Surah Abasa سُورَةُ عَبَسَ

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ1

80:1The Prophet frowned and turned away

أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ2

80:2Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ3

80:3But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ4

80:4Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ5

80:5As for he who thinks himself without need,

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ6

80:6To him you give attention.

وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ7

80:7And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.

وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ8

80:8But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ9

80:9While he fears [Allah],

فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ10

80:10From him you are distracted.

كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌۭ11

80:11No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;

فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ12

80:12So whoever wills may remember it.

فِى صُحُفٍۢ مُّكَرَّمَةٍۢ13

80:13[It is recorded] in honored sheets,

مَّرْفُوعَةٍۢ مُّطَهَّرَةٍۭ14

80:14Exalted and purified,

بِأَيْدِى سَفَرَةٍۢ15

80:15[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

كِرَامٍۭ بَرَرَةٍۢ16

80:16Noble and dutiful.

قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ17

80:17Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.

مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ18

80:18From what substance did He create him?

مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ19

80:19From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ20

80:20Then He eased the way for him;

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ21

80:21Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ22

80:22Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ23

80:23No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ24

80:24Then let mankind look at his food -

أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا ٱلْمَآءَ صَبًّۭا25

80:25How We poured down water in torrents,

ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ شَقًّۭا26

80:26Then We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts],

فَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّۭا27

80:27And caused to grow within it grain

وَعِنَبًۭا وَقَضْبًۭا28

80:28And grapes and herbage

وَزَيْتُونًۭا وَنَخْلًۭا29

80:29And olive and palm trees

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلْبًۭا30

80:30And gardens of dense shrubbery

وَفَٰكِهَةًۭ وَأَبًّۭا31

80:31And fruit and grass -

مَّتَٰعًۭا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَٰمِكُمْ32

80:32[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ33

80:33But when there comes the Deafening Blast

يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ34

80:34On the Day a man will flee from his brother

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ35

80:35And his mother and his father

وَصَٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ36

80:36And his wife and his children,

لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍۢ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ شَأْنٌۭ يُغْنِيهِ37

80:37For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ مُّسْفِرَةٌۭ38

80:38[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

ضَاحِكَةٌۭ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌۭ39

80:39Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

وَوُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌۭ40

80:40And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ41

80:41Blackness will cover them.

أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ42

80:42Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
