- 1.
Woe to those that deal in fraud,-
- 2.
Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
- 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 called to account?-
- 5.
On a Mighty Day,
- 6.
A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?
- 7.
Day! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.
- 8.
And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?
- 9.
(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed.
- 10.
Woe, that Day, to those that deny-
- 11.
Those that deny the Day of Judgment.
- 12.
And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!
- 13.
When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"
- 14.
By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!
- 15.
Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.
- 16.
Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.
- 17.
Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!
- 18.
Day, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.
- 19.
And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is?
- 20.
(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,
- 21.
To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah..
- 22.
Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:
- 23.
On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):
- 24.
Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.
- 25.
Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:
- 26.
The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:
- 27.
With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:
- 28.
A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.
- 29.
Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed,
- 30.
And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);
- 31.
And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting;
- 32.
And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"
- 33.
But they had not been sent as keepers over them!
- 34.
But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:
- 35.
On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).
- 36.
Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did?
