আল মুতাফফীন (প্রতারক ব্যক্তিরা)

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

1 Woe to the defrauders,

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

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

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

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

4 Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised again

4 Do not these think that they shall be raised again

5 Unto an Awful Day,

5 For a mighty day,

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

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

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

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

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

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

9 A written record.

9 It is a written book.

10 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

10 Woe on that day to the rejecters,

11 Those who deny the Day of Judgment

11 Who give the lie to the day of judgment.

12 Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

16 Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

16 Then most surely they shall enter the burning fire.

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

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

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

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

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

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

20 A written record,

20 It is a written book,

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

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

22 Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

22 Most surely the righteous shall be in bliss,

23 On couches, gazing,

23 On thrones, they shall gaze;

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

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

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

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

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

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

27 And mixed with water of Tasnim,

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

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

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

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

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

30 And wink one to another when they passed them;

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

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

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

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

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

33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

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

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

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

35 On high couches, gazing.

35 On thrones, they will look.

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

36 Surely the disbelievers are rewarded as they did.
