وَالوَزنُ يَومَئِذٍ الحَقُّ ۚ فَمَن ثَقُلَت مَوازينُهُ فَأُولـٰئِكَ هُمُ المُفلِحونَ

On that Day, the weighing is the truth. Those whose scales are heavy will find success.

وَمَن خَفَّت مَوازينُهُ فَأُولـٰئِكَ الَّذينَ خَسِروا أَنفُسَهُم بِما كانوا بِآياتِنا يَظلِمونَ

However, those with light scales will have lost their souls, for they had denied Our signs.

وَلَقَد مَكَّنّاكُم فِي الأَرضِ وَجَعَلنا لَكُم فيها مَعايِشَ ۗ قَليلًا ما تَشكُرونَ

We established you on earth and provided for your sustenance and growth. Yet, seldom do you give thanks.

وَلَقَد خَلَقناكُم ثُمَّ صَوَّرناكُم ثُمَّ قُلنا لِلمَلائِكَةِ اسجُدوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدوا إِلّا إِبليسَ لَم يَكُن مِنَ السّاجِدينَ

We created you, then We fashioned you, then We said to the angels, “Prostrate yourselves before Adam.” They all prostrated, except Iblis, he was not of those who prostrated.

قالَ ما مَنَعَكَ أَلّا تَسجُدَ إِذ أَمَرتُكَ ۖ قالَ أَنا خَيرٌ مِنهُ خَلَقتَني مِن نارٍ وَخَلَقتَهُ مِن طينٍ

He asked, “What prevented you from prostrating when I commanded you?” He replied, “I am superior to him; You created me from fire, but You created him from mud.”

قالَ أَنظِرني إِلىٰ يَومِ يُبعَثونَ

He pleaded, “Delay me until the Day they are resurrected.”

قالَ إِنَّكَ مِنَ المُنظَرينَ

He replied, “You are granted a delay.”

قالَ فَبِما أَغوَيتَني لَأَقعُدَنَّ لَهُم صِراطَكَ المُستَقيمَ

He said, “Since You caused me to stray, I will sit in wait for them on Your straight path.

ثُمَّ لَآتِيَنَّهُم مِن بَينِ أَيديهِم وَمِن خَلفِهِم وَعَن أَيمانِهِم وَعَن شَمائِلِهِم ۖ وَلا تَجِدُ أَكثَرَهُم شاكِرينَ

Then, I will come at them from before them and from behind them, from their right and their left. And You won’t find most of them as thankful.”

قالَ اخرُج مِنها مَذءومًا مَدحورًا ۖ لَمَن تَبِعَكَ مِنهُم لَأَملَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنكُم أَجمَعينَ

He said, “Get out of it, despised and defeated. Whoever among them follows you—I will fill up Hell with you all.
