আল মুতাফফীন (প্রতারক ব্যক্তিরা)

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

1 Woe to those that deal in fraud, -

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

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

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

3 But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.

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

4 Do they not think that they will be called to account? -

5 Unto an Awful Day,

5 On a Mighty Day,

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

6 A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

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

7 Nay! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.

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

8 And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?

9 A written record.

9 (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed.

10 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

10 Woe, that Day, to those that deny -

11 Those who deny the Day of Judgment

11 Those that deny the Day of Judgment.

12 Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

12 And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!

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

13 When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"

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

14 By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!

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

15 Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.

16 Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

16 Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.

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

17 Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!

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

18 Nay, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.

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

19 And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is?

20 A written record,

20 (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,

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

21 To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah).

22 Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

22 Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:

23 On couches, gazing,

23 On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):

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

24 Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.

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

25 Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:

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

26 The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:

27 And mixed with water of Tasnim,

27 With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:

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

28 A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.

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

29 Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed,

30 And wink one to another when they passed them;

30 And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);

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

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

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

32 And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"

33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

33 But they had not been sent as keepers over them!

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

34 But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:

35 On high couches, gazing.

35 On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).

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

36 Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did?
