আল মুতাফফীন (প্রতারক ব্যক্তিরা)

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

1 Woe to those that deal in fraud, -

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

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

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

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

4 Do they not think that they will be resurrected

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

5 For a tremendous Day -

5 On a Mighty Day,

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

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

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

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

8 And what can make you know what is sijjeen?

8 And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?

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

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

10 Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

10 Woe, that Day, to those that deny -

11 Who deny the Day of Recompense.

11 Those that deny the Day of Judgment.

12 And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

16 Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

22 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

22 Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:

23 On adorned couches, observing.

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

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

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

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

25 Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:

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

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

27 And its mixture is of Tasneem,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

35 On adorned couches, observing.

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

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

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