083 : Defrauding

Woe to those that deal in fraud,−

 

83:2

 

Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,

 

83:3

 

But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.

 

83:4

 

Do they not think that they will be called to account?−

 

83:5

 

On a Mighty Day,

 

83:6

 

A Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the Worlds?

 

83:7

 

Nay! Surely the record of the wicked is (preserved) in Sijjin.

 

83:8

 

And what will explain to thee what Sijjin is?

 

83:9

 

(There is) a Register (fully) inscribed. Woe, that Day, to those that deny−

 

83:11

 

Those that deny the Day of Judgment.

 

83:12

 

And none can deny it but the Transgressor beyond bounds the Sinner!

 

83:13

 

When Our Signs are rehearsed to him, he says, "Tales of the ancients!"

 

83:14

 

By no means! but on their hearts is the stain of the (ill) which they do!

 

83:15

 

Verily, from (the Light of) their Lord, that Day, will they be veiled.

 

83:16

 

Further, they will enter the Fire of Hell.

 

83:17

 

Further, it will be said to them: "This is the (reality) which ye rejected as false!

 

83:18

 

Day, verily the record of the Righteous is (preserved) in 'Illiyin.

 

83:19

 

And what will explain to thee what 'Illiyun is? (There is) a Register (fully) inscribed,

 

83:21

 

To which bear witness those Nearest (to Allah).

 

83:22

 

Truly the Righteous will be in Bliss:

 

83:23

 

On Thrones (of Dignity) will they command a sight (of all things):

 

83:24

 

Thou wilt recognise in their faces the beaming brightness of Bliss.

 

83:25

 

Their thirst will be slaked with Pure Wine sealed:

 

83:26

 

The seal thereof will be Musk: And for this let those aspire, who have aspirations:

 

83:27

 

With it will be (given) a mixture of Tasnim:

 

83:28

 

A spring, from (the waters) whereof drink those Nearest to Allah.

 

83:29

 

Those in sin used to laugh at those who believed, And whenever they passed by them, used to wink at each other (in mockery);

 

83:31

 

And when they returned to their own people, they would return jesting;

 

83:32

 

And whenever they saw them, they would say, "Behold! These are the people truly astray!"

 

83:33

 

But they had not been sent as keepers over them!

 

83:34

 

But on this Day the Believers will laugh at the Unbelievers:

 

83:35

 

On Thrones (of Dignity) they will command (a sight) (of all things).

 

83:36

 

Will not the Unbelievers have been paid back for what they did? −− 083 : Defrauding −−
