سُوْرَةُ عَبَسَ
Abasa · He frowned
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١﴾
80:1The Prophet frowned and turned away
أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ ﴿٢﴾
80:2Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ ﴿٣﴾
80:3But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ ﴿٤﴾
80:4Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?
أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ﴿٥﴾
80:5As for he who thinks himself without need,
فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ ﴿٦﴾
80:6To him you give attention.
وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ ﴿٧﴾
80:7And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.
وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ ﴿٨﴾
80:8But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]
وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ ﴿٩﴾
80:9While he fears [Allah],
فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ ﴿١٠﴾
80:10From him you are distracted.
كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ ﴿١١﴾
80:11No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;
فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ ﴿١٢﴾
80:12So whoever wills may remember it.
فِى صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ ﴿١٣﴾
80:13[It is recorded] in honored sheets,
مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍۭ ﴿١٤﴾
80:14Exalted and purified,
بِأَيْدِى سَفَرَةٍ ﴿١٥﴾
80:15[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,
كِرَامٍۭ بَرَرَةٍ ﴿١٦﴾
80:16Noble and dutiful.
قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ ﴿١٧﴾
80:17Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.
مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ ﴿١٨﴾
80:18From what substance did He create him?
مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ ﴿١٩﴾
80:19From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;
ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ ﴿٢٠﴾
80:20Then He eased the way for him;
ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ ﴿٢١﴾
80:21Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.
ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ ﴿٢٢﴾
80:22Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.
كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ ﴿٢٣﴾
80:23No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ ﴿٢٤﴾
80:24Then let mankind look at his food -
أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا ٱلْمَآءَ صَبًّا ﴿٢٥﴾
80:25How We poured down water in torrents,
ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ شَقًّا ﴿٢٦﴾
80:26Then We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts],
فَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا ﴿٢٧﴾
80:27And caused to grow within it grain
وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا ﴿٢٨﴾
80:28And grapes and herbage
وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا ﴿٢٩﴾
80:29And olive and palm trees
وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلْبًا ﴿٣٠﴾
80:30And gardens of dense shrubbery
وَفَـٰكِهَةً وَأَبًّا ﴿٣١﴾
80:31And fruit and grass -
مَّتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ ﴿٣٢﴾
80:32[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.
فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ ﴿٣٣﴾
80:33But when there comes the Deafening Blast
يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ ﴿٣٤﴾
80:34On the Day a man will flee from his brother
وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ ﴿٣٥﴾
80:35And his mother and his father
وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ ﴿٣٦﴾
80:36And his wife and his children,
لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ ﴿٣٧﴾
80:37For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ ﴿٣٨﴾
80:38[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -
ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ ﴿٣٩﴾
80:39Laughing, rejoicing at good news.
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ ﴿٤٠﴾
80:40And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.
تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ ﴿٤١﴾
80:41Blackness will cover them.
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ ﴿٤٢﴾
80:42Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
