AT TAKWIIR
'ABASA
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
80-1
(The Prophet) frowned and turned away,
80-2
Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting).
80-3
But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?-
80-4
Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him?
80-5
As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient,
80-6
To him dost thou attend;
80-7
Though it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding).
80-8
But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly,
80-9
And with fear (in his heart),
80-10
Of him wast thou unmindful.
80-11
By no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction:
80-12
Therefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance.
80-13
(It is) in Books held (greatly) in honour,
80-14
Exalted (in dignity), kept pure and holy,
80-15
(Written) by the hands of scribes-
80-16
Honourable and Pious and Just.
80-17
Woe to man! What hath made him reject God;
80-18
From what stuff hath He created him?
80-19
From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions;
80-20
Then doth He make His path smooth for him;
80-21
Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave;
80-22
Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again).
80-23
By no means hath he fulfilled what God hath commanded him.
80-24
Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it):
80-25
For that We pour forth water in abundance,
80-26
And We split the earth in fragments,
80-27
And produce therein corn,
80-28
And Grapes and nutritious plants,
80-29
And Olives and Dates,
80-30
And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees,
80-31
And fruits and fodder,-
80-32
For use and convenience to you and your cattle.
80-33
At length, when there comes the Deafening Noise,-
80-34
That Day shall a man flee from his own brother,
80-35
And from his mother and his father,
80-36
And from his wife and his children.
80-37
Each one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others.
80-38
Some faces that Day will be beaming,
80-39
Laughing, rejoicing.
80-40
And other faces that Day will be dust-stained,
80-41
Blackness will cover them:
80-42
Such will be the Rejecters of God, the doers of iniquity. THE OVERTHROWING, EXTINGUISHED! WRAPPING THINGS UP,
AT TAKWIIR
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
81-1
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up;
81-2
When the stars fall, losing their lustre;
81-3
When the mountains vanish (like a mirage);
81-4
When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended;
81-5
When the wild beasts are herded together (in the human habitations);
81-6
When the oceans boil over with a swell;
81-7
When the souls are sorted out, (being joined, like with like);
81-8
When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned -
81-9
For what crime she was killed;
81-10
When the scrolls are laid open;
81-11
When the world on High is unveiled;
81-12
When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat;
81-13
And when the Garden is brought near;-
81-14
(Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward.
81-15
So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede,
81-16
Go straight, or hide;
81-17
And the Night as it dissipates;
81-18
And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;-
81-19
Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger,
81-20
Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne,
81-21
With authority there, (and) faithful to his trust.
81-22
And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed;
81-23
And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.
81-24
Neither doth he withhold grudgingly a knowledge of the Unseen.
81-25
Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed.
81-26
When whither go ye?
81-27
Verily this is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds:
81-28
(With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight:
81-29
But ye shall not will except as God wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds.
