عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ١
(The Prophet) frowned and turned away,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
80:2
أَنْ جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ ٢
Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting).
80:3
وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّىٰ ٣
But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?-
80:4
أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنْفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ ٤
Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him?
