|---|
| 83:1 | | Woe be to those who make a default in any of their duties and give short measure |
| 83:2 | | When they receive measure from other people they receive in full (not allowing the least shortage and loss) |
| 83:3 | | But when they give by measure to others or weigh to them they give them less (than what is due) |
| 83:4 | | Do not such people realize that they will be raised (to life again) |
| 83:5 | | To face (and hear the Judgment of) that Great Day |
| 83:6 | | The Day when mankind shall stand before the Lord of the worlds |
| 83:7 | | Nay, (not at all as they believe) the record of (the deeds) of the wicked is in Sijjin (- the register of a prison |
| 83:8 | | What should make you know what that Sijjin is |
| 83:9 | | (It is) a book written (distinctly and comprehensively) |
| 83:10 | | On that Day woe shall befall those who belie (the truth) |
| 83:11 | | Those that belie the Day of Requital |
| 83:12 | | No one can treat it as a lie except every sinful transgressor |
| 83:13 | | (Who) when Our Messages are recited to him says, `(These are) mere fables of the ancients. |
| 83:14 | | Nay (not at all so), the truth is that their (evil) deeds have rusted their hearts |
| 83:15 | | Nay (We repeat, not at all so). Verily, they shall be debarred from (the sight and mercy of) their Lord that day |
| 83:16 | | Then they shall surely enter into the flaming Fire |
| 83:17 | | Then it shall be said (to them), `This is that (very punishment) which you used to cry lies to. |
| 83:18 | | Behold! verily the record (of the righteous deeds) of the virtuous will be in `Illiyyin (- the register of those enjoying the most exalted ranks) |
| 83:19 | | And what should make you know what `Illiyyun is |
| 83:20 | | It is a book (distinctly and comprehensively) written |
| 83:21 | | Which those drawn near (to their Lord) will find present |
| 83:22 | | The virtuous shall indeed be in (a state of) bliss (that Day) |
| 83:23 | | (Reclining) upon raised couches they shall be looking (at every thing all around) |
| 83:24 | | You shall find freshness and bloom of bliss in their faces |
| 83:25 | | They shall be given to drink a pure and delightfully refreshing beverage sealed (and secure from all contamination) |
| 83:26 | | (Even) the sealing and dregs of which will have flavour of musk, so to this (noble end) let (all) the aspirants aspire |
| 83:27 | | And this (beverage) will be tempered with Tasnim (flowing from on high) |
| 83:28 | | (This Tasnim is) a spring of which those drawn near (to God) shall drink |
| 83:29 | | Those who had severed their ties (with God) used to laugh at those who believed |
| 83:30 | | And when they passed by them (- the believers) they winked at one another (by way of ridiculously finding fault with them) |
| 83:31 | | And when they returned to their companions they returned exulting with pride |
| 83:32 | | And when they saw these (Muslims) they said, `These are surely the straying ones! |
| 83:33 | | Though they were not deputed as guardians (to guard) over them |
| 83:34 | | Now, on this day (of Judgment) it is the believers who will wonder at the disbelievers |
| 83:35 | | (Seated) on raised couches of (dignity). They (- the believers) will be looking (at the miserable state of the disbelievers in Gehenna) |
| 83:36 | | (Then it shall be said,) `The disbelievers have been duly requitted for (the misdeeds) that they used to do. |
