আবাসা (সে বিরক্তি প্রকাশ করলো)

1 He frowned and turned (his) back,

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. He frowned and turned away

2 Because there came to him the blind man.

2 Because the blind man came unto him.

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

3 What could inform thee but that he might grow (in grace)

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

4 Or take heed and so the reminder might avail him ?

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

5 As for him who thinketh himself independent,

6 To him do you address yourself.

6 Unto him thou payest regard.

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

7 Yet it is not thy concern if he grow not (in grace).

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

8 But as for him who cometh unto thee with earnest purpose

9 And he fears,

9 And hath fear,

10 From him will you divert yourself.

10 From him thou art distracted.

11 Nay! surely it is an admonishment.

11 Nay, but verily it is an Admonishment,

12 So let him who pleases mind it.

12 So let whosoever will pay heed to it,

13 In honored books,

13 On honoured leaves

14 Exalted, purified,

14 Exalted, purified,

15 In the hands of scribes

15 (Set down) by scribes

16 Noble, virtuous.

16 Noble and righteous.

17 Cursed be man! how ungrateful is he!

17 Man is (self - )destroyed: how ungrateful!

18 Of what thing did He create him?

18 From what thing doth He create him ?

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

19 From a drop of seed. He createth him and proportioneth him,

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

20 Then maketh the way easy for him,

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

21 Then causeth him to die, and burieth him;

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

22 Then, when He will, He bringeth him again to life.

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

23 Nay, but (man) hath not done what He commanded him.

24 Then let man look to his food,

24 Let man consider his food:

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

25 How We pour water in showers

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

26 Then split the earth in clefts

27 Then We cause to grow therein the grain,

27 And cause the grain to grow therein

28 And grapes and clover,

28 And grapes and green fodder

29 And the olive and the palm,

29 And olive - trees and palm - trees

30 And thick gardens,

30 And garden - closes of thick foliage

31 And fruits and herbage

31 And fruits and grasses:

32 A provision for you and for your cattle.

32 Provision for you and your cattle.

33 But when the deafening cry comes,

33 But when the Shout cometh

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

34 On the day when a man fleeth from his brother

35 And his mother and his father,

35 And his mother and his father

36 And his spouse and his son - -

36 And his wife and his children,

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

37 Every man that day will have concern enough to make him heedless (of others).

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

38 On that day faces will be bright as dawn,

39 Laughing, joyous.

39 Laughing, rejoicing at good news;

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

40 And other faces, on that day, with dust upon them,

41 Darkness shall cover them.

41 Veiled in darkness,

42 These are they who are unbelievers, the wicked.

42 Those are the disbelievers, the wicked.
