Woe to those who give less [than due],

Waylun lilmutaffifeen

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

Allatheena itha iktalooAAala annasi yastawfoon

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

Wa-itha kaloohum aw wazanoohumyukhsiroon

Do they not think that they will be resurrected

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

Kalla inna kitaba alfujjarilafee sijjeen

And what can make you know what is sijjeen?

Wama adraka ma sijjeen

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

Kitabun marqoom

Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

Waylun yawma-ithin lilmukaththibeen

Who deny the Day of Recompense.

Allatheena yukaththiboonabiyawmi addeen

And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

Wama yukaththibu bihi illakullu muAAtadin atheem

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

Itha tutla AAalayhi ayatunaqala asateeru al-awwaleen

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

Kalla bal rana AAalaquloobihim ma kanoo yaksiboon

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

Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawma-ithinlamahjooboon

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

Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheem

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

Thumma yuqalu hatha allatheekuntum bihi tukaththiboon

No! Indeed, the record of the righteous is in ʿilliyyūn.

Kalla inna kitaba al-abrarilafee AAilliyyeen

And what can make you know what is ʿilliyyūn?

Wama adraka maAAilliyyoon

It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed

Kitabun marqoom

Which is witnessed by those brought near [to Allāh].

Yashhaduhu almuqarraboon

Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

Inna al-abrara lafee naAAeem

On adorned couches, observing.

AAala al-ara-iki yanthuroon

You will recognize in their faces the radiance of pleasure.

TaAArifu fee wujoohihim nadrata annaAAeem

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

Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoom

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

Khitamuhu miskun wafee thalikafalyatanafasi almutanafisoon

And its mixture is of Tasneem,

Wamizajuhu min tasneem

A spring from which those near [to Allāh] drink.

AAaynan yashrabu biha almuqarraboon

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

Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoomina allatheena amanoo yadhakoon

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

Wa-itha marroo bihim yataghamazoon

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

Wa-itha inqalaboo ila ahlihimuinqalaboo fakiheen

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

Wa-itha raawhum qaloo inna haola-iladalloon

But they had not been sent as guardians over them.

Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheen

So Today those who believed are laughing at the disbelievers,

Falyawma allatheena amanoomina alkuffari yadhakoon

On adorned couches, observing.

AAala al-ara-iki yanthuroon

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

Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanooyafAAaloon
