عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ١
(The Prophet) frowned and turned away,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ١
(The Prophet) frowned and turned away,
أَنْ جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ ٢
Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting).
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّىٰ ٣
But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?-
