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.

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.

15 Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawmaithin lamahjooboona

18 Kalla inna kitaba alabrari lafee AAilliyyeena

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

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

19 Wama adraka ma AAilliyyoona

20 A Register inscribed,

20 It is a written book,

20 Kitabun marqoomun

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).

25 Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoomin

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.

26 Khitamuhu miskun wafee thalika falyatanafasi almutanafisoona

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

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

27 Wamizajuhu min tasneemin

28 A spring whereof drink those nearest to Allah.

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

28 AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboona

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.

29 Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoo mina allatheena amanoo yadhakoona

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.

30 Waitha marroo bihim yataghamazoona

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.

31 Waitha inqalaboo ila ahlihimu inqalaboo fakiheena

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;

32 Waitha raawhum qaloo inna haolai ladalloona

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.

33 Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheena

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;

34 Faalyawma allatheena amanoo mina alkuffari yadhakoona

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

35 On thrones, they will look.

35 AAala alaraiki yanthuroona

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

36 Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did.

36 Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanoo yafAAaloona
