In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ الْمَقَابِرَ
till you reached the grave.
كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
But you will soon come to know.
ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ
But you will soon come to know.
كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ الْيَقِينِ
Indeed, were you to know the truth with certainty,
لَتَرَوُنَّ الْجَحِيمَ
you would see the fire of Hell.
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ الْيَقِينِ
You would see it with the eye of certainty.
ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ
Then on that Day you shall be questioned about your worldly favours.
