لَعَلّي أَعمَلُ صالِحًا فيما تَرَكتُ ۚ كَلّا ۚ إِنَّها كَلِمَةٌ هُوَ قائِلُها ۖ وَمِن وَرائِهِم بَرزَخٌ إِلىٰ يَومِ يُبعَثونَ
That I might do righteousness in that which I left behind." No! It is only a word he is saying; and behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected.
فَإِذا نُفِخَ فِي الصّورِ فَلا أَنسابَ بَينَهُم يَومَئِذٍ وَلا يَتَساءَلونَ
So when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another.
فَمَن ثَقُلَت مَوازينُهُ فَأُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ المُفلِحونَ
And those whose scales are heavy [with good deeds] - it is they who are the successful.
وَمَن خَفَّت مَوازينُهُ فَأُولـٰئِكَ الَّذينَ خَسِروا أَنفُسَهُم في جَهَنَّمَ خالِدونَ
But those whose scales are light - those are the ones who have lost their souls, [being] in Hell, abiding eternally.
تَلفَحُ وُجوهَهُمُ النّارُ وَهُم فيها كالِحونَ
The Fire will sear their faces, and they therein will have taut smiles.
أَلَم تَكُن آياتي تُتلىٰ عَلَيكُم فَكُنتُم بِها تُكَذِّبونَ
[It will be said]. "Were not My verses recited to you and you used to deny them?"
قالوا رَبَّنا غَلَبَت عَلَينا شِقوَتُنا وَكُنّا قَومًا ضالّينَ
They will say, "Our Lord, our wretchedness overcame us, and we were a people astray.
رَبَّنا أَخرِجنا مِنها فَإِن عُدنا فَإِنّا ظالِمونَ
Our Lord, remove us from it, and if we were to return [to evil], we would indeed be wrongdoers."
قالَ اخسَئوا فيها وَلا تُكَلِّمونِ
He will say, "Remain despised therein and do not speak to Me.
إِنَّهُ كانَ فَريقٌ مِن عِبادي يَقولونَ رَبَّنا آمَنّا فَاغفِر لَنا وَارحَمنا وَأَنتَ خَيرُ الرّاحِمينَ
Indeed, there was a party of My servants who said, 'Our Lord, we have believed, so forgive us and have mercy upon us, and You are the best of the merciful.'
فَاتَّخَذتُموهُم سِخرِيًّا حَتّىٰ أَنسَوكُم ذِكري وَكُنتُم مِنهُم تَضحَكونَ
But you took them in mockery to the point that they made you forget My remembrance, and you used to laugh at them.
