☪️ Abasa (سُورَةُ عَبَسَ)

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِیمِ عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰۤ

The Prophet frowned and turned away

أَن جَاۤءَهُ ٱلۡأَعۡمَىٰ

Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

وَمَا یُدۡرِیكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ یَزَّكَّىٰۤ

But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

أَوۡ یَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰۤ

Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ

As for he who thinks himself without need,

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ

To him you give attention.

وَمَا عَلَیۡكَ أَلَّا یَزَّكَّىٰ

And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.

وَأَمَّا مَن جَاۤءَكَ یَسۡعَىٰ

But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

وَهُوَ یَخۡشَىٰ

While he fears [Allah],

فَأَنتَ عَنۡهُ تَلَهَّىٰ

From him you are distracted.

كَلَّاۤ إِنَّهَا تَذۡكِرَةࣱ

No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;

فَمَن شَاۤءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ

So whoever wills may remember it.

فِی صُحُفࣲ مُّكَرَّمَةࣲ

[It is recorded] in honored sheets,

مَّرۡفُوعَةࣲ مُّطَهَّرَةِۭ

Exalted and purified,

بِأَیۡدِی سَفَرَةࣲ

[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

كِرَامِۭ بَرَرَةࣲ

Noble and dutiful.

قُتِلَ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ مَاۤ أَكۡفَرَهُۥ

Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.

مِنۡ أَیِّ شَیۡءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ

From what substance did He create him?

مِن نُّطۡفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ

From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِیلَ یَسَّرَهُۥ

Then He eased the way for him;

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقۡبَرَهُۥ

Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَاۤءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

كَلَّا لَمَّا یَقۡضِ مَاۤ أَمَرَهُۥ

No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

فَلۡیَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦۤ

Then let mankind look at his food -

أَنَّا صَبَبۡنَا ٱلۡمَاۤءَ صَبࣰّا

How We poured down water in torrents,

ثُمَّ شَقَقۡنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ شَقࣰّا

Then We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts],

فَأَنۢبَتۡنَا فِیهَا حَبࣰّا

And caused to grow within it grain

وَعِنَبࣰا وَقَضۡبࣰا

And grapes and herbage

وَزَیۡتُونࣰا وَنَخۡلࣰا

And olive and palm trees

وَحَدَاۤىِٕقَ غُلۡبࣰا

And gardens of dense shrubbery

وَفَـٰكِهَةࣰ وَأَبࣰّا

And fruit and grass -

مَّتَـٰعࣰا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَـٰمِكُمۡ

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.

فَإِذَا جَاۤءَتِ ٱلصَّاۤخَّةُ

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

یَوۡمَ یَفِرُّ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مِنۡ أَخِیهِ

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِیهِ

And his mother and his father

وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِیهِ

And his wife and his children,

لِكُلِّ ٱمۡرِئࣲ مِّنۡهُمۡ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ شَأۡنࣱ یُغۡنِیهِ

For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

وُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذࣲ مُّسۡفِرَةࣱ

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

ضَاحِكَةࣱ مُّسۡتَبۡشِرَةࣱ

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

وَوُجُوهࣱ یَوۡمَىِٕذٍ عَلَیۡهَا غَبَرَةࣱ

And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

تَرۡهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ

Blackness will cover them.

أُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ ٱلۡكَفَرَةُ ٱلۡفَجَرَةُ

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
