Woe unto the defrauders:

Waylun lilmutaffifeen

ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ٢

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

Allatheena itha iktalooAAala annasi yastawfoon

وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ٣

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

Wa-itha kaloohum aw wazanoohumyukhsiroon

أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ٤

A written record.

Kitabun marqoom

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ١٠

ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ١١

Those who deny the Day of Judgment

Allatheena yukaththiboonabiyawmi addeen

Which none denieth save each criminal transgressor,

Wama yukaththibu bihi illakullu muAAtadin atheem

إِذَا تُتْلَىٰ عَلَيْهِ ءَايَـٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَـٰطِيرُ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ١٣

Who, when thou readest unto him Our revelations, saith: (Mere) fables of the men of old.

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

Kalla innahum AAan rabbihim yawma-ithinlamahjooboon

ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ١٦

Then lo! they verily will burn in hell,

Thumma innahum lasaloo aljaheem

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ١٧

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

Thumma yuqalu hatha allatheekuntum bihi tukaththiboon

كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَـٰبَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ لَفِى عِلِّيِّينَ١٨

تَعْرِفُ فِى وُجُوهِهِمْ نَضْرَةَ ٱلنَّعِيمِ٢٤

Thou wilt know in their faces the radiance of delight.

TaAArifu fee wujoohihim nadrata annaAAeem

يُسْقَوْنَ مِن رَّحِيقٍ مَّخْتُومٍ٢٥

They are given to drink of a pure wine, sealed,

Yusqawna min raheeqin makhtoom

خِتَـٰمُهُۥ مِسْكٌ ۚ وَفِى ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ ٱلْمُتَنَـٰفِسُونَ٢٦

Whose seal is musk - for this let (all) those strive who strive for bliss -

Lo! the guilty used to laugh at those who believed,

Inna allatheena ajramoo kanoomina allatheena amanoo yadhakoon

وَإِذَا مَرُّوا۟ بِهِمْ يَتَغَامَزُونَ٣٠

And wink one to another when they passed them;

Wa-itha marroo bihim yataghamazoon

وَإِذَا ٱنقَلَبُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِمُ ٱنقَلَبُوا۟ فَكِهِينَ٣١

And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting;

Wa-itha inqalaboo ila ahlihimuinqalaboo fakiheen

وَإِذَا رَأَوْهُمْ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ لَضَآلُّونَ٣٢

And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray.

Wa-itha raawhum qaloo inna haola-iladalloon

وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَـٰفِظِينَ٣٣

Yet they were not sent as guardians over them.

Wama orsiloo AAalayhim hafitheen

فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ٣٤

This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers,

Falyawma allatheena amanoomina alkuffari yadhakoon

عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ٣٥

On high couches, gazing.

AAala al-ara-iki yanthuroon

هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ٣٦

Hal thuwwiba alkuffaru ma kanooyafAAaloon
