Sahih International

He [i.e., the Prophet (ﷺ) ] frowned and turned away

Sahih International

Because there came to him the blind man,1 [interrupting].

Sahih International

But what would make you perceive, [O Muḥammad], that perhaps he might be purified1

Sahih International

Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

Sahih International

As for he who thinks himself without need,1

Sahih International

To him you give attention.

Sahih International

And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.1

Sahih International

But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

Sahih International

While he fears [Allāh],

Sahih International

From him you are distracted.

Sahih International

No! Indeed, they [i.e., these verses] are a reminder;

Sahih International

So whoever wills may remember it.1

Sahih International

[It is recorded] in honored sheets,

Sahih International

Exalted and purified,

Sahih International

[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

Sahih International

Noble and dutiful.

Sahih International

Destroyed [i.e., cursed] is man;1 how disbelieving is he.

Sahih International

From what thing [i.e., substance] did He create him?

Sahih International

From a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him;1

Sahih International

Then He eased the way for him;1

Sahih International

Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him.1

Sahih International

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

Sahih International

No! He [i.e., man] has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

Sahih International

Then let mankind look at his food -

Sahih International

How We poured down water in torrents,

Sahih International

Then We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts],

Sahih International

And caused to grow within it grain

Sahih International

And grapes and herbage

Sahih International

And olive and palm trees

Sahih International

And gardens of dense shrubbery

Sahih International

And fruit and grass -

Sahih International

[As] enjoyment [i.e., provision] for you and your grazing livestock.

Sahih International

But when there comes the Deafening Blast1

Sahih International

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

Sahih International

And his mother and his father

Sahih International

And his wife and his children,

Sahih International

For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.1

Sahih International

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

Sahih International

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

Sahih International

And [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust.

Sahih International

Blackness will cover them.

Sahih International

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
