| 1 | (The Prophet (Peace be upon him)) frowned and turned away,
| |
| 2 | Because there came to him the blind man (i.e. Abdullah bin Umm-Maktoom, who came to the Prophet (Peace be upon him) while he was preaching to one or some of the Quraish chiefs).
| |
| 3 | But what could tell you that per chance he might become pure (from sins)?
| |
| 4 | Or that he might receive admonition, and that the admonition might profit him?
| |
| 5 | As for him who thinks himself self-sufficient,
| |
| 6 | To him you attend;
| |
| 7 | What does it matter to you if he will not become pure (from disbelief, you are only a Messenger, your duty is to convey the Message of Allah).
| |
| 8 | But as to him who came to you running.
| |
| 9 | And is afraid (of Allah and His Punishment),
| |
| 10 | Of him you are neglectful and divert your attention to another,
| |
| 11 | Nay, (do not do like this), indeed it (these Verses of this Quran) are an admonition,
| |
| 12 | So whoever wills, let him pay attention to it.
| |
| 13 | (It is) in Records held (greatly) in honour (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfooz).
| |
| 14 | Exalted (in dignity), purified,
| |
| 15 | In the hands of scribes (angels).
| |
| 16 | Honourable and obedient.
| |
| 17 | Be cursed (the disbelieving) man! How ungrateful he is!
| |
| 18 | From what thing did He create him?
| |
| 19 | From Nutfah (male and female semen drops) He created him, and then set him in due proportion;
| |
| 20 | Then He makes the Path easy for him;
| |
| 21 | Then He causes him to die, and puts him in his grave;
| |
| 22 | Then, when it is His Will, He will resurrect him (again).
| |
| 23 | Nay, but (man) has not done what He commanded him.
| |
| 24 | Then let man look at his food,
| |
| 25 | That We pour forth water in abundance,
| |
| 26 | And We split the earth in clefts,
| |
| 27 | And We cause therein the grain to grow,
| |
| 28 | And grapes and clover plants (i.e. green fodder for the cattle),
| |
| 29 | And olives and date-palms,
| |
| 30 | And gardens, dense with many trees,
| |
| 31 | And fruits and Abba (herbage, etc.),
| |
| 32 | (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle.
| |
| 33 | Then, when there comes As-Sakhkhah (the Day of Resurrections second blowing of Trumpet),
| |
| 34 | That Day shall a man flee from his brother,
| |
| 35 | And from his mother and his father,
| |
| 36 | And from his wife and his children.
| |
| 37 | Everyman, that Day, will have enough to make him careless of others.
| |
| 38 | Some faces that Day, will be bright (true believers of Islamic Monotheism).
| |
| 39 | Laughing, rejoicing at good news (of Paradise).
| |
| 40 | And other faces, that Day, will be dust-stained;
| |
| 41 | Darkness will cover them,
| |
| 42 | Such will be the Kafarah (disbelievers in Allah, in His Oneness, and in His Messenger Muhammad (Peace be upon him), etc.), the Fajarah (wicked evil doers).
