Chap 83: DEFRAUDING, THE CHEATS, CHEATING (83:0)

Woe to those that deal in fraud,- (83:1)

Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure, (83:2)

But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due (83:3)

Do they not think that they will be called to account?- (83:4)

On a Mighty Day, (83:5)

A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds? (83:6)

Day! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin (83:7)

And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is? (83:8)

(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed (83:9)

Woe, that Day, to those that deny- (83:10)

Those that deny the Day of Judgment (83:11)

And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner! (83:12)

When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!" (83:13)

By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do! (83:14)

Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled (83:15)

Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell (83:16)

Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false! (83:17)

Day, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin (83:18)

And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is? (83:19)

(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed, (83:20)

To which bear witness those Nearest (to God) (83:21)

Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss: (83:22)

On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things): (83:23)

Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss (83:24)

Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed: (83:25)

The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations: (83:26)

With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim: (83:27)

A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to God (83:28)

Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed, (83:29)

And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery); (83:30)

And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting; (83:31)

And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!" (83:32)

But they had not been sent as keepers over them! (83:33)

But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers: (83:34)

On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things) (83:35)

Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did? (83:36)
