| أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ (١)The mutual rivalry for piling up (the good things of this world) diverts you (from the more serious things), | 102:1 |
| حَتَّىٰ زُرْتُمُ الْمَقَابِرَ (٢)Until ye visit the graves. | 102:2 |
| كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ (٣)But nay, ye soon shall know (the reality). | 102:3 |
| ثُمَّ كَلَّا سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ (٤)Again, ye soon shall know! | 102:4 |
| كَلَّا لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عِلْمَ الْيَقِينِ (٥)Nay, were ye to know with certainty of mind, (ye would beware!) | 102:5 |
| لَتَرَوُنَّ الْجَحِيمَ (٦)Ye shall certainly see Hell-Fire! | 102:6 |
| ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيْنَ الْيَقِينِ (٧)Again, ye shall see it with certainty of sight! | 102:7 |
| ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ (٨)Then, shall ye be questioned that Day about the joy (ye indulged in!). | 102:8 |
