| Surah 83. Al-Mutaffifeen | |||
| 1 | Woe unto the defrauders: | ||
| 2 | Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full, | ||
| 3 | But if they measure unto them or weigh for them, they cause them loss. | ||
| 4 | Do such ( men ) not consider that they will be again | ||
| 5 | Unto an awful Day, | ||
| 6 | The day when ( all ) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds? | ||
| 7 | Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin | ||
| 8 | Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! | ||
| 9 | A written record. | ||
| 10 | Woe unto the repudiators on that day! | ||
| 11 | Those who deny the Day of Judgment | ||
| 12 | Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor, | ||
| 13 | Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: ( Mere ) fables of the men of old | ||
| 14 | Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts. | ||
| 15 | Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from ( the mercy of ) their Lord. | ||
| 16 | Then lo! they verily will burn in hell, | ||
| 17 | And it will be said ( unto them ): This is that which ye used to deny. | ||
| 18 | Nay, but the record of the righteous is in Iliyin | ||
| 19 | Ah, what will convey unto thee what Iliyin is! | ||
| 20 | A written record, | ||
| 21 | Attested by those who are brought near ( unto their Lord ). | ||
| 22 | Lo! the righteous verily are in delight, | ||
| 23 | On couches, gazing, | ||
| 24 | Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight | ||
| 25 | They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed, | ||
| 26 | Whose seal is musk. For this let ( all ) those strive who strive for bliss | ||
| 27 | And mixed with water of Tasnim, | ||
| 28 | A spring whence those brought near to Allah drink | ||
| 29 | Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed, | ||
| 30 | And wink one to another when they passed them; | ||
| 31 | And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jetting; | ||
| 32 | And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray. | ||
| 33 | Yet they were not sent as guardians over them. | ||
| 34 | This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers, | ||
| 35 | On high couches, gazing. | ||
| 36 | Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do? | ||
