Surah 102 At-Takathur [The Piling Up - The Emulous Desire]

102 At-Takathur

1 Alhakumu alttakathuru
2 Hatta zurtumu almaqabira
3 Kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
4 Thumma kalla sawfa taAAlamoona
5 Kalla law taAAlamoona AAilma alyaqeeni
6 Latarawunna aljaheema
7 Thumma latarawunnaha AAayna alyaqeeni
8 Thumma latusalunna yawmaithin AAani alnnaAAeemi



The Piling Up - The Emulous Desire

1 The mutual rivalry (for piling up of worldly things) diverts you,
2 Until you visit the graves (i.e. till you die).
3 Nay! You shall come to know!
4 Again nay! You shall come to know!
5 Nay! If you knew with a sure knowledge (the end result of piling up, you would not have been occupied yourselves in worldly things).
6 Verily, You shall see the blazing Fire (Hell)!
7 And again, you shall see it with certainty of sight!
8 Then on that Day you shall be asked about the delights (you indulged in, in this world)!
