Woe to the defrauders!

Those who take full measure ˹when they buy˺ from people,

Those who take full measure ˹when they buy˺ from people,

when they measure or weigh for buyers,

but give less

Do such people not think

that they will be resurrected

for a tremendous Day—

the Day ˹all˺ people will stand

before the Lord of all worlds?

But no!

The wicked are certainly

bound for Sijjîn ˹in the depths of Hell˺—

and what will make you realize

what Sijjîn is?—

a fate ˹already˺ sealed.

Woe on that Day to the deniers—

those who deny Judgment Day!

None would deny it except every evildoing transgressor.

Whenever Our revelations are recited to them,

they say, “Ancient fables!”

But no! In fact, their hearts have been stained

by all ˹the evil˺ they used to commit!

Undoubtedly, they will be sealed off from their Lord on that Day.

Moreover, they

will surely burn in Hell,

and then be told,

“This is what you used to deny.”

But no!

The virtuous are certainly bound for ’Illiyûn ˹in elevated Gardens˺—

and what will make you realize

what ’Illiyûn is?—

a fate ˹already˺ sealed,

witnessed by those nearest ˹to Allah˺.

Surely the virtuous will be in bliss,

˹seated˺ on ˹canopied˺ couches,

gazing around.

You will recognize on their faces the glow of delight.

They will be given a drink of sealed, pure wine,

whose last sip will smell like musk.

So let whoever aspires to this strive ˹diligently˺.

And this drink’s flavour will come from Tasnîm—

a spring from which those nearest ˹to Allah˺ will drink.

Indeed, the wicked

used to laugh at the believers,

whenever they passed by,

wink to one another

upon returning to their own people.

and muse ˹over these exploits˺

And when they saw the faithful,

they would say, “These ˹people˺ are truly astray,”

even though they were not sent as keepers over the believers.

But on that Day

the believers

will be laughing at the disbelievers,

as they sit on ˹canopied˺ couches,

looking on.

“Have the disbelievers ˹not˺ been paid back

for what they used to do?”
