English - Chapter 83 - Al-Mutaffifin

Woe to those who short change

Those who when they are receiving any measure from the people, they take it in full

And when they are the ones giving measure or weight, they give less than due

Do these not assume that they will be resurrected

To a great Day

The Day mankind will stand before the Lord of the worlds

No, the record of the wicked is in Sijjeen

And do you know what is Sijjeen

A numbered record

Woe on that Day to the deniers

Those who denied the Day of recompense

And none will deny it except every transgressor who knows no bounds

When Our verses are recited to him, he says: "Tales of the ancients

No, a covering has been placed on their hearts for what they have earned

No, they will be blocked from their Lord on that Day

Then they will be entered into the Hell

Then it will be said: "This is what you used to deny

No, the record of the pious is in Elliyeen

And do you know what is Elliyeen

A numbered record

To be witnessed by those brought near

The pious are in Paradise

Upon luxurious furnishings, observing

You know in their faces the look of Paradise

They are given drink from a pure sealed vial

Its seal will be of musk, so in that let those who are in competition compete

And its taste will be special

A spring where those who are brought near will drink

Those who were criminals used to laugh at those who had believed

And when they passed by them they used to wink to each other

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

And if they see them they Say: "These are indeed misguided

But they were not sent over them as caretakers

And today, those who had believed are laughing at the rejecters

Upon the luxurious furnishings they are observing

Have the rejecters been paid for what they used to do
