justice

إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ

Indeed in that is a lesson [i.e., warning] for whoever would fear [Allāh].

يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ

The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,

وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ

And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -

فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ

So as for he who transgressed

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ

He [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ) ] frowned and turned away

أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ

Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ

To him you give attention.

وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ

But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ

From him you are distracted.

يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ

For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ

And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ

Blackness will cover them.

وَإِذَا ٱلْمَوْءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتْ

And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked

بِأَىِّ ذَنۢبٍ قُتِلَتْ

For what sin she was killed

وَإِذَا ٱلْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ

And when Paradise is brought near,

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّآ أَحْضَرَتْ

A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ

A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.

إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ

Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,

وَإِنَّ ٱلْفُجَّارَ لَفِى جَحِيمٍ

And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ ٱلدِّينِ

They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,

وَيْلٌ لِّلْمُطَفِّفِينَ

Woe to those who give less [than due],

ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكْتَالُوا۟ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسْتَوْفُونَ

Who, when they take a measure from people, take in full.

وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمْ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمْ يُخْسِرُونَ

But if they give by measure or by weight to them, they cause loss.

أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ

Do they not think that they will be resurrected

لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ

For a tremendous Day -

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ

The Day when mankind will stand before the Lord of the worlds?

كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَـٰبَ ٱلْفُجَّارِ لَفِى سِجِّينٍ

No! Indeed, the record of the wicked is in sijjeen.

كِتَـٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ

It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers,

ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ

Who deny the Day of Recompense.

وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعْتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ

And none deny it except every sinful transgressor.

كَلَّآ إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ

No! Indeed, from their Lord, that Day, they will be partitioned.

ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ لَصَالُوا۟ ٱلْجَحِيمِ

Then indeed, they will [enter and] burn in Hellfire.

ثُمَّ يُقَالُ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ

Then it will be said [to them], "This is what you used to deny."

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ

And what can make you know what is ʿilliyyūn?

كِتَـٰبٌ مَّرْقُومٌ

It is [their destination recorded in] a register inscribed

إِنَّ ٱلْأَبْرَارَ لَفِى نَعِيمٍ

Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure

عَلَى ٱلْأَرَآئِكِ يَنظُرُونَ

On adorned couches, observing.

وَمِزَاجُهُۥ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ

And its mixture is of Tasneem,

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَجْرَمُوا۟ كَانُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ يَضْحَكُونَ

Indeed, those who committed crimes used to laugh at those who believed.

وَمَآ أُرْسِلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ حَـٰفِظِينَ

But they had not been sent as guardians over them.

فَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنَ ٱلْكُفَّارِ يَضْحَكُونَ

So Today those who believed are laughing at the disbelievers,

هَلْ ثُوِّبَ ٱلْكُفَّارُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْعَلُونَ

Have the disbelievers [not] been rewarded [this Day] for what they used to do?

فَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ بِيَمِينِهِۦ

Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand,

وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِىَ كِتَـٰبَهُۥ وَرَآءَ ظَهْرِهِۦ

But as for he who is given his record behind his back,

فَسَوْفَ يَدْعُوا۟ ثُبُورًا

He will cry out for destruction

وَيَصْلَىٰ سَعِيرًا

And [enter to] burn in a Blaze.

إِنَّهُۥ ظَنَّ أَن لَّن يَحُورَ

Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allāh].

وَٱللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يُوعُونَ

And Allāh is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.
