He Frowned ('Abasa)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ (The Prophet) frowned and turned away, 1 Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting). 2 for how can you know that he might seek to purify himself, 3 or take heed and derive benefit from [Our] warning? 4 For him who does not care, 5 To him do you address yourself. 6 What does it matter to you if he will not become pure (from disbelief, you are only a Messenger, your duty is to convey the Message of Allah). 7 But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge] 8 and fearfully, 9 From him will you divert yourself. 10 No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder; 11 and whoso wills, shall remember it 12 In honored books, 13 Exalted and purified, 14 In the hands of scribes 15 Honourable and obedient. 16 Accursed is man. How ungrateful is he! 17 From what has God created him? 18 From Nutfah (male and female semen drops) He created him, and then set him in due proportion; 19 Then eased the way for him. 20 Then He caused him to die and made him to be buried. 21 then, when He wills, He raises him. 22 But no. He has not fulfilled what was enjoined on him. 23 Let man consider his food: 24 That We watered it in abundance. 25 Then We cracked the earth open under pressure of germination 26 then caused the grain to grow out of it, 27 And grapes and vegetables 28 and olive trees and date-palms, 29 and dense orchards, 30 And fruits and fodder,- 31 [As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock. 32 And when the Blast shall sound, 33 on the Day when each man shall flee from his brother, 34 And his mother and his father 35 And his wife and his sons; 36 every man that day shall have business to suffice him. 37 On that day faces will be bright as dawn, 38 laughing and joyous 39 whereas some faces will be covered with dust 40 with darkness overspread: 41 These will be the faces of the sinful disbelievers. 42
