IslamAwakened.com Qur'an Tafsir of Surah `Abasa - He Frowned as rendered by
Yusuf Ali (Orig. 1938)
80:1
(The Prophet) frowned and turned away
80:2
Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting)
80:3
But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?
80:4
Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him
80:5
As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient
80:6
To him dost thou attend
80:7
Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding)
80:8
But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly
80:9
And with fear (in his heart)
80:10
Of him wast thou unmindful
80:11
By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction
80:12
Therefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance
80:13
(It is) in Books held (greatly) in honour
80:14
Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy
80:15
(Written) by the hands of scribes
80:16
Honourable and Pious and Just
80:17
Woe to man! What hath made him reject God
80:18
From what stuff hath He created him
80:19
From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions
80:20
Then doth He make His path smooth for him
80:21
Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave
80:22
Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again)
80:23
By no means hath he fulfilled what God hath commanded him
80:24
Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it)
80:25
For that We pour forth water in abundance
80:26
And We split the earth in fragments
80:27
And produce therein corn
80:28
And Grapes and nutritious plants
80:29
And Olives and Dates
80:30
And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees
80:31
And fruits and fodder,
80:32
For use and convenience to you and your cattle
80:33
At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise,
80:34
That Day shall a man flee from his own brother
80:35
And from his mother and his father
80:36
And from his wife and his children
80:37
Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others
80:38
Some faces that Day will be beaming
80:39
Laughing, rejoicing
80:40
And other faces that Day will be dust-stained
80:41
Blackness will cover them
80:42
Such will be the Rejecters of God, the doers of iniquity
