عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ﴿١﴾

He frowned and turned away,

أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ ﴿٢﴾

Because came to him the blind man.

وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ ﴿٣﴾

But what would make you know that he might purify himself,

أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ ﴿٤﴾

Or be reminded so would benefit him the reminder?

أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ﴿٥﴾

As for (him) who considers himself free from need,

فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ ﴿٦﴾

So you to him give attention.

وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ ﴿٧﴾

And not upon you that not that not he purifies himself.

وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ ﴿٨﴾

But as for (he) who came to you striving,

وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ ﴿٩﴾

While he fears,

فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ ﴿١٠﴾

But you from him (are) distracted.

كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ ﴿١١﴾

Nay! Indeed, it (is) a reminder,

فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ ﴿١٢﴾

So whosoever wills may remember it.

فِى صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ ﴿١٣﴾

In sheets honored,

مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍۭ ﴿١٤﴾

Exalted, purified,

بِأَيْدِى سَفَرَةٍ ﴿١٥﴾

In (the) hands (of) scribes.

كِرَامٍۭ بَرَرَةٍ ﴿١٦﴾

Noble, dutiful.

قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ ﴿١٧﴾

Is destroyed [the] man, how ungrateful is he!

مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ ﴿١٨﴾

From what thing He created him?

مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ ﴿١٩﴾

From a semen-drop He created him, then He proportioned him,

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ ﴿٢٠﴾

Then the way, He made easy for him,

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ ﴿٢١﴾

Then He causes him to die and provides a grave for him,

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ ﴿٢٢﴾

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ ﴿٢٣﴾

Nay! Not he has accomplished what He commanded him.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ ﴿٢٤﴾

Then let look the man at his food,

أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا ٱلْمَآءَ صَبًّا ﴿٢٥﴾

That [We] [We] poured the water (in) abundance,

ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ شَقًّا ﴿٢٦﴾

Then We cleaved the earth splitting,

فَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا ﴿٢٧﴾

Then We caused to grow therein grain,

وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا ﴿٢٨﴾

And grapes and green fodder,

وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا ﴿٢٩﴾

And olive and date-palms,

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلْبًا ﴿٣٠﴾

And gardens (of) thick foliage,

وَفَـٰكِهَةً وَأَبًّا ﴿٣١﴾

And fruits and grass,

مَّتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ ﴿٣٢﴾

(As) a provision for you and for your cattle.

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ ﴿٣٣﴾

But when comes the Deafening Blast,

يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ ﴿٣٤﴾

(The) Day will flee a man from his brother,

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ ﴿٣٥﴾

And his mother and his father,

وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ ﴿٣٦﴾

And his wife and his children,

لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ ﴿٣٧﴾

For every man among them that Day (will be) a matter occupying him.

وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ ﴿٣٨﴾

Faces, that Day (will be) bright,

ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ ﴿٣٩﴾

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ ﴿٤٠﴾

And faces, that Day, upon them (will be) dust,

تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ ﴿٤١﴾

Will cover them darkness.

أُولَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ ﴿٤٢﴾

Those [they] (are) the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
