Sorah Abasa ( He frowned )

English - Sahih International

Sorah Abasa ( He frowned ) - Verses Number 42

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ( 1 )

The Prophet frowned and turned away

أَن جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ ( 2 )

Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّىٰ ( 3 )

But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ ( 4 )

Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

أَمَّا مَنِ اسْتَغْنَىٰ ( 5 )

As for he who thinks himself without need,

فَأَنتَ لَهُ تَصَدَّىٰ ( 6 )

To him you give attention.

وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ ( 7 )

And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.

وَأَمَّا مَن جَاءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ ( 8 )

But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ ( 9 )

While he fears [Allah],

فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ ( 10 )

From him you are distracted.

كَلَّا إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ ( 11 )

No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;

فَمَن شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ ( 12 )

So whoever wills may remember it.

فِي صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ ( 13 )

[It is recorded] in honored sheets,

مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍ ( 14 )

Exalted and purified,

بِأَيْدِي سَفَرَةٍ ( 15 )

[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

كِرَامٍ بَرَرَةٍ ( 16 )

Noble and dutiful.

قُتِلَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا أَكْفَرَهُ ( 17 )

Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.

مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقَهُ ( 18 )

From what substance did He create him?

مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَهُ ( 19 )

From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;

ثُمَّ السَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُ ( 20 )

Then He eased the way for him;

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُ فَأَقْبَرَهُ ( 21 )

Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَاءَ أَنشَرَهُ ( 22 )

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَا أَمَرَهُ ( 23 )

No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِ ( 24 )

Then let mankind look at his food -

أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا الْمَاءَ صَبًّا ( 25 )

How We poured down water in torrents,

ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا الْأَرْضَ شَقًّا ( 26 )

Then We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts],

فَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا ( 27 )

And caused to grow within it grain

وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا ( 28 )

And grapes and herbage

وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا ( 29 )

And olive and palm trees

وَحَدَائِقَ غُلْبًا ( 30 )

And gardens of dense shrubbery

وَفَاكِهَةً وَأَبًّا ( 31 )

And fruit and grass -

مَّتَاعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ ( 32 )

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.

فَإِذَا جَاءَتِ الصَّاخَّةُ ( 33 )

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ الْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ ( 34 )

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

وَأُمِّهِ وَأَبِيهِ ( 35 )

And his mother and his father

وَصَاحِبَتِهِ وَبَنِيهِ ( 36 )

And his wife and his children,

لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ ( 37 )

For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ ( 38 )

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ ( 39 )

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ ( 40 )

And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ ( 41 )

Blackness will cover them.

أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْكَفَرَةُ الْفَجَرَةُ ( 42 )

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
