The Rivalry in world increase
التكاثر
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
أَلْهَـٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ ١
Competition for more ˹gains˺ diverts you ˹from Allah˺
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ ٢
until you end up in ˹your˺ graves
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٣
But no! You will soon come to know
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٤
Again, no! You will soon come to know
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ ٥
Indeed, if you were to know ˹your fate˺ with certainty, ˹you would have acted differently˺
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ ٦
˹But˺ you will surely see the Hellfire
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ ٧
Again, you will surely see it with the eye of certainty
ثُمَّ لَتُسْــَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ٨
Then, on that Day, you will definitely be questioned about ˹your worldly˺ pleasures
