أَلۡهَىٰكُمُ ٱلتَّكَاثُرُ ١
Rivalry [and vainglory] distracted you
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
حَتَّىٰ زُرۡتُمُ ٱلۡمَقَابِرَ ٢
until you visited [even] the graves.
كـَلَّا سَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَ ٣
No indeed, soon you will know!
ثُمَّ كـَلَّا سَوۡفَ تَعۡلَمُونَ ٤
No indeed, soon you will know for yet another time!
كـَلَّا لَوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عِلۡمَ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ٥
Indeed, were you to know with certain knowledge,
لَتَرَوُنَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ ٦
you would have surely seen hell [in this very life].
ثُمَّ لَتَرَوُنَّهَا عَيۡنَ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ٧
Afterward you will surely see it with the eye of certainty.
ثُمَّ لَتُسۡـَٔلُنَّ يَوۡمَئِذٍ عَنِ ٱلنَّعِيمِ ٨
Then, on that day, you will surely be questioned concerning the Blessing.
