Woe to those\n That deal in fraud,\u2014\n2. Those who, when they\n Have to receive by measure\n From men, exact full measure,\n3. But when they have\n To give by measure\n Or weight to men,\n Give less than due.\n4. Do they not think\n That they will be called\n To account?\u2014\n5. On a Mighty Day,\n6. A Day when (all) mankind\n Will stand before\n The Lord of the Worlds?\n7. Nay! Surely the Record\n Of the Wicked is\n(Preserved) in Sijj\u012bn.\n8. And what will explain\n To thee what Sijj\u012bn is?\n9. (There is) a Register\n (Fully) inscribed.\n10. Woe, that Day, to those\n That deny\u2014\n11. Those that deny\n The Day of Judgment.\n12. And none can deny it\n But the Transgressor\n Beyond bounds,\n The Sinner!\n13. When Our Signs are rehearsed\n To him, he says,\n \"Tales of the Ancients!\"\n14. By no means!\n But on their hearts\n Is the stain of the (ill)\n Which they do!\n15. Verily, from (the Light\n Of) their Lord, that Day,\n Will they be veiled.\n16. Further, they will enter\n The Fire of Hell.\n17. Further, it will be said\n To them: \"This is\n The (reality) which ye\n Rejected as false!\n18. Nay, verily the Record\n Of the Righteous is\n (Preserved) in \u2018Ill\u012by\u012bn.\n19. And what will explain\n To thee what \u2018Ill\u012by\u012bn is?\n20. (There is) a Register\n (Fully) inscribed,\n21. To which bear witness\n Those Nearest (to God),\n22. Truly the Righteous\n Will be in Bliss:\n23. On Thrones (of Dignity)\n Will they command a sight\n (Of all things):\n24. Thou wilt recognise\n In their Faces\n The beaming brightness of Bliss.\n25. Their thirst will be slaked\n With Pure Wine sealed:\n26. The seal thereof will be\n Musk: and for this\n Let those aspire,\n Who have aspirations:\n27. With it will be (given)\n A mixture of Tasn\u012bm:\n28. A spring, from (the waters)\n Whereof drink\n Those Nearest to God.\n29. Those in sin used\n To laugh at those\n Who believed,\n30. And whenever they passed\n By them, used to wink\n At each other (in mockery);\n31. And when they returned\n To their own people,\n They would return jesting;\n32. And whenever they saw them,\n They would say, \"Behold!\n These are the people\n Truly astray!\"\n33. But they had not been\n Sent as Keepers over them!\n34. But on this Day\n The Believers will laugh\n At the Unbelievers:\n35. On Thrones (of Dignity)\n They will command (a sight)\n (Of all things),\n36. Will not the Unbelievers\n Have been paid back\n For what they did?","title":"The Holy Quran: S\u016bra LXXXIII. Ta\u1e6df\u012bf, or ...","type":"page"}
