A warning to mankind,-
لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمۡ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوۡ يَتَأَخَّرَ
Liman shaa minkum an yataqaddama aw yataakhkhara
To any of you that chooses to press forward, or to follow behind;-

Kullu nafsin bima kasabat raheenatun
Every soul will be (held) in pledge for its deeds.

مَا سَلَكَكُمۡ فِي سَقَرَ

"What led you into Hell Fire?"
قَالُواْ لَمۡ نَكُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُصَلِّينَ

They will say: "We were not of those who prayed;
وَلَمۡ نَكُ نُطۡعِمُ ٱلۡمِسۡكِينَ
Walam naku nutAAimu almiskeena
"Nor were we of those who fed the indigent;
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ مَعَ ٱلۡخَآئِضِينَ
Wakunna nakhoodu maAAa alkhaideena
"But we used to talk vanities with vain talkers;
وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ
Wakunna nukaththibu biyawmi alddeeni
"And we used to deny the Day of Judgment,
حَتَّىٰٓ أَتَىٰنَا ٱلۡيَقِينُ
Hatta atana alyaqeenu
"Until there came to us (the Hour) that is certain."
