Asad, Surah 83: Defrauding (Al-Mutaffifin)

Surahs

[1] WOE UNTO THOSE who give short measure:

[2] those who, when they are to receive their due from [other] people, demand that it be given in full –

[3] but when they have to measure or weigh whatever they owe to others, give less than what is due!

[4] Do they not know that they are bound to be raised from the dead

[5] [and called to account] on an awesome Day –

[6] the Day when all men shall stand before the Sustainer of all the worlds?

[7] NAY, VERILY, the record of the wicked is indeed [set down] in a mode inescapable!

[8] And what could make thee conceive what that that mode inescapable will be?

[9] A record [indelibly] inscribed!

[10] Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth –

[11] those who give the lie to the [coming of] Judgment Day:

[12] for, none gives the lie to it but such as are wont to transgress against all that is [and are] immersed in sin:

[13] [and so,] whenever Our messages are conveyed to them, they but say, "Fables of ancient times!"

[14] Nay, but their hearts are corroded by all [the evil] that they were wont to do!

[15] Nay, verily, from [the grace of] their Sustainer shall they on that Day be debarred;

[16] and then, behold, they shall enter the blazing fire

[17] and be told: "This is the [very thing] to which you were wont to give the lie!"

[18] NAY, VERILY - the record of the truly virtuous is [set down] in a mode most lofty!

[19] And what could make thee conceive what that mode most lofty will be?

[20] A record [indelibly] inscribed,

[21] witnessed~ by all who have [ever] been drawn close unto God.

[22] Behold, [in the life to come] the truly virtuous will indeed be in bliss:

[23] [resting on couches, they will look up [to God]:

[24] upon their faces thou wilt see the brightness of bliss.

[25] They will be given a drink of pure wine whereon the seal [of God] will have been set,

[26] pouring forth with a fragrance of musk. To that [wine of paradise], then, let all such aspire as [are willing to] aspire to things of high account:

[27] for it is composed of all that is most exalting

[28] a source [of bliss] whereof those who are drawn close unto God shall drink.

[29] BEHOLD, those who have abandoned themselves to sin are wont to laugh at such as have attained to faith

[30] and whenever they pass by them, they wink at one another [derisively];

[31] and whenever they return to people of their own kind, they return full of jests;

[32] and whenever they see those [who believe,] they say, "Behold, these [people] have indeed gone astray!"

[33] And, withal, they have no call to watch over [the beliefs of] others...

[34] But on the Day [of Judgment], they who had attained to faith will [be able to] laugh at the [erstwhile] deniers of the truth:

[35] [for, resting in paradise] on couches, they will look on [and say to themselves]:

[36] "Are these deniers of the truth being [thus] requited for [aught but] what they were wont to do?"
