| 83:1 | | "Oh, ruined are the cheaters!" |
| 83:2 | | "-- those who, when they measure out what others owe them, demand it all," |
| 83:3 | | "but when they measure out (what thy owe) to others, they hold some back." |
| 83:4 | | Do these people not realise that they will be raised (from the dead |
| 83:5 | | "for a Mighty Day," |
| 83:6 | | the Day on which all mankind will stand before the Lord of all the Worlds |
| 83:7 | | "No (they are mistaken), but truly, the record of the evil ones is in Sijj?n." |
| 83:8 | | And what can make you understand what Sijj?n is |
| 83:9 | | A book written (in detail about them) |
| 83:10 | | The liars will be in trouble on that day |
| 83:11 | | "Those that deny the Day of Judgement," |
| 83:12 | | "which no one would deny except the very sinful ones who pass the limits," |
| 83:13 | | "who, when Our verses are recited to him, says: 'These are just stories from the old days!'" |
| 83:14 | | "No (they are mistaken), but the things they have done have put rust on their hearts." |
| 83:15 | | "No, and surely on that day they will be veiled from their Lord;" |
| 83:16 | | "then they surely will burn in Hell," |
| 83:17 | | "and it will be said to them, 'This is what you used to deny'" |
| 83:18 | | "No, but surely the record of the good ones is in ?Ill?y?n." |
| 83:19 | | And what can make you understand what ?Ill?y?n is |
| 83:20 | | "A book written (in detail about them)," |
| 83:21 | | witnessed by those who are near (to Allah) |
| 83:22 | | "Truly, the good ones will be in great happiness," |
| 83:23 | | "on couches, gazing (in wonder);" |
| 83:24 | | you will see in their faces the beaming radiance of true deligh |
| 83:25 | | "as they are given a drink of pure nectar, sealed," |
| 83:26 | | whose seal is musk; let those who strive for great achievements strive for this |
| 83:27 | | "(The pure nectar is) mixed with water of Tasn?m," |
| 83:28 | | a fountain where those who are nearest (to Allah) drink |
| 83:29 | | "The sinners used to laugh at the believers," |
| 83:30 | | "and wink to each other (making fun) when they passed them," |
| 83:31 | | "and when they returned to tehir own people, they came telling jokes about them," |
| 83:32 | | "and when they saw them, they said, 'Those people are really confused.'" |
| 83:33 | | "Even though they were not sent to be in charge, watching over them." |
| 83:34 | | "But on this Day, the believers will laugh at the deniers (of the Judgement);" |
| 83:35 | | "on couches, gazing (in wonder)." |
| 83:36 | | Will the unbelievers not be paid back for what they used to do |
