Surah Al-Mutaffifin

وَيْلٌۭ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ۝١

Woe to those who give less [than due],

الَّذِينَ إِذَا اكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى النَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ۝٢

Who, when they take a measure from people, take in full.

وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ۝٣

But if they give by measure or by weight to them, they cause loss.

أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ۝٤

Do they not think that they will be resurrected

لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍۢ۝٥

For a tremendous Day -

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَٰلَمِينَ۝٦

The Day when mankind will stand before the Lord of the worlds?

كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ الْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍۢ۝٧

No! Indeed, the record of the wicked is in sijjeen.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٌۭ۝٨

And what can make you know what is sijjeen?

كِتَٰبٌۭ مَّرْقُومٌۭ۝٩

It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed.

وَيْلٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ۝١٠

Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

الَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ الدِّينِ۝١١

Who deny the Day of Recompense.

وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ۝١٢

And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ۝١٣

When Our verses are recited to him, he says, "Legends of the former peoples."

كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ يَكْسِبُونَ۝١٤

No! Rather, the stain has covered their hearts of that which they were earning.

كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ۝١٥

No! Indeed, from their Lord, that Day, they will be partitioned.

ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ الْجَحِيمِ۝١٦

Then indeed, they will [enter and] burn in Hellfire.

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَٰذَا الَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ۝١٧

Then it will be said [to them], "This is what you used to deny."

كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ۝١٨

No! Indeed, the record of the righteous is in 'illiyyun.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ۝١٩

And what can make you know what is 'illiyyun?

كِتَٰبٌۭ مَّرْقُومٌۭ۝٢٠

It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed

يَشْهَدُهُ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ۝٢١

Which is witnessed by those brought near [to Allah].

إِنَّ الْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ۝٢٢

Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

عَلَى الْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ۝٢٣

On adorned couches, observing.

تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ النَّعِيمِ۝٢٤

You will recognize in their faces the radiance of pleasure.

يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍۢ مَّخْتُومٍ۝٢٥

They will be given to drink [pure] wine [which was] sealed.

خِتَٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌۭ ۚ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ الْمُتَنَٰفِسُونَ۝٢٦

The last of it is musk. So for this let the competitors compete.

وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ۝٢٧

And its mixture is of Tasneem,

عَيْنًۭا يَشْرَبُ بِهَا الْمُقَرَّبُونَ۝٢٨

A spring from which those near [to Allah] drink.

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ۝٢٩

Indeed, those who committed crimes used to laugh at those who believed.

وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ۝٣٠

And when they passed by them, they would exchange derisive glances.

وَإِذَا انقَلَبُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمُ انقَلَبُوا۟ فَكِهِينَ۝٣١

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

وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ۝٣٢

And when they saw them, they would say, "Indeed, those are truly lost."

وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَٰفِظِينَ۝٣٣

But they had not been sent as guardians over them.

فَالْيَوْمَ الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ۝٣٤

So Today those who believed are laughing at the disbelievers,

عَلَى الْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ۝٣٥

On adorned couches, observing.

هَلْ ثُوِّبَ الْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ۝٣٦

Have the disbelievers [not] been rewarded [this Day] for what they used to do?
