Abasa

1 He frowned and turned (his) back,

1 AAabasa watawalla

2 Because there came to him the blind man.

2 An jaahu alaAAma

3 And what would make you know that he would purify himself,

3 Wama yudreeka laAAallahu yazzakka

4 Or become reminded so that the reminder should profit him?

4 Aw yaththakkaru fatanfaAAahu alththikra

5 As for him who considers himself free from need (of you),

5 Amma mani istaghna

6 To him do you address yourself.

6 Faanta lahu tasadda

7 And no blame is on you if he would not purify himself

7 Wama AAalayka alla yazzakka

8 And as to him who comes to you striving hard,

8 Waamma man jaaka yasAAa

9 And he fears,

9 Wahuwa yakhsha

10 From him will you divert yourself.

10 Faanta AAanhu talahha

11 Nay! surely it is an admonishment.

11 Kalla innaha tathkiratun

12 So let him who pleases mind it.

12 Faman shaa thakarahu

13 In honored books,

13 Fee suhufin mukarramatin

14 Exalted, purified,

14 MarfooAAatin mutahharatin

15 In the hands of scribes

15 Biaydee safaratin

16 Noble, virtuous.

16 Kiramin bararatin

17 Cursed be man! how ungrateful is he!

17 Qutila alinsanu ma akfarahu

18 Of what thing did He create him?

18 Min ayyi shayin khalaqahu

19 Of a small seed; He created him, then He made him according to a measure,

19 Min nutfatin khalaqahu faqaddarahu

20 Then (as for) the way - - He has made it easy (for him)

20 Thumma alssabeela yassarahu

21 Then He causes him to die, then assigns to him a grave,

21 Thumma amatahu faaqbarahu

22 Then when He pleases, He will raise him to life again.

22 Thumma itha shaa ansharahu

23 Nay; but he has not done what He bade him.

23 Kalla lamma yaqdi ma amarahu

24 Then let man look to his food,

24 Falyanthuri alinsanu ila taAAamihi

25 That We pour down the water, pouring (it) down in abundance,

25 Anna sababna almaa sabban

26 Then We cleave the earth, cleaving (it) asunder,

26 Thumma shaqaqna alarda shaqqan

27 Then We cause to grow therein the grain,

27 Faanbatna feeha habban

28 And grapes and clover,

28 WaAAinaban waqadban

29 And the olive and the palm,

29 Wazaytoonan wanakhlan

30 And thick gardens,

30 Wahadaiqa ghulban

31 And fruits and herbage

31 Wafakihatan waabban

32 A provision for you and for your cattle.

32 MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

33 But when the deafening cry comes,

33 Faitha jaati alssakhkhatu

34 The day on which a man shall fly from his brother,

34 Yawma yafirru almaro min akheehi

35 And his mother and his father,

35 Waommihi waabeehi

36 And his spouse and his son - -

36 Wasahibatihi wabaneehi

37 Every man of them shall on that day have an affair which will occupy him.

37 Likulli imriin minhum yawmaithin shanun yughneehi

38 (Many) faces on that day shall be bright,

38 Wujoohun yawmaithin musfiratun

39 Laughing, joyous.

39 Dahikatun mustabshiratun

40 And (many) faces on that day, on them shall be dust,

40 Wawujoohun yawmaithin AAalayha ghabaratun

41 Darkness shall cover them.

41 Tarhaquha qataratun

42 These are they who are unbelievers, the wicked.
