed.

29 Surely they who are guilty used to laugh at those who believe.

30 And, whenever they passed by them, used to wink one to another (in mockery).

30 And when they passed by them, they winked at one another.

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

31 And when they returned to their own followers they returned exulting.

32 And when they saw them, they said: "Verily these have indeed gone astray!"

32 And when they saw them, they said: Most surely these are in error;

33 But they (disbelievers, sinners) had not been sent as watchers over them (the believers).

33 And they were not sent to be keepers over them.

34 But this Day (the Day of Resurrection) those who believe will laugh at the disbelievers

34 So today those who believe shall laugh at the unbelievers;

35 On (high) thrones, looking (at all things).

35 On thrones, they will look.

36 Are not the disbelievers paid (fully) for what they used to do?

36 Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did.
