80 Frowned -'Abasa
In the Name of Allah, the
Merciful, the Most Merciful
[80.1] He frowned and turned away
[80.2] when the blind came to him.
[80.3] And what could let you know? Perhaps he (comes to
hear you) to be purified.
[80.4] (He might) remember, and the Reminder might
profit him.
[80.5] As for he who is sufficed
[80.6] you attended to him,
[80.7] although it is not for you to be concerned if he
remained unpurified.
[80.8] And to him who came to you eagerly
[80.9] and fearfully,
[80.10] of him you were unmindful.
[80.11] No indeed, this is a Reminder;
[80.12] and whosoever wills, shall remember it.
[80.13] upon highly honored pages,
[80.14] exalted, purified,
[80.15] by the hands of scribes
[80.16] noble and pious.
[80.17] Perish the human! How unthankful he is!
[80.18] From what did He create him?
[80.19] From a (sperm) drop He created him and then
determined him,
[80.20] then eased his path for him,
[80.21] then causes him to die and buries him,
[80.22] then, He will raise him when He wills.
[80.23] Indeed, he has not fulfilled that which He has
ordered him.
[80.24] Let the human reflect on the food he eats,
[80.25] how We pour down rain in abundance,
[80.26] and split the earth, splitting,
[80.27] how We made the grain to grow,
[80.28] grapes, and fresh fodder,
[80.29] and the olive, and the palm,
[80.30] the densely tree'd gardens,
[80.31] and fruit and pastures,
[80.32] for you and for your herds to delight in.
[80.33] But, when the Blast comes,
[80.34] on that Day each person will flee from his
brother,
[80.35] his mother and his father,
[80.36] his wife and his children.
[80.37] Everyone on that Day will have affairs to keep
him occupied.
[80.38] Some faces will shine,
[80.39] laughing and joyful,
[80.40] whereas some faces will be covered with dust
[80.41] and veiled with darkness.
[80.42] Those, they are the unbelievers, the immoral.
