'Abasa He frowned

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ۝١

80:1 He frowned and turned away

أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ ۝٢

80:2 Because the blind man came unto him.

وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ ۝٣

80:3 What could inform thee but that he might grow (in grace)

أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ ۝٤

80:4 Or take heed and so the reminder might avail him?

أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ۝٥

80:5 As for him who thinketh himself independent,

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ ۝٦

80:6 Unto him thou payest regard.

وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ ۝٧

80:7 Yet it is not thy concern if he grow not (in grace).

وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ ۝٨

80:8 But as for him who cometh unto thee with earnest purpose

وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ ۝٩

80:9 And hath fear,

فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ ۝١٠

80:10 From him thou art distracted.

كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ ۝١١

80:11 Nay, but verily it is an Admonishment,

فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ ۝١٢

80:12 So let whosoever will pay heed to it,

فِى صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ ۝١٣

80:13 On honoured leaves

مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍۭ ۝١٤

80:14 Exalted, purified,

بِأَيْدِى سَفَرَةٍ ۝١٥

80:15 (Set down) by scribes

كِرَامٍۭ بَرَرَةٍ ۝١٦

80:16 Noble and righteous.

قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ ۝١٧

80:17 Man is (self-)destroyed: how ungrateful!

مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ ۝١٨

80:18 From what thing doth He create him?

مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ ۝١٩

80:19 From a drop of seed. He createth him and proportioneth him,

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ ۝٢٠

80:20 Then maketh the way easy for him,

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ ۝٢١

80:21 Then causeth him to die, and burieth him;

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ ۝٢٢

80:22 Then, when He will, He bringeth him again to life.

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ ۝٢٣

80:23 Nay, but (man) hath not done what He commanded him.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ ۝٢٤

80:24 Let man consider his food:

أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا ٱلْمَآءَ صَبًّا ۝٢٥

80:25 How We pour water in showers

ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ شَقًّا ۝٢٦

80:26 Then split the earth in clefts

فَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا ۝٢٧

80:27 And cause the grain to grow therein

وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا ۝٢٨

80:28 And grapes and green fodder

وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا ۝٢٩

80:29 And olive-trees and palm-trees

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلْبًا ۝٣٠

80:30 And garden-closes of thick foliage

وَفَـٰكِهَةً وَأَبًّا ۝٣١

80:31 And fruits and grasses:

مَّتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ ۝٣٢

80:32 Provision for you and your cattle.

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ ۝٣٣

80:33 But when the Shout cometh

يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ ۝٣٤

80:34 On the day when a man fleeth from his brother

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ ۝٣٥

80:35 And his mother and his father

وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ ۝٣٦

80:36 And his wife and his children,

لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ ۝٣٧

80:37 Every man that day will have concern enough to make him heedless (of others).

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ ۝٣٨

80:38 On that day faces will be bright as dawn,

ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ ۝٣٩

80:39 Laughing, rejoicing at good news;

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ ۝٤٠

80:40 And other faces, on that day, with dust upon them,

تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ ۝٤١

80:41 Veiled in darkness,

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ ۝٤٢

80:42 Those are the disbelievers, the wicked.
