English - Chapter 83 - Al-Mutaffifin

Woe Unto the scrimpers

Those who, when they take by measure from mankind, exact the full

And who, when they measure Unto them or weigh for them, diminish

Imagine such men not that they shall be raised up

On a mighty Day

A Day whereon mankind shall stand before the Lord of the worlds

By no means! Verily the record of the ungodly is in Sijjin

And what will make thee know whatsoever the record in Sijjin is

A record of misdeeds written

Woe on that Day unto the belviers

Those who belie the Day of Requital

And none belieth it save each trespasser, sinner

And when Our revelations are rehearsed Unto him, she saith:'fables of the ancients

By no means!' Aye! encrusted upon their hearts is that which they have been earning

By no means! Verily on that Day from their Lord they will be shut Out

Then verily they will be roasted into the Scorch

Then it will be said: 'this is that which ye were wont to belie

By no means! Verily the record of the virtuous shall be in 'Illiyun

And what will make thee know whatsoever the record in Illiyun is

A record of good deeds written

To which bear witness those brought nigh

Verily the virtuous shall be in Delight

Reclining on couches, looking on

Thou wilt recognize in their faces the brightness of delight

They will be given to drink of pure wine, sealed

The seal thereof will be of musk and to this end let the aspirers aspire

And admixture thereof will be Water of Tasnim

A fountain whereof will drink those brought nigh

Veriiy those who have sinned were wont at those who had believed to laugh

And, when they passed them, to wink at each other

And when they returned to their household they returned jesting

And when they saw them, they said: verily these are the strayed ones

Whereas they were not sent over them as watchers

Wherefore Today, those who believed at the infidels are laughing

Reclining on couches, looking on

The infidels have indeed been rewarded for that which they had been doing
