who amuse themselves with idle chatter

alladhīna hum fī khawḍin yalʿabūn

یَوۡمَ یُدَعُّونَ إِلَىٰ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعًّا ۝١٣

on that Day they will be thrust into the Fire of Hell

هَـٰذِهِ ٱلنَّارُ ٱلَّتِی كُنتُم بِهَا تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝١٤

‘This is the Fire you used to deny

hādhihi l-nāru allatī kuntum bihā tukadhibūn

أَفَسِحۡرٌ هَـٰذَاۤ أَمۡ أَنتُمۡ لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ ۝١٥

So is this sorcery? Do you still not see it

Burn in it––it makes no difference whether you bear it patiently or not–– you are only being repaid for what you have done.’

rejoicing in their Lord’s gifts: He has saved them from the torment of the Blaze

fākihīna bimā ātāhum rabbuhum wawaqāhum rabbuhum ʿadhāba l-jaḥīm

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشۡرَبُوا۟ هَنِیۤءَۢا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ ۝١٩

‘Eat and drink with healthy enjoyment as a reward for what you have done.’

مُتَّكِءِینَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرࣲ مَّصۡفُوفَةࣲۖ وَزَوَّجۡنَـٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِینࣲ ۝٢٠

They are comfortably seated on couches arranged in rows; We pair them with beautiful-eyed maidens

وَٱلَّذِینَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَٱتَّبَعَتۡهُمۡ ذُرِّیَّتُهُم بِإِیمَـٰنٍ أَلۡحَقۡنَا بِهِمۡ ذُرِّیَّتَهُمۡ وَمَاۤ أَلَتۡنَـٰهُم مِّنۡ عَمَلِهِم مِّن شَیۡءࣲۚ كُلُّ ٱمۡرِىِٕۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِینࣱ ۝٢١

We unite the believers with their offspring who followed them in faith–– We do not deny them any of the rewards for their deeds: each person is in pledge for his own deeds––

We provide them with any fruit or meat they desire

wa-amdadnāhum bifākihatin walaḥmin mimmā yashtahūn

یَتَنَـٰزَعُونَ فِیهَا كَأۡسࣰا لَّا لَغۡوࣱ فِیهَا وَلَا تَأۡثِیمࣱ ۝٢٣

They pass around a cup which does not lead to any idle talk or sin

yatanāzaʿūna fīhā kasan lā laghwun fīhā walā tathīmu

۞ وَیَطُوفُ عَلَیۡهِمۡ غِلۡمَانࣱ لَّهُمۡ كَأَنَّهُمۡ لُؤۡلُؤࣱ مَّكۡنُونࣱ ۝٢٤

Devoted youths like hidden pearls wait on them

إِنَّا كُنَّا مِن قَبۡلُ نَدۡعُوهُۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلۡبَرُّ ٱلرَّحِیمُ ۝٢٨

We used to pray to Him: He is the Good, the Merciful One.’

innā kunnā min qablu nadʿūhu innahu huwa l-baru l-raḥīm

فَذَكِّرۡ فَمَاۤ أَنتَ بِنِعۡمَتِ رَبِّكَ بِكَاهِنࣲ وَلَا مَجۡنُونٍ ۝٢٩

So [Prophet] remind [people]. By the grace of your Lord [Prophet], you are neither oracle nor madman

أَمۡ تَأۡمُرُهُمۡ أَحۡلَـٰمُهُم بِهَـٰذَاۤۚ أَمۡ هُمۡ قَوۡمࣱ طَاغُونَ ۝٣٢
