| | Maulana Muhammad Ali rendition of Surah He Frowned(`Abasa)

| 80:1 | | He frowned and turned away |
| 80:2 | | Because the blind man came to him |
| 80:3 | | And what would make thee know that he might purify himself |
| 80:4 | | Or be mindful, so the Reminder should profit him |
| 80:5 | | As for him who considers himself free from nee |
| 80:6 | | To him thou dost attend |
| 80:7 | | And no blame is on thee, if he purify himself not |
| 80:8 | | And as to him who comes to thee striving hard |
| 80:9 | | And he fears - |
| 80:10 | | To him thou payest no regard |
| 80:11 | | Nay, surely it is a Reminder |
| 80:12 | | So let him who will mind it |
| 80:13 | | In honoured books |
| 80:14 | | Exalted, purified |
| 80:15 | | In the hands of scribes |
| 80:16 | | Nobel, virtuous |
| 80:17 | | Woe to man! How ungrateful is he |
| 80:18 | | Of what thing did He create him |
| 80:19 | | Of a small life-germ. He creates him, then proportions him |
| 80:20 | | Then makes the way easy for him |
| 80:21 | | Then he causes him to die, then assigns to him a grave |
| 80:22 | | Then when He will, He raises him to life again |
| 80:23 | | Nay, but he does not what He commands him |
| 80:24 | | Then let man look at his food - |
| 80:25 | | How We pour down abundant water |
| 80:26 | | Then cleave the earth, cleaving (it) asunder |
| 80:27 | | Then cause the grain to grow therein |
| 80:28 | | And grapes and clover |
| 80:29 | | And the olive and the palm |
| 80:30 | | And thick gardens |
| 80:31 | | And fruits and herbage - |
| 80:32 | | A provision for you and your cattle |
| 80:33 | | But when the deafening cry comes |
| 80:34 | | The day when a man flees from his brother |
| 80:35 | | And his mother and his father |
| 80:36 | | And his spouse and his sons |
| 80:37 | | Every man of them, that day, will have concern enough to make him indifferent to others |
| 80:38 | | Faces on that day will be bright |
| 80:39 | | Laughing, joyous |
| 80:40 | | And faces on that day will have dust on them |
| 80:41 | | Darkness covering them |
| 80:42 | | Those are the disbelievers, the wicked |
