Surah Al-Mutaffifin (المطفّفِین)

Ayat 1–25

وَيۡلٌ لِّلۡمُطَفِّفِيۡنَۙ ۝١

83:1Woe unto the defrauders:

الَّذِيۡنَ اِذَا اكۡتَالُوۡا عَلَى النَّاسِ يَسۡتَوۡفُوۡنَۖ ۝٢

83:2Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full,

وَاِذَا كَالُوۡهُمۡ اَوْ وَّزَنُوۡهُمۡ يُخۡسِرُوۡنَؕ ۝٣

83:3But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.

اَلَا يَظُنُّ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ اَنَّهُمۡ مَّبۡعُوۡثُوۡنَۙ ۝٤

83:4Do such (men) not consider that they will be raised again

لِيَوۡمٍ عَظِيۡمٍۙ ۝٥

83:5Unto an awful Day,

يَّوۡمَ يَقُوۡمُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الۡعٰلَمِيۡنَؕ ۝٦

83:6The day when (all) mankind stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

كَلَّاۤ اِنَّ كِتٰبَ الۡفُجَّارِ لَفِىۡ سِجِّيۡنٍؕ ۝٧

83:7Nay, but the record of the vile is in Sijjin -

وَمَاۤ اَدۡرٰٮكَ مَا سِجِّيۡنٌؕ ۝٨

83:8Ah! what will convey unto thee what Sijjin is! -

كِتٰبٌ مَّرۡقُوۡمٌؕ ۝٩

83:9A written record.

وَيۡلٌ يَّوۡمَٮِٕذٍ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِيۡنَۙ ۝١٠

83:10Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

الَّذِيۡنَ يُكَذِّبُوۡنَ بِيَوۡمِ الدِّيۡنِؕ ۝١١

83:11Those who deny the Day of Judgment

وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهٖۤ اِلَّا كُلُّ مُعۡتَدٍ اَثِيۡمٍۙ ۝١٢

83:12Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

اِذَا تُتۡلٰى عَلَيۡهِ اٰيٰتُنَا قَالَ اَسَاطِيۡرُ الۡاَوَّلِيۡنَؕ ۝١٣

83:13Who, when Our revelations are recited unto him, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.

كَلَّا بَلۡ؄ رَانَ عَلٰى قُلُوۡبِهِمۡ مَّا كَانُوۡا يَكۡسِبُوۡنَ ۝١٤

83:14Nay, but that which they have earned is rust upon their hearts.

كَلَّاۤ اِنَّهُمۡ عَنۡ رَّبِّهِمۡ يَوۡمَٮِٕذٍ لَّمَحۡجُوۡبُوۡنَؕ ۝١٥

83:15Nay, but surely on that day they will be covered from (the mercy of) their Lord.

ثُمَّ اِنَّهُمۡ لَصَالُوا الۡجَحِيۡمِؕ ۝١٦

83:16Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هٰذَا الَّذِىۡ كُنۡتُمۡ بِهٖ تُكَذِّبُوۡنَؕ ۝١٧

83:17And it will be said (unto them): This is that which ye used to deny.

كَلَّاۤ اِنَّ كِتٰبَ الۡاَبۡرَارِ لَفِىۡ عِلِّيِّيۡنَؕ ۝١٨

83:18Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyin -

وَمَاۤ اَدۡرٰٮكَ مَا عِلِّيُّوۡنَؕ ۝١٩

83:19Ah, what will convey unto thee what 'Illiyin is! -

كِتٰبٌ مَّرۡقُوۡمٌۙ ۝٢٠

83:20A written record,

يَّشۡهَدُهُ الۡمُقَرَّبُوۡنَؕ ۝٢١

83:21Attested by those who are brought near (unto their Lord).

اِنَّ الۡاَبۡرَارَ لَفِىۡ نَعِيۡمٍۙ ۝٢٢

83:22Lo! the righteous verily are in delight,

عَلَى الۡاَرَآٮِٕكِ يَنۡظُرُوۡنَۙ ۝٢٣

83:23On couches, gazing,

تَعۡرِفُ فِىۡ وُجُوۡهِهِمۡ نَضۡرَةَ النَّعِيۡمِۚ ۝٢٤

83:24Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight.

يُسۡقَوۡنَ مِنۡ رَّحِيۡقٍ مَّخۡتُوۡمٍۙ ۝٢٥

83:25They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed,
