He Frowned ('Abasa)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ He frowned and turned away 1 Because the blind man came unto him. 2 And what should teach thee? Perchance he would cleanse him, 3 Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him? 4 For him who does not care, 5 Unto him thou payest regard. 6 Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding). 7 And as for him who cometh unto thee running, 8 and in awe of God 9 you pay no heed to him. 10 No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder; 11 So whosoever willeth - let him be admonished therewlth. 12 upon pages high-honoured, 13 uplifted, purified, 14 (Written) by the hands of scribes- 15 Noble, virtuous. 16 Perish Man! How unthankful he is! 17 Of what thing did He create him? 18 From a single sperm He created, then proportioned him, 19 Then (as for) the way-- He has made it easy (for him) 20 Then He causes him to die, and puts him in his grave; 21 Then when He pleases, He will raise him to life again. 22 Nay, but [man] has never yet fulfilled what He has enjoined upon him! 23 Let the human reflect on the food he eats, 24 How We pour water in showers 25 and then We cleave the earth [with new growth,] cleaving it asunder, 26 and therein made the grains to grow 27 And grapes and herbage, 28 And olives and date palms, 29 And garden-closes of thick foliage 30 And fruits and grass, 31 (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle. 32 But when the deafening blast is sounded, 33 upon the day when a man shall flee from his brother, 34 mother, father, 35 and his consort and his children; 36 Each man will have enough cares that day. 37 on that Day some faces will be beaming, 38 Laughing, rejoicing. 39 And many a face will be covered with dust on that day. 40 and covered by darkness. 41 those will be ones who denied the truth and were immersed in iniquity. 42
