(The Prophet) frowned\n And turned away,\n2. Because there came to him\n The blind man (interrupting).\n3. Wama yudreeka laAAallahu yazzakka\n3. But what could tell thee\n But that perchance he might\n Grow (in spiritual understanding)?\u2014\n4. Aw yaththakkaru fatanfaAAahu alththikra\n4. Or that he might receive\n Admonition, and the teaching\n Might profit him?\n5. As to one who regards\n Himself as self-sufficient,\n6. To him dost thou attend;\n7. Wama AAalayka alla yazzakka\n7. Though it is no blame\n To thee if he grow not\n (In spiritual understanding).\n8. But as to him who came\n To thee striving earnestly,\n9. And with fear\n (In his heart),\n10. Of him wast thou unmindful.\n11. By no means\n (Should it be so)!\n For it is indeed\n A Message of instruction:\n12. Therefore let whoso will,\n Keep it in remembrance.\n13. (It is) in Books\n Held (greatly) in honour,\n14. Exalted (in dignity),\n Kept pure and holy,\n15. (Written) by the hands\n Of scribes\u2014\n16. Honourable and\n Pious and Just.\n17. Qutila al-insanu ma akfarahu\n17. Woe to man!\n What hath made him\n Reject God:\n18. Min ayyi shay-in khalaqahu\n18. From what stuff\n Hath He created him?\n19. Min nutfatin khalaqahu faqaddarahu\n19. From a sperm-drop:\n He hath created him, and then\n Mouldeth him in due proportions;\n20. Thumma alssabeela yassarahu\n20. Then doth He make\n His path smooth for him;\n21. Then He causeth him to die,\n And putteth him in his Grave;\n22. Thumma itha shaa ansharahu\n22. Then, when it is\n His Will, He will\n Raise him up (again).\n23. Kalla lamma yaqdi ma amarahu\n23. By no means hath he\n Fulfilled what God\n Hath commanded him.\n24. Falyanthuri al-insanu ila taAAamihi\n24. Then let man look\n At his Food,\n (And how We provide it):\n25. For that We pour forth\n Water in abundance,\n26. Thumma shaqaqna al-arda shaqqan\n26. And We split the earth\n In fragments,\n27. And produce therein Corn,\n28. And Grapes and nutritious Plants,\n29. And Olives and Dates,\n30. And enclosed Gardens,\n Dense with lofty trees,\n31. And Fruits and Fodder,\u2014\n32. MataAAan lakum wali-anAAamikum\n32. For use and convenience\n To you and your cattle.\n33. Fa-itha jaati alssakhkhatu\n33. At length, when there\n Comes the Deafening Noise,\u2014\n34. Yawma yafirru almaro min akheehi\n34. That Day shall a man\n Flee from his own brother,\n35. And from his mother\n And his father,\n36. And from his wife\n And his children.\n37. Likulli imri-in minhum yawma-ithin sha/nun yughneehi\n37. Each one of them,\n That Day, will have\n Enough concern (of his own)\n To make him indifferent\n To the others,\n38. Wujoohun yawma-ithin musfiratun\n38. Some Faces that Day\n Will be beaming,\n39. Laughing, rejoicing.\n40. Wawujoohun yawma-ithin AAalayha ghabaratun\n40. And other faces that Day\n Will be dust-stained;\n41. Blackness will cover them:\n42. Ola-ika humu alkafaratu alfajaratu\n42. Such will be\n The Rejecters of God,\n The Doers of Iniquity.","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra LXXX.: \u2019Abasa, or He Frowned.:...","type":"page"}
