مَٰلِكِ يَوۡمِ ٱلدِّينِ
Sovereign of the Day of Recompense.[1]
1- i.e., repayment and compensation for whatever was earned of good or evil during life on this earth.
كُلُّ نَفۡسٖ ذَآئِقَةُ ٱلۡمَوۡتِۗ وَإِنَّمَا تُوَفَّوۡنَ أُجُورَكُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۖ فَمَن زُحۡزِحَ عَنِ ٱلنَّارِ وَأُدۡخِلَ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ فَقَدۡ فَازَۗ وَمَا ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنۡيَآ إِلَّا مَتَٰعُ ٱلۡغُرُورِ
Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion.
وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَطۡمَعُ أَن يَغۡفِرَ لِي خَطِيٓـَٔتِي يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ
And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense."
وَقَالُواْ يَٰوَيۡلَنَا هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ
They will say, "O woe to us! This is the Day of Recompense."
هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ ٱلَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ
[They will be told], "This is the Day of Judgement which you used to deny."
يَسۡـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ
They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?"
يَوۡمَ هُمۡ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفۡتَنُونَ
[It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire.
ذُوقُواْ فِتۡنَتَكُمۡ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِي كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسۡتَعۡجِلُونَ
[And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient."
وَإِنَّ ٱلۡفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٖ
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا يَوۡمَ ٱلدِّينِ
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
وَمَا هُمۡ عَنۡهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ
And never therefrom will they be absent.
وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
ثُمَّ مَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلدِّينِ
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
يَوۡمَ لَا تَمۡلِكُ نَفۡسٞ لِّنَفۡسٖ شَيۡـٔٗاۖ وَٱلۡأَمۡرُ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلَّهِ
It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with AllŒh.
