He Frowned ('Abasa)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ He frowned and turned away 1 when the blind came to him. 2 And what do you know, he may be of the pure! 3 or yet remember, and the Reminder profit him. 4 As for he who is sufficed 5 you eagerly attended to him -- 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 And he who comes to thee eagerly 8 and in awe of God 9 Him thou neglectest! 10 Indeed, this [Quran] is an admonition. 11 and whosoever wills, shall remember it. 12 [It is recorded] in honored sheets, 13 Exalted and holy, 14 [borne] by the hands of messengers 15 noble and pious. 16 Perish Man! How unthankful he is! 17 Of what did He create him? 18 Of a small seed; He created him, then He made him according to a measure, 19 Then maketh the way easy for him, 20 Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave; 21 Then, when He willed, He brought him out. (As during the night of Holy Prophet’s ascension, when all the Prophets gathered behind him in the Al Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem. Or when Allah will raise everyone on the Day of Resurrection.) 22 No indeed! Man has not accomplished His bidding. 23 Let the human being think about (how We produce) his food. 24 How We poured down water in torrents, 25 Then split the earth in clefts 26 and therein made the grains to grow 27 And Grapes and nutritious plants, 28 and olive trees and date palms 29 and dense orchards, 30 And fruits and herbage 31 (These are made so as to be) means of enjoyment for you and your cattle. 32 Then, when there comes As-Sakhkhah (the Day of Resurrection's second blowing of Trumpet), 33 on the Day when each man shall flee from his brother, 34 and his mother and his father; 35 and from his spouse and his children: 36 For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him. 37 [Some] faces, that Day, will be bright - 38 Laughing, rejoicing at good news (of Paradise). 39 but some faces will be covered with dust 40 Dust shall cover them 41 These will be the unbelievers, the wicked. 42
