In the name
of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
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?
