In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. (The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم) frowned and turned away.
AAabasa watawalla
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم عبس وتولى
Chapter 80, 42 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. (The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم) frowned and turned away.
AAabasa watawalla
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم عبس وتولى
Because there came to him the blind man (i.e. 'Abdullah bin Umm-Maktum, who came to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم while he was preaching to one or some of the Quraish chiefs).
An jaahu alaAAma
أَن جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ
أن جاءه الأعمى
And how can you know that he might become pure (from sins)?
Wama yudreeka laAAallahu yazzakka
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّىٰ
وما يدريك لعله يزكى
Or he might receive admonition, and the admonition might profit him?
Aw yaththakkaru fatanfaAAahu alththikra
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ
أو يذكر فتنفعه الذكرى
As for him who thinks himself self-sufficient,
Amma mani istaghna
أَمَّا مَنِ اسْتَغْنَىٰ
أما من استغنى
To him you attend;
Faanta lahu tasadda
فَأَنتَ لَهُ تَصَدَّىٰ
فأنت له تصدى
What does it matter to you if he will not become pure (from disbelief: you are only a Messenger, your duty is to convey the Message of Allah).
Wama AAalayka alla yazzakka
وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ
وما عليك ألا يزكى
But as to him who came to you running,
Waamma man jaaka yasAAa
وَأَمَّا مَن جَاءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ
وأما من جاءك يسعى
And is afraid (of Allah and His punishment).
Wahuwa yakhsha
وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ
وهو يخشى
Of him you are neglectful and divert your attention to another,
Faanta AAanhu talahha
فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ
فأنت عنه تلهى
Nay, (do not do like this); indeed it (this Qur'an) is an admonition.
Kalla innaha tathkiratun
كَلَّا إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ
كلا إنها تذكرة
So whoever wills, let him pay attention to it.
Faman shaa thakarahu
فَمَن شَاءَ ذَكَرَهُ
فمن شاء ذكره
(It is) in Records held (greatly) in honour (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz),
Fee suhufin mukarramatin
فِي صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ
في صحف مكرمة
Exalted (in dignity), purified,
MarfooAAatin mutahharatin
مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍ
مرفوعة مطهرة
In the hands of scribes (angels).
Biaydee safaratin
بِأَيْدِي سَفَرَةٍ
بأيدي سفرة
Honourable and obedient.
Kiramin bararatin
كِرَامٍ بَرَرَةٍ
كرام بررة
Be cursed (the disbelieving) man! How ungrateful he is!
Qutila alinsanu ma akfarahu
قُتِلَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا أَكْفَرَهُ
قتل الإنسان ما أكفره
From what thing did He create him?
Min ayyi shayin khalaqahu
مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقَهُ
من أي شيء خلقه
From Nutfah (male and female semen drops) He created him and then set him in due proportion.
Min nutfatin khalaqahu faqaddarahu
مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَهُ
من نطفة خلقه فقدره
Then He makes the Path easy for him.
Thumma alssabeela yassarahu
ثُمَّ السَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُ
ثم السبيل يسره
Then He causes him to die and puts him in his grave.
Thumma amatahu faaqbarahu
ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُ فَأَقْبَرَهُ
ثم أماته فأقبره
Then when it is His Will, He will resurrect him (again).
Thumma itha shaa ansharahu
ثُمَّ إِذَا شَاءَ أَنشَرَهُ
ثم إذا شاء أنشره
Nay, but (man) has not done what He commanded him.
Kalla lamma yaqdi ma amarahu
كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَا أَمَرَهُ
كلا لما يقض ما أمره
Then let man look at his food:
Falyanthuri alinsanu ila taAAamihi
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِ
فلينظر الإنسان إلى طعامه
We pour forth water in abundance.
Anna sababna almaa sabban
أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا الْمَاءَ صَبًّا
أنا صببنا الماء صبا
And We split the earth in clefts.
Thumma shaqaqna alarda shaqqan
ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا الْأَرْضَ شَقًّا
ثم شققنا الأرض شقا
And We cause therein the grain to grow,
Faanbatna feeha habban
فَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا
فأنبتنا فيها حبا
And grapes and clover plants (i.e. green fodder for the cattle),
WaAAinaban waqadban
وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا
وعنبا وقضبا
And olives and date-palms,
Wazaytoonan wanakhlan
وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا
وزيتونا ونخلا
And gardens dense with many trees,
Wahadaiqa ghulban
وَحَدَائِقَ غُلْبًا
وحدائق غلبا
And fruits and herbage
Wafakihatan waabban
وَفَاكِهَةً وَأَبًّا
وفاكهة وأبا
(To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle.
MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum
مَّتَاعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ
متاعا لكم ولأنعامكم
Then when there comes As-Sakhkhah (the second blowing of the Trumpet on the Day of Resurrection)
Faitha jaati alssakhkhatu
فَإِذَا جَاءَتِ الصَّاخَّةُ
فإذا جاءت الصاخة
That Day shall a man flee from his brother,
Yawma yafirru almaro min akheehi
يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ الْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ
يوم يفر المرء من أخيه
And from his mother and his father,
Waommihi waabeehi
وَأُمِّهِ وَأَبِيهِ
وأمه وأبيه
And from his wife and his children.
Wasahibatihi wabaneehi
وَصَاحِبَتِهِ وَبَنِيهِ
وصاحبته وبنيه
Everyman that Day will have enough to make him careless of others.
Likulli imriin minhum yawmaithin shanun yughneehi
لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ
لكل امرئ منهم يومئذ شأن يغنيه
Some faces that Day will be bright (true believers of Islamic Monotheism),
Wujoohun yawmaithin musfiratun
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ
وجوه يومئذ مسفرة
Laughing, rejoicing at good news (of Paradise).
Dahikatun mustabshiratun
ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ
ضاحكة مستبشرة
And other faces, that Day, will be dust-stained.
Wawujoohun yawmaithin AAalayha ghabaratun
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ
ووجوه يومئذ عليها غبرة
Darkness will cover them.
Tarhaquha qataratun
تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ
ترهقها قترة
Such will be the Kafarah (disbelievers in Allah, in His Oneness, and in His Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم, etc.), the Fajarah (wicked evil doers).
Olaika humu alkafaratu alfajaratu
أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْكَفَرَةُ الْفَجَرَةُ
أولئك هم الكفرة الفجرة
