بِسْمِ ٱللَّـهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ |  | In the name of God, the Almighty,1 the Merciful.
وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ |  | 832 1 Woe to the unfair traders:1 —
ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ |  | 2 Those who, when they take measure from men, take in full,
وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ |  | 3 But when they give them by measure or give them by weight, cause loss.
أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ |  | 4 Do those not think that they will be raised
لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ |  | 5 To a tremendous day: —
يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ |  | 6 A day men will stand before the Lord of All Creation?
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَـٰبَ ٱلْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍ |  | 7 No, indeed!1 The writ2 of the licentious is in Sijjīn.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ |  | 8 And what will convey to thee what Sijjīn1 is?
كِتَـٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ |  | 9 A writ1 inscribed!
وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ |  | 10 Woe, that day, to the deniers,1
ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ |  | 11 Those who deny the Day of Judgment!1
وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ |  | 12 And none denies it save every sinful transgressor.
إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَـٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَـٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ |  | 13 When Our proofs1 are recited to him, he says: “Legends of the former peoples.”
كَلَّا بَلْ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ |  | 14 No, indeed!1 The truth is,2 what they earned conquered3 their hearts.
كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ |  | 15 No, indeed!1 From their Lord, that day, will they be veiled;
ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ |  | 16 Then will they burn in Hell;
ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ |  | 17 Then will it be said: “This is that which you denied.”
كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَـٰبَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ |  | 18 No, indeed!1 The writ2 of the virtuous is in ʿIlliyyūn.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ |  | 19 And what will convey to thee what ʿIlliyyūn1 is?
كِتَـٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ |  | 20 A writ1 inscribed
يَشْهَدُهُ ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ |  | 21 To which bear witness those brought near!1
إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ |  | 22 The virtuous will be in bliss,
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ |  | 23 Upon couches looking on.
تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ ٱلنَّعِيمِ |  | 24 Thou wilt recognise in their faces the radiance of bliss.
يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ |  | 25 They will be given to drink of a wine sealed,
خِتَـٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ ٱلْمُتَنَـٰفِسُونَ |  | 26 Whose seal is musk — and for that let aspire those who aspire1 —
وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ |  | 27 And its mixture of Tasnīm:1
عَيْنًا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا ٱلْمُقَرَّبُونَ |  | 28 A spring whereat drink those brought near.1
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ |  | 29 Those who were lawbreakers laughed at those who heeded warning,1
وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ |  | 30 And when they passed by them, they winked at one another.
وَإِذَا ٱنقَلَبُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمُ ٱنقَلَبُوا۟ فَكِهِينَ |  | 31 And when they returned to their people, they returned delighting.
وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ |  | 32 And when they saw them, they said: “These have gone astray.”
وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَـٰفِظِينَ |  | 33 But they were not sent as custodians over them.
فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ |  | 34 And this day those who heed warning1 laugh at the atheists,2
عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ |  | 35 Upon couches looking on.
هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ |  | 36 Are not the atheists1 requited for what they did?
