# Translation Ayah
1 (The Prophet) frowned and turned away, عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّى
2 Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting). أَن جَاءهُ الْأَعْمَى
3 But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?- وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّى
4 Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him? أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَى
5 As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient, أَمَّا مَنِ اسْتَغْنَى
6 To him dost thou attend; فَأَنتَ لَهُ تَصَدَّى
7 Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding). وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّى
8 But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly, وَأَمَّا مَن جَاءكَ يَسْعَى
9 And with fear (in his heart), وَهُوَ يَخْشَى
10 Of him wast thou unmindful. فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّى
11 By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction: كَلَّا إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ
12 Therefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance. فَمَن شَاء ذَكَرَهُ
13 (It is) in Books held (greatly) in honour, فِي صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ
14 Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy, مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍ
15 (Written) by the hands of scribes- بِأَيْدِي سَفَرَةٍ
16 Honourable and Pious and Just. كِرَامٍ بَرَرَةٍ
17 Woe to man! What hath made him reject Allah; قُتِلَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا أَكْفَرَهُ
18 From what stuff hath He created him? مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقَهُ
19 From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions; مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَهُ
20 Then doth He make His path smooth for him; ثُمَّ السَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُ
21 Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave; ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُ فَأَقْبَرَهُ
22 Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again). ثُمَّ إِذَا شَاء أَنشَرَهُ
23 By no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him. كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَا أَمَرَهُ
24 Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it): فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ
25 For that We pour forth water in abundance, أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا الْمَاء صَبًّا
26 And We split the earth in fragments, ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا الْأَرْضَ شَقًّا
27 And produce therein corn, فَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا
28 And Grapes and nutritious plants, وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا
29 And Olives and Dates, وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا
30 And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees, وَحَدَائِقَ غُلْبًا
31 And fruits and fodder,- وَفَاكِهَةً وَأَبًّا
32 For use and convenience to you and your cattle. مَّتَاعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ
33 At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise,- فَإِذَا جَاءتِ الصَّاخَّةُ
34 That Day shall a man flee from his own brother, يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ الْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ
35 And from his mother and his father, وَأُمِّهِ وَأَبِيهِ
36 And from his wife and his children. وَصَاحِبَتِهِ وَبَنِيهِ
37 Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others. لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ
38 Some faces that Day will be beaming, وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ
39 Laughing, rejoicing. ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ
40 And other faces that Day will be dust-stained, وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ
41 Blackness will cover them: تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ
42 Such will be the Rejecters of Allah, the doers of iniquity. أُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ الْكَفَرَةُ الْفَجَرَةُ
