SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

The Prophet frowned and turned away

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

As for he who thinks himself without need,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

To him you give attention.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

While he fears [Allah],

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

From him you are distracted.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

No! Indeed, these verses are a reminder;

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

So whoever wills may remember it.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

[It is recorded] in honored sheets,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Exalted and purified,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

[Carried] by the hands of messenger-angels,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Noble and dutiful.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Cursed is man; how disbelieving is he.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

From what substance did He create him?

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Then He eased the way for him;

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Then let mankind look at his food -

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

How We poured down water in torrents,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And caused to grow within it grain

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And grapes and herbage

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And olive and palm trees

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And gardens of dense shrubbery

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And fruit and grass -

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And his mother and his father

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

And his wife and his children,

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Laughing, rejoicing at good news.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

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

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Blackness will cover them.

SAHEEH INTERNATIONAL

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked ones.
