At-Takathur

The Rivalry in world increase

التكاثر

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

1

أَلْهَـٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ ١

Competition for more ˹gains˺ diverts you ˹from Allah˺

2

حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ ٱلْمَقَابِرَ ٢

until you end up in ˹your˺ graves

3

كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٣

But no! You will soon come to know

4

ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ٤

Again, no! You will soon come to know

5

كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ ٱلْيَقِينِ ٥

Indeed, if you were to know ˹your fate˺ with certainty, ˹you would have acted differently˺

6

لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ ٦

˹But˺ you will surely see the Hellfire

7

ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ ٱلْيَقِينِ ٧

Again, you will surely see it with the eye of certainty

8

ثُمَّ لَتُسْــَٔلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ٨

Then, on that Day, you will definitely be questioned about ˹your worldly˺ pleasures
