English - Chapter 80 - Abasa

The prophet frowned, and turned aside

because the blind man came unto him

And how dost thou know whether he shall peradventure be cleansed from his sins

or whether he shall be admonished, and the admonition shall profit him

The man who is wealthy

thou receivest respectfully

whereas it is not to be charged on thee, that he is not cleansed

But him who cometh unto thee earnestly seeking his salvation

and who feareth God

dost thou neglect

By no means shouldest thou act thus

Verily the Koran is an admonition; -- and he who is willing retaineth the same

written in volumes honourable

exalted, and pure

by the hands of scribes honoured

and just

May man be cursed! What hath seduced him to infidelity

Of what thing doth God create him

Of a drop of seed doth He create him; and He formeth him with proportion

and then facilitateth his passage out of the womb

hereafter, when it shall please Him, He shall raise him to life

Assuredly. He hath not hitherto fully performed what God hath commanded him

Let man consider his food; in what manner it is provided

We pour down water by showers

afterwards We cleave the earth in clefts

and We cause corn to spring forth therein

and grapes, and clover

and the olive, and the palm

and gardens planted thick with trees

and fruits, and grass

for the use of yourselves and of your cattle

When the stunning sound of the trumpet shall be heard

on that day shall a man fly from his brother

and his mother, and his father

and his wife, and his children

Every man of them, on that day, shall have business of his own sufficient to employ his thoughts

On that day the faces of some shall be bright

laughing, and joyful

And upon the faces of others, on that day, shall there be dust

darkness shall cover them

These are the unbelievers, the wicked
