Surah Abasa

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

1. عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ

   The Prophet frowned and turned away

   80:1
2. أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ

   Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].

   80:2
3. وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ

   But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

   80:3
4. أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ

   Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

   80:4
5. أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ

   As for he who thinks himself without need,

   80:5
6. فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ

   To him you give attention.

   80:6
7. وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ

   And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.

   80:7
8. وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ

   But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

   80:8
9. وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ

   While he fears [Allah],

   80:9
10. فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ

    From him you are distracted.

    80:10
11. كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةࣱ

    No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;

    80:11
12. فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ

    So whoever wills may remember it.

    80:12
13. فِى صُحُفࣲ مُّكَرَّمَةࣲ

    [It is recorded] in honored sheets,

    80:13

    Exalted and purified,

    80:14

    [Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

    80:15

    Noble and dutiful.

    80:16
17. قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ

    Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.

    80:17
18. مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ

    From what substance did He create him?

    80:18
19. مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ

    From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;

    80:19
20. ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ

    Then He eased the way for him;

    80:20
21. ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ

    Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.

    80:21
22. ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ

    Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

    80:22
23. كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ

    No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

    80:23
