# Translation Ayah
1 He frowned and turned away عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّى
2 when the blind man approached him, أَن جَاءهُ الْأَعْمَى
3 for how can you know that he might seek to purify himself, وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّى
4 or take heed and derive benefit from [Our] warning? أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَى
5 As for him who was indifferent, أَمَّا مَنِ اسْتَغْنَى
6 you eagerly attended to him -- فَأَنتَ لَهُ تَصَدَّى
7 though you are not to be blamed if he would not purify himself -- وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّى
8 but as for one who comes to you, eagerly وَأَمَّا مَن جَاءكَ يَسْعَى
9 and in awe of God وَهُوَ يَخْشَى
10 you pay him no heed. فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّى
11 Indeed, this [Quran] is an admonition. كَلَّا إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ
12 Let him who will, pay heed to it. فَمَن شَاء ذَكَرَهُ
13 It is set down on honoured pages, فِي صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ
14 exalted and purified, مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍ
15 by the hands of بِأَيْدِي سَفَرَةٍ
16 noble and virtuous scribes. كِرَامٍ بَرَرَةٍ
17 Woe to man! How ungrateful he is! قُتِلَ الْإِنسَانُ مَا أَكْفَرَهُ
18 Of what [stuff] has He created him? مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقَهُ
19 Out of a drop of sperm! He creates and proportions him, مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُ فَقَدَّرَهُ
20 He makes his path easy for him. ثُمَّ السَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُ
21 Then He causes him to die and be buried. ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُ فَأَقْبَرَهُ
22 Then when He pleases, He will bring him back to life. ثُمَّ إِذَا شَاء أَنشَرَهُ
23 Yet man declines to do His bidding. كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَا أَمَرَهُ
24 Let man reflect on the food he eats. فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ
25 We let the rain pour down in torrents أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا الْمَاء صَبًّا
26 and then We cleaved the earth asunder. ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا الْأَرْضَ شَقًّا
27 We make the grain grow out of it, فَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا
28 and grape vines and vegetables, وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا
29 and olive trees and date palms وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا
30 and burgeoning enclosed gardens وَحَدَائِقَ غُلْبًا
31 and fruits and fodder وَفَاكِهَةً وَأَبًّا
32 as provision for you and for your cattle to enjoy. مَّتَاعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ
33 But when the deafening blast is sounded, فَإِذَا جَاءتِ الصَّاخَّةُ
34 on that Day a man shall flee from his own brother, يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ الْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ
35 his mother, his father, وَأُمِّهِ وَأَبِيهِ
36 his wife and his sons: وَصَاحِبَتِهِ وَبَنِيهِ
37 on that Day every man among them will have enough concern of his own -- لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ
38 on that Day some faces will be beaming, وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ
39 laughing, and rejoicing, ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ
40 but some faces will be covered with dust وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ
41 and overcast with gloom: تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ
42 those will be ones who denied the truth and were immersed in iniquity. أُوْلَئِكَ هُمُ الْكَفَرَةُ الْفَجَرَةُ
