'Abasa

AAabasa watawalla

The Prophet frowned and turned away

An jaahu alaAAma

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

Wama yudreeka laAAallahu yazzakka

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

Aw yaththakkaru fatanfaAAahu alththikra

Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him

Amma mani istaghna

As for he who thinks himself without need

Faanta lahu tasadda

To him you give attention

Wama AAalayka alla yazzakka

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

Waamma man jaaka yasAAa

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

Wahuwa yakhsha

While he fears [Allah]

Faanta AAanhu talahha

From him you are distracted

Kalla innaha tathkiratun

No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder

Faman shaa thakarahu

So whoever wills may remember it

Fee suhufin mukarramatin

[It is recorded] in honored sheets

MarfooAAatin mutahharatin

Exalted and purified

Biaydee safaratin

[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels

Kiramin bararatin

Noble and dutiful

Qutila alinsanu ma akfarahu

Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he

Min ayyi shayin khalaqahu

From what substance did He create him

Min nutfatin khalaqahu faqaddarahu

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

Thumma alssabeela yassarahu

Then He eased the way for him

Thumma amatahu faaqbarahu

Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him

Thumma itha shaa ansharahu

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him

Kalla lamma yaqdi ma amarahu

No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him

Falyanthuri alinsanu ila taAAamihi

Then let mankind look at his food

Anna sababna almaa sabban

How We poured down water in torrents

Thumma shaqaqna alarda shaqqan

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

Faanbatna feeha habban

And caused to grow within it grain

WaAAinaban waqadban

And grapes and herbage

Wazaytoonan wanakhlan

And olive and palm trees

Wahadaiqa ghulban

And gardens of dense shrubbery

Wafakihatan waabban

And fruit and grass

MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock

Faitha jaati alssakhkhatu

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

Yawma yafirru almaro min akheehi

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

Waommihi waabeehi

And his mother and his father

Wasahibatihi wabaneehi

And his wife and his children

Likulli imriin minhum yawmaithin shanun yughneehi

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

Wujoohun yawmaithin musfiratun

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright

Dahikatun mustabshiratun

Laughing, rejoicing at good news

Wawujoohun yawmaithin AAalayha ghabaratun

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

Tarhaquha qataratun

Blackness will cover them

Olaika humu alkafaratu alfajaratu

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones
