আল মুতাফ্ফিফীন (ঠকবাজ ব্যক্তিরা)

1 Woe to those who give less [than due],

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto the defrauders:

1 Waylun lilmutaffifeena

2 Who, when they take a measure from people, take in full.

2 Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full,

2 Allatheena itha iktaloo AAala alnnasi yastawfoona

3 But if they give by measure or by weight to them, they cause loss.

3 But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.

3 Waitha kaloohum aw wazanoohum yukhsiroona

4 Do they not think that they will be resurrected

5 For a tremendous Day -

5 Unto an Awful Day,

5 Liyawmin AAatheemin

6 The Day when mankind will stand before the Lord of the worlds?

6 The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds ?

6 Yawma yaqoomu alnnasu lirabbi alAAalameena

7 No! Indeed, the record of the wicked is in sijjeen.

7 Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin -

7 Kalla inna kitaba alfujjari lafee sijjeenin

8 And what can make you know what is sijjeen?

8 Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! -

8 Wama adraka ma sijjeenun

9 It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed.

9 A written record.

9 Kitabun marqoomun

10 Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

10 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

10 Waylun yawmaithin lilmukaththibeena

11 Who deny the Day of Recompense.

11 Those who deny the Day of Judgment

11 Allatheena yukaththiboona biyawmi alddeeni

12 And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

12 Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

12 Wama yukaththibu bihi illa kullu muAAtadin atheemin

13 When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."

13 Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.

13 Itha tutla AAalayhi ayatuna qala asateeru alawwaleena

14 No! Rather, the stain has covered their hearts of that which they were earning.

14 Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.

14 Kalla bal rana AAala quloobihim ma kanoo yaksiboona

15 No! Indeed, from their Lord, that Day, they will be partitioned.

15 Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.

15 Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawmaithin lamahjooboona

16 Then indeed, they will [enter and] burn in Hellfire.

16 Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

16 Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheemi

17 Then it will be said [to them], "This is what you used to deny."

17 And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny.

17 Thumma yuqalu hatha allathee kuntum bihi tukaththiboona

18 No! Indeed, the record of the righteous is in 'illiyyun.

18 Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyin -

18 Kalla inna kitaba alabrari lafee AAilliyyeena

19 And what can make you know what is 'illiyyun?

19 Ah, what will convey unto thee what 'Illiyin is! -

19 Wama adraka ma AAilliyyoona

20 It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed

20 A written record,

20 Kitabun marqoomun

21 Which is witnessed by those brought near [to Allah].

21 Attested by those who are brought near (unto their Lord).

21 Yashhaduhu almuqarraboona

22 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

22 Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

22 Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin

23 On adorned couches, observing.

23 On couches, gazing,

23 AAala alaraiki yanthuroona

24 You will recognize in their faces the radiance of pleasure.

24 Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight.

24 TaAArifu fee wujoohihim nadrata alnnaAAeemi

25 They will be given to drink [pure] wine [which was] sealed.

25 They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed,

25 Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoomin

26 The last of it is musk. So for this let the competitors compete.

26 Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss -

26 Khitamuhu miskun wafee thalika falyatanafasi almutanafisoona

27 And its mixture is of Tasneem,

27 And mixed with water of Tasnim,

27 Wamizajuhu min tasneemin

28 A spring from which those near [to Allah] drink.

28 A spring whence those brought near (to Allah) drink.

28 AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboona

29 Indeed, those who committed crimes used to laugh at those who believed.

29 Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,

29 Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoo mina allatheena amanoo yadhakoona

30 And when they passed by them, they would exchange derisive glances.

30 And wink one to another when they passed them;

30 Waitha marroo bihim yataghamazoona

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

31 And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;

31 Waitha inqalaboo ila ahlihimu inqalaboo fakiheena

32 And when they saw them, they would say, "Indeed, those are truly lost."

32 And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.

32 Waitha raawhum qaloo inna haolai ladalloona

33 But they had not been sent as guardians over them.

33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

33 Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheena

34 So Today those who believed are laughing at the disbelievers,

34 This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers,

34 Faalyawma allatheena amanoo mina alkuffari yadhakoona

35 On adorned couches, observing.

35 On high couches, gazing.

35 AAala alaraiki yanthuroona

36 Have the disbelievers [not] been rewarded [this Day] for what they used to do?

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

36 Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanoo yafAAaloona
