يَعۡلَمُونَ مَا تَفۡعَلُونَ 12

12 They know all that you do.

إِنَّ ٱلۡأَبۡرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٖ 13

13 (These deeds will be presented in the Hereafter) indeed, the pious persons will be in Delight (i.e. Paradise).

وَإِنَّ ٱلۡفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٖ 14

14 And, indeed, the disbelievers will be in Hell-Fire.

يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ 15

15 They will be thrown (in Hell-Fire) on the Day of Judgement.

وَمَا هُمۡ عَنۡهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ 16

16 And they will never be absent from there (i.e. they will reside there forever).

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ 17

17 And what do you know about the Day of Judgement?

ثُمَّ مَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ 18

18 Again, what do you know about the Day of Judgement (This Verse is repeated to emphasize the horrors and hardships of the Day of Judgement).

يَوۡمَ لَا تَمۡلِكُ نَفۡسٞ لِّنَفۡسٖ شَيۡ‍ٔٗاۖ وَٱلۡأَمۡرُ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلَّهِ 19

19 (It will be) the Day when no person shall have power to benefit another person in any way. All Decisions that Day, will be with Allah (Alone). (Also see Surah Ghafir:16)

وَيۡلٞ لِّلۡمُطَفِّفِينَ 1

1 Woe to those who give less in measure and weight (i.e. to defraud).

ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكۡتَالُواْ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسۡتَوۡفُونَ 2

2 Those who when they receive by measure from people they make sure that they receive full measure.

وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمۡ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمۡ يُخۡسِرُونَ 3

3 And when they give by measure or weight to others, they give less (than fair amount).

أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبۡعُوثُونَ 4

4 Do they not think that they will be brought to life again (for accountability),        

لِيَوۡمٍ عَظِيمٖ 5

5  On a great Day ?

يَوۡمَ يَقُومُ ٱلنَّاسُ لِرَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ 6

6 The Day when all people will stand before the Creator of the universe.

كَلَّآ إِنَّ كِتَٰبَ ٱلۡفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٖ 7

7 Not at all (i.e. the thinking of the disbelievers is not correct). Indeed, the Book (i.e. the records of deeds) of the disbelievers is preserved in Sijjin (a prison or a location in the lowest part of the earth).

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا سِجِّينٞ 8

8 What do you know about Sijjin?

كِتَٰبٞ مَّرۡقُومٞ 9

9 It is a written book (i.e. all deeds are written in it).

وَيۡلٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ 10

10 That Day, woe to those who deny.

ٱلَّذِينَ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِيَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ 11

11 Those who deny the Day of Judgement.

وَمَا يُكَذِّبُ بِهِۦٓ إِلَّا كُلُّ مُعۡتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ 12

12 And none denies it except a transgressor, a sinner.
