আবাসা (সে বিরক্তি প্রকাশ করলো)

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

1 (The Prophet) frowned and turned away,

2 Because the blind man came unto him.

2 Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting).

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

3 But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)? -

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

4 Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him?

5 As for him who thinketh himself independent,

5 As to one who regards Himself as self - sufficient,

6 Unto him thou payest regard.

6 To him dost thou attend;

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

7 Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding).

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

8 But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly,

9 And hath fear,

9 And with fear (in his heart),

10 From him thou art distracted.

10 Of him wast thou unmindful.

11 Nay, but verily it is an Admonishment,

11 By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction:

12 So let whosoever will pay heed to it,

12 Therefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance.

13 On honoured leaves

13 (It is) in Books held (greatly) in honour,

14 Exalted, purified,

14 Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy,

15 (Set down) by scribes

15 (Written) by the hands of scribes -

16 Noble and righteous.

16 Honourable and Pious and Just.

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

17 Woe to man! What hath made him reject Allah;

18 From what thing doth He create him ?

18 From what stuff hath He created him?

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

19 From a sperm - drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions;

20 Then maketh the way easy for him,

20 Then doth He make His path smooth for him;

21 Then causeth him to die, and burieth him;

21 Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave;

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

22 Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again).

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

23 By no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him.

24 Let man consider his food:

24 Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it):

25 How We pour water in showers

25 For that We pour forth water in abundance,

26 Then split the earth in clefts

26 And We split the earth in fragments,

27 And cause the grain to grow therein

27 And produce therein corn,

28 And grapes and green fodder

28 And Grapes and nutritious plants,

29 And olive - trees and palm - trees

29 And Olives and Dates,

30 And garden - closes of thick foliage

30 And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees,

31 And fruits and grasses:

31 And fruits and fodder, -

32 Provision for you and your cattle.

32 For use and convenience to you and your cattle.

33 But when the Shout cometh

33 At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise, -

34 On the day when a man fleeth from his brother

34 That Day shall a man flee from his own brother,

35 And his mother and his father

35 And from his mother and his father,

36 And his wife and his children,

36 And from his wife and his children.

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

37 Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others.

38 On that day faces will be bright as dawn,

38 Some faces that Day will be beaming,

39 Laughing, rejoicing at good news;

39 Laughing, rejoicing.

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

40 And other faces that Day will be dust - stained,

41 Veiled in darkness,

41 Blackness will cover them:

42 Those are the disbelievers, the wicked.

42 Such will be the Rejecters of Allah, the doers of iniquity.
