Abasa
He Frowned

عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰٓ ١
The Prophet frowned and turned away
أَن جَآءَهُ ٱلْأَعْمَىٰ ٢
Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting].
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُۥ يَزَّكَّىٰٓ ٣
But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنفَعَهُ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰٓ ٤
Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him?
أَمَّا مَنِ ٱسْتَغْنَىٰ ٥
As for he who thinks himself without need,
فَأَنتَ لَهُۥ تَصَدَّىٰ ٦
To him you give attention.
وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ ٧
And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified.
وَأَمَّا مَن جَآءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ ٨
But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]
وَهُوَ يَخْشَىٰ ٩
While he fears [ Allah ],
فَأَنتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ ١٠
From him you are distracted.
