Abasa ("He Frowned")

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Compassionate.

(80:1) He frowned and turned away.

(80:2) When the blind one came to him.

(80:3) What makes you know, perhaps he is seeking to purify?

(80:4) Or to remember, so the remembrance will benefit him?

(80:5) As for the one who was conceited;

(80:6) To him you attended.

(80:7) Why does it concern you that he does not want to purify?

(80:8) As for the one who came to you seeking.

(80:9) While he was fearful.

(80:10) You were too preoccupied for him.

(80:11) No, this is but a reminder.

(80:12) For whoever wills to remember.

(80:13) In records which are honorable.

(80:14) Exalted and pure.

(80:15) By the hands of scribes.

(80:16) Honorable and righteous.

(80:17) Woe to human being; how unappreciative!

(80:18) From what did He create him?

(80:19) From sperm He created him and designed him.

(80:20) Then the path He made easy for him.

(80:21) Then He made him die and buried him.

(80:22) Then if He wishes He reincarnates him.

(80:23) Alas, he did not fulfill what He commanded him.

(80:24) Let the human being look to his provisions.

(80:25) We have poured the water abundantly.

(80:26) Then We cracked the land with cracks.

(80:27) We made grow in it seeds.

(80:28) Grapes and pasture.

(80:29) Olives and palm trees.

(80:30) Gardens in variety.

(80:31) satisfactions and dopes.

(80:32) An enjoyment for you and your livestock.

(80:33) So when the screaming shout comes.

(80:34) The day when a person will run from his brother.

(80:35) His mother and father.

(80:36 His mate and children.

(80:37) For every person on that day is a matter that concerns him.

(80:38) On that day are faces which are openly displayed.

(80:39) Laughing and seeking good news.

(80:40) Faces on that day with dust on them.

(80:41) Being burdened by remorse.

(80:42) Those are the ingrates, the wicked.
