بِسْمِ ٱللَّـهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ |  | In the name of God, the Almighty,1 the Merciful.
عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ |  | 802 1 He frowned and turned away
أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ |  | 2 That the blind man came to him.
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ |  | 3 And what can make thee know1 — he might purify himself,
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ |  | 4 Or take heed, and the reminder benefit him?
أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ |  | 5 As for him who is self-sufficient:1
فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ |  | 6 To him thou attendest,
وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ |  | 7 But not upon thee1 is it if he does not purify himself.
وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ |  | 8 And as for him who comes to thee, striving1
وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ |  | 9 And in fear:1
فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ |  | 10 From him thou art distracted.
كَلَّآ إِنَّهَا تَذْكِرَةٌ |  | 11 No, indeed!1 It is a reminder,
فَمَن شَآءَ ذَكَرَهُۥ |  | 12 So whoso wills might remember it,
فِى صُحُفٍ مُّكَرَّمَةٍ |  | 13 In honoured pages,1
مَّرْفُوعَةٍ مُّطَهَّرَةٍۭ |  | 14 Exalted and purified,
بِأَيْدِى سَفَرَةٍ |  | 15 By the hands of scribes
كِرَامٍۭ بَرَرَةٍ |  | 16 Noble and virtuous.
قُتِلَ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مَآ أَكْفَرَهُۥ |  | 17 Damned be1 man! How denying2 he is!
مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ |  | 18 From what did He create him?
مِن نُّطْفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ |  | 19 From a sperm-drop He created him, and determined him;
ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ |  | 20 Then He made the path easy for him;
ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقْبَرَهُۥ |  | 21 Then He gives him death and buries him;
ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ |  | 22 Then, when He wills, He resurrects him.
كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقْضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ |  | 23 No, indeed!1 He2 has not accomplished what He commanded him.
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ |  | 24 So let man look at his food: —
أَنَّا صَبَبْنَا ٱلْمَآءَ صَبًّا |  | 25 That We poured water in showers;1
ثُمَّ شَقَقْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ شَقًّا |  | 26 Then We split the earth in cracks,1
فَأَنۢبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبًّا |  | 27 And We caused to grow therein grain,
وَعِنَبًا وَقَضْبًا |  | 28 And grapes, and herbage,
وَزَيْتُونًا وَنَخْلًا |  | 29 And olives, and date-palms,
وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلْبًا |  | 30 And gardens dense with foliage,
وَفَـٰكِهَةً وَأَبًّا |  | 31 And fruits, and grass,
مَّتَـٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَـٰمِكُمْ |  | 32 As enjoyment for you and your cattle.
فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ |  | 33 Then when there comes the Blast:1
يَوْمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلْمَرْءُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ |  | 34 The day a man will flee from his brother,
وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ |  | 35 And his mother, and his father,
وَصَـٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ |  | 36 And his consort, and his sons,
لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ شَأْنٌ يُغْنِيهِ |  | 37 Every man of them, that day, will have an involvement to suffice him.
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ مُّسْفِرَةٌ |  | 38 Faces, that day, will be bright,
ضَاحِكَةٌ مُّسْتَبْشِرَةٌ |  | 39 Laughing, rejoicing at glad tidings.
وَوُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَيْهَا غَبَرَةٌ |  | 40 And faces, that day, upon them will be dust,
تَرْهَقُهَا قَتَرَةٌ |  | 41 Blackness1 will cover them;
أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْكَفَرَةُ ٱلْفَجَرَةُ |  | 42 It is they who are the deniers, the immoral.
