IslamAwakened.com Qur'an Tafsir of Surah al-Mutaffifin - Defrauding, The Defrauders, The Cheats, Cheating as rendered by
Ali Quli Qara'i
83:1
Woe to the defrauders who use short measures
83:2
who, when they measure [a commodity bought] from the people, take the full measure
83:3
but diminish when they measure or weigh for them
83:4
Do they not know that they will be resurrecte
83:5
on a tremendous day
83:6
a day when mankind will stand before the Lord of all the worlds
83:7
No indeed! The record of the vicious is indeed in Sijja«n
83:8
And what will show you what is Sijja«n
83:9
It is a written record
83:10
Woe to the deniers on that day
83:11
who deny the Day of Retribution
83:12
and none denies it except every sinful transgressor
83:13
When Our signs are recited to him, he says, ‘Myths of the ancients!&rsquo
83:14
No indeed! Rather their hearts have been sullied by what they have been earning
83:15
No indeed! They will be alienated from their Lord on that day
83:16
Then they will indeed enter hell
83:17
then told, ‘This is what you used to deny!&rsquo
83:18
No indeed! The record of the pious is indeed in 'Illiyun
83:19
And what will show you what is 'Illiyun
83:20
It is a written record
83:21
witnessed by those brought near [to Allah]
83:22
Indeed the pious shall be amid bliss
83:23
observing, [as they recline] on couches
83:24
You will perceive in their faces the freshness of blis
83:25
as they are served with a sealed wine
83:26
whose seal is musk —for such let the viers vie&mdash
83:27
and whose seasoning is from Tasna«m
83:28
a spring where those brought near [to Allah] drink
83:29
Indeed the guilty used to laugh at the faithful
83:30
and when they passed them by they would wink at each other
83:31
and when they returned to their folks they would return rejoicing
83:32
and when they saw them they would say, ‘Indeed those are the astray!&rsquo
83:33
Though they were not sent to watch over them
83:34
So today the faithful will laugh at the faithless
83:35
observing from couches
83:36
Have the faithless been requited for what they used to do
