አንቀጽ: 1

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ

He frowned and turned away,

አንቀጽ: 2

أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلۡأَعۡمَىٰ

when the blind man came to him^[1].

[1] Abdullah ibn Um Maktūm, an early Muslim who was blind, came to the Prophet (ﷺ) seeking to learn, while the Prophet (ﷺ) was in the middle of a discussion with a leading pagan of Makkah, calling him to Islam. Abdullah was so impatient that he interrupted their discussion. The Prophet (ﷺ) frowned and turned his attention to that pagan. So this Makkan surah was revealed, telling the Prophet (ﷺ) that the faithful blind man was more worthy of attention than that disbeliever.

አንቀጽ: 3

وَمَا يُدۡرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ

How would you know? Perhaps he might be purified^[2],

[2] Through the knowledge he learns from you.

አንቀጽ: 4

أَوۡ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰٓ

or he might take heed and benefit from the reminder?

አንቀጽ: 5

أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسۡتَغۡنَىٰ

But he who was indifferent^[3],

[3] Towards faith. Here it is referring to that influential pagan of the Quraysh whom the Prophet (ﷺ) had hoped to embrace Islam.

አንቀጽ: 6

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ

you give him your full attention,

አንቀጽ: 7

وَمَا عَلَيۡكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ

although you are not to be blamed if he does not purify himself^[4].

[4] The Prophets are only responsible to convey the message, not for people’s guidance.

አንቀጽ: 8

وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسۡعَىٰ

But as for the one who came to you striving [for purification],

አንቀጽ: 9

وَهُوَ يَخۡشَىٰ

and he fears Allah,

አንቀጽ: 10

فَأَنتَ عَنۡهُ تَلَهَّىٰ

you let yourself be distracted from him.

አንቀጽ: 11

كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذۡكِرَةٞ

No indeed; this is a reminder –

አንቀጽ: 12

فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ

so whoever wills may give heed to it –

አንቀጽ: 13

فِي صُحُفٖ مُّكَرَّمَةٖ

on venerable pages,

አንቀጽ: 14

مَّرۡفُوعَةٖ مُّطَهَّرَةِۭ

exalted and purified,

አንቀጽ: 15

بِأَيۡدِي سَفَرَةٖ

honorable and obedient.

አንቀጽ: 17

قُتِلَ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مَآ أَكۡفَرَهُۥ

Woe to man; how ungrateful he is^[5]!

[5] i.e., the disbelievers.

አንቀጽ: 18

مِنۡ أَيِّ شَيۡءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ

From what did He create him?

አንቀጽ: 19

مِن نُّطۡفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ

He created him from a drop of semen and proportioned him^[6],

[6] His creation, provisions, life span, etc.

አንቀጽ: 20

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ

then He made the way easy for him^[7];

[7] i.e., the way out of his mothers’ wombs (his birth), or the way to guidance.

አንቀጽ: 21

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقۡبَرَهُۥ

then He caused him to die and be buried;

አንቀጽ: 22

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ

then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

አንቀጽ: 23

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقۡضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ

Yet he has not fulfilled what He commanded him.

አንቀጽ: 24

فَلۡيَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ

Let man consider the food he eats:

አንቀጽ: 25

أَنَّا صَبَبۡنَا ٱلۡمَآءَ صَبّٗا

How We pour down rainwater in torrents,

አንቀጽ: 26

ثُمَّ شَقَقۡنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ شَقّٗا

and cause the soil to split open [for sprouts],

አንቀጽ: 27

فَأَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا حَبّٗا

and cause grains to grow in it,

አንቀጽ: 28

وَعِنَبٗا وَقَضۡبٗا

as well as grapes and fodder,

አንቀጽ: 29

وَزَيۡتُونٗا وَنَخۡلٗا

and olive trees and date palms,

አንቀጽ: 30

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلۡبٗا

and dense orchards,

አንቀጽ: 31

وَفَٰكِهَةٗ وَأَبّٗا

and fruits and grass,

አንቀጽ: 32

مَّتَٰعٗا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَٰمِكُمۡ

as provision for you and your livestock.

አንቀጽ: 33

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ

But when the Deafening Blast^[8] comes,

[8] The piercing Blast; the second Blast for resurrection.

አንቀጽ: 34

يَوۡمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مِنۡ أَخِيهِ

on that Day everyone will flee from his brother,

አንቀጽ: 35

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ

and from his mother and father,

አንቀጽ: 36

وَصَٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ

and from his wife and children.

አንቀጽ: 37

لِكُلِّ ٱمۡرِيٕٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ شَأۡنٞ يُغۡنِيهِ

On that day, everyone will have enough concern of his own^[9].

[9] Thus forgetting all others.

አንቀጽ: 38

وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ مُّسۡفِرَةٞ

On that Day, some faces will be bright,

አንቀጽ: 39

ضَاحِكَةٞ مُّسۡتَبۡشِرَةٞ

cheerful and rejoicing;

አንቀጽ: 40

وَوُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٍ عَلَيۡهَا غَبَرَةٞ

while other faces will be dust-stained,

አንቀጽ: 41

تَرۡهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ

covered in darkness.

አንቀጽ: 42

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡكَفَرَةُ ٱلۡفَجَرَةُ

Such are the disbelievers, the wicked.
