1(The Prophet) frowned and turned away, 2Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting). 3But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?- 4Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him? 5As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient, 6To him dost thou attend; 7Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding). 8But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly, 9And with fear (in his heart), 10Of him wast thou unmindful. 11By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction: 12Therefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance. 13(It is) in Books held (greatly) in honour, 14Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy, 15(Written) by the hands of scribes- 16Honourable and Pious and Just. 17Woe to man! What hath made him reject Allah; 18From what stuff hath He created him? 19From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions; 20Then doth He make His path smooth for him; 21Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave; 22Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again). 23By no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him. 24Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it): 25For that We pour forth water in abundance, 26And We split the earth in fragments, 27And produce therein corn, 28And Grapes and nutritious plants, 29And Olives and Dates, 30And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees, 31And fruits and fodder,- 32For use and convenience to you and your cattle. 33At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise,- 34That Day shall a man flee from his own brother, 35And from his mother and his father, 36And from his wife and his children. 37Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others. 38Some faces that Day will be beaming, 39Laughing, rejoicing. 40And other faces that Day will be dust-stained, 41Blackness will cover them: 42Such will be the Rejecters of Allah, the doers of iniquity.
