আল মুতাফফীন (প্রতারক ব্যক্তিরা)

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

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

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,

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.

4 Do they not think that they will be resurrected

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

5 For a tremendous Day -

5 Unto an Awful Day,

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 ?

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

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

8 And what can make you know what is sijjeen?

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

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

9 A written record.

10 Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

10 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

11 Who deny the Day of Recompense.

11 Those who deny the Day of Judgment

12 And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

12 Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

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.

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.

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.

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

16 Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

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.

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

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

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

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

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

20 A written record,

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

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

22 Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

22 Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

23 On adorned couches, observing.

23 On couches, gazing,

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

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

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

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

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 -

27 And its mixture is of Tasneem,

27 And mixed with water of Tasnim,

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

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

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

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

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

30 And wink one to another when they passed them;

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

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

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.

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

33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

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,

35 On adorned couches, observing.

35 On high couches, gazing.

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 ?
