| | Maududi rendition of Surah He Frowned(`Abasa)

| 80:1 | | He frowned and turned awa |
| 80:2 | | that the blind man came to him |
| 80:3 | | How could you know? Perhaps he would cleanse himself |
| 80:4 | | or he might be mindful and good counsel might avail him |
| 80:5 | | Now he who waxes indifferent |
| 80:6 | | you attend to him |
| 80:7 | | though you are not to blame if he would not cleanse himself |
| 80:8 | | But he who comes to you running |
| 80:9 | | and fears (Allah) |
| 80:10 | | you pay no heed to him |
| 80:11 | | No indeed; this is only a Reminder |
| 80:12 | | So whoso wills may give heed to it |
| 80:13 | | It is contained in scrolls highly honoured |
| 80:14 | | most exalted and purified |
| 80:15 | | borne by the hands of scribes |
| 80:16 | | noble and purified |
| 80:17 | | Accursed be man! How stubbornly he denies the Truth |
| 80:18 | | Out of what did Allah create him |
| 80:19 | | Out of a sperm-drop did He create him and then determined a measure for him |
| 80:20 | | and then made the course of life easy for him |
| 80:21 | | then He caused him to die and brought him to the grave |
| 80:22 | | and then, whenever He wishes, He will raise him back to life |
| 80:23 | | Nay, but man did not fulfil what Allah had enjoined upon him |
| 80:24 | | So let man just consider his food |
| 80:25 | | We poured water, pouring it in great abundance |
| 80:26 | | and cleaved the earth, cleaving it asunder |
| 80:27 | | then caused the grain to grow out of it |
| 80:28 | | together with grapes and vegetables |
| 80:29 | | and olives and palms |
| 80:30 | | and dense orchards |
| 80:31 | | and fruits and pastures |
| 80:32 | | all this as a provision for you and your cattle |
| 80:33 | | But when the deafening cry shall be sounde |
| 80:34 | | on the Day when each man shall flee from his brother |
| 80:35 | | and his mother and his father |
| 80:36 | | and his consort and his children |
| 80:37 | | on that Day each will be occupied with his own business, making him oblivious of all save himself |
| 80:38 | | Some faces on that Day shall be beaming with happiness |
| 80:39 | | and be cheerful and joyous |
| 80:40 | | Some faces on that Day shall be dust-ridden |
| 80:41 | | enveloped by darkness |
| 80:42 | | These will be the unbelievers, the wicked |
