Yusuf Ali(The Prophet) frowned and turned away
Saheeh InternationalThe Prophet frowned and turned away
Yusuf AliBecause there came to him the blind man (interrupting)
Saheeh InternationalBecause there came to him the blind man, [interrupting]
Yusuf AliBut what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)
Saheeh InternationalBut what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified
Yusuf AliOr that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him
Saheeh InternationalOr be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him
Yusuf AliAs to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient
Saheeh InternationalAs for he who thinks himself without need
Yusuf AliTo him dost thou attend
Saheeh InternationalTo him you give attention
Yusuf AliThough it is no blame to thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding)
Saheeh InternationalAnd not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified
Yusuf AliBut as to him who came to thee striving earnestly
Saheeh InternationalBut as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]
Yusuf AliAnd with fear (in his heart)
Saheeh InternationalWhile he fears [Allah]
Yusuf AliOf him wast thou unmindful
Saheeh InternationalFrom him you are distracted
Yusuf AliBy no means (should it be so)! For it is indeed a Message of instruction
Saheeh InternationalNo! Indeed, these verses are a reminder
Yusuf AliTherefore let whoso will, keep it in remembrance
Saheeh InternationalSo whoever wills may remember it

Yusuf AliWoe to man! What hath made him reject God
Saheeh InternationalCursed is man; how disbelieving is he
Yusuf AliFrom what stuff hath He created him
Saheeh InternationalFrom what substance did He create him
Yusuf AliFrom a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions
Saheeh InternationalFrom a sperm-drop He created him and destined for him
Yusuf AliThen doth He make His path smooth for him
Saheeh InternationalThen He eased the way for him
Yusuf AliThen He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave
Saheeh InternationalThen He causes his death and provides a grave for him
Yusuf AliThen, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again)
Saheeh InternationalThen when He wills, He will resurrect him
Yusuf AliBy no means hath he fulfilled what God hath commanded him
Saheeh InternationalNo! Man has not yet accomplished what He commanded him
Yusuf AliThen let man look at his food, (and how We provide it)
Saheeh InternationalThen let mankind look at his food
Yusuf AliFor that We pour forth water in abundance
Saheeh InternationalHow We poured down water in torrents
Yusuf AliAnd We split the earth in fragments
Saheeh InternationalThen We broke open the earth, splitting [it with sprouts]
Yusuf AliAnd produce therein corn
Saheeh InternationalAnd caused to grow within it grain

Yusuf AliAt length, when there comes the Deafening Noise
Saheeh InternationalBut when there comes the Deafening Blast
Yusuf AliThat Day shall a man flee from his own brother
Saheeh InternationalOn the Day a man will flee from his brother
Yusuf AliAnd from his mother and his father
Saheeh InternationalAnd his mother and his father
Yusuf AliAnd from his wife and his children
Saheeh InternationalAnd his wife and his children
Yusuf AliEach one of them, that Day, will have enough concern (of his own) to make him indifferent to the others
Saheeh InternationalFor every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him
Yusuf AliSome faces that Day will be beaming
Saheeh International[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright
Yusuf AliLaughing, rejoicing
Saheeh InternationalLaughing, rejoicing at good news
Yusuf AliAnd other faces that Day will be dust-stained
Saheeh InternationalAnd [other] faces, that Day, will have upon them dust
Yusuf AliBlackness will cover them
Saheeh InternationalBlackness will cover them
Yusuf AliSuch will be the Rejecters of God, the doers of iniquity
Saheeh InternationalThose are the disbelievers, the wicked ones
