| In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

| 1.
| 
(The Prophet (Peace be upon him)) frowned and turned
away, |
| 2.
| 
Because there came to him the blind man (i.e. 'Abdullâh
bin Umm-Maktûm, 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 Allâh). |
| 8.
| 
But as to him who came to you running. |
| 9.
| 
And is afraid (of Allâh 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 Qur'ân) 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-Mahfûz). |
| 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-Sâkhkhah (the
Day of Resurrection's 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 Islâmic 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 Allâh,
in His Oneness, and in His Messenger Muhammad (Peace be upon him),
etc.), the Fajarah (wicked evil doers). |
