عَلى قُربِ بَعضٍ في التَجاوُرِ مِن بَعضِ
And dwellers of a house have no contact with one another,
And dwellers of a land with no bonding between them
despite their nearness to one another as neighbors.
Despite some being neighbors to others
كَأَنَّas though خَواتيماًseals مِنَof الطينِclay بَينَهُمbetween them
كَأَنَّ خَواتيماً مِنَ الطينِ بَينَهُم

فَلَيسَ لَها حَتّى القِيامَةِ مِن فَضِّ
As though there were seals of clay between them,
As if clay seals were between them
so they will not be broken until the Resurrection.
So they have no goodness until Judgment Day
