عبس

Ayahs 21–40 · Makki · 42 Ayahs · Surah 80

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقۡبَرَهُۥ 21

Then He causes his death and provides a grave for him

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ 22

Then when He wills, He will resurrect him

كَلَّا لَمَّا يَقۡضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ 23

No! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him

فَلۡيَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ 24

Then let mankind look at his food

أَنَّا صَبَبۡنَا ٱلۡمَآءَ صَبّٗا 25

How We poured down water in torrents

ثُمَّ شَقَقۡنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ شَقّٗا 26

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

فَأَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا حَبّٗا 27

And caused to grow within it grain

وَعِنَبٗا وَقَضۡبٗا 28

And grapes and herbage

وَزَيۡتُونٗا وَنَخۡلٗا 29

And olive and palm trees

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلۡبٗا 30

And gardens of dense shrubbery

وَفَٰكِهَةٗ وَأَبّٗا 31

And fruit and grass

مَّتَٰعٗا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَٰمِكُمۡ 32

[As] enjoyment for you and your grazing livestock

فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلصَّآخَّةُ 33

But when there comes the Deafening Blast

يَوۡمَ يَفِرُّ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مِنۡ أَخِيهِ 34

On the Day a man will flee from his brother

وَأُمِّهِۦ وَأَبِيهِ 35

And his mother and his father

وَصَٰحِبَتِهِۦ وَبَنِيهِ 36

And his wife and his children

لِكُلِّ ٱمۡرِيٕٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ شَأۡنٞ يُغۡنِيهِ 37

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

وُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٖ مُّسۡفِرَةٞ 38

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright

ضَاحِكَةٞ مُّسۡتَبۡشِرَةٞ 39

Laughing, rejoicing at good news

وَوُجُوهٞ يَوۡمَئِذٍ عَلَيۡهَا غَبَرَةٞ 40

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