80 - He Frowned |
|
|
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. |
|
|
1 | (The Prophet) frowned and turned away, |
|
2 | Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting). |
|
3 | But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow in purity?- |
|
4 | Or that he might receive admonition, and the reminder might profit him? |
|
5 | As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient, |
|
6 | To him dost thou attend; |
|
7 | Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not in purity. |
|
8 | But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly, |
|
9 | And with fear (in his heart), |
|
10 | Of him wast thou unmindful. |
|
11 | By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of remembrance: |
|
12 | Therefore let whose will, keep it in remembrance. |
|
13 | (It is) in Books held (greatly) in honor, |
|
14 | Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy, |
|
15 | (Written) by the hands of scribes- |
|
16 | Honorable and Pious and Just. |
|
17 | Woe to man! What hath made him reject Allah. |
|
18 | From what stuff hath He created him? |
|
19 | From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions; |
|
20 | Then doth He make His path smooth for him; |
|
21 | Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave; |
|
22 | Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again). |
|
23 | By no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him. |
|
24 | Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it): |
|
25 | For that We pour forth water in abundance, |
|
26 | And We split the earth in fragments, |
|
27 | And produce therein grain, |
|
28 | And Grapes and fresh vegetation, |
|
29 | And Olives and Dates, |
|
30 | And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees, |
|
31 | And fruits and fodder,- |
|
32 | A provision for you and your cattle. |
|
33 | At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise,- |
|
34 | That Day shall a man flee from his own brother, |
|
35 | And from his mother and his father, |
|
36 | And from his wife and his children. |
|
37 | Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others. |
|
38 | Some faces that Day will be beaming, |
|
39 | Laughing, rejoicing. |
|
40 | And other faces that Day will be dust-stained, |
|
41 | Darkness will cover them: |
|
42 | Such will be the Rejecters of Allah, the Doers of Iniquity. |
