80. Abese · verses 18–32

مِنۡ أَيِّ شَيۡءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ

Min ayyi shayin khalaqahu

From what stuff hath He created him?

مِن نُّطۡفَةٍ خَلَقَهُۥ فَقَدَّرَهُۥ

Min nutfatin khalaqahu faqaddarahu

From a sperm-drop: He hath created him, and then mouldeth him in due proportions;

ثُمَّ ٱلسَّبِيلَ يَسَّرَهُۥ

Thumma alssabeela yassarahu

Then doth He make His path smooth for him;

ثُمَّ أَمَاتَهُۥ فَأَقۡبَرَهُۥ

Thumma amatahu faaqbarahu

Then He causeth him to die, and putteth him in his grave;

ثُمَّ إِذَا شَآءَ أَنشَرَهُۥ

Thumma itha shaa ansharahu

Then, when it is His Will, He will raise him up (again).

كـَلَّا لَمَّا يَقۡضِ مَآ أَمَرَهُۥ

Kalla lamma yaqdi ma amarahu

By no means hath he fulfilled what Allah hath commanded him.

فَلۡيَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِهِۦٓ

Falyanthuri alinsanu ila taAAamihi

Then let man look at his food, (and how We provide it):

أَنَّا صَبَبۡنَا ٱلۡمَآءَ صَبّٗا

Anna sababna almaa sabban

For that We pour forth water in abundance,

ثُمَّ شَقَقۡنَا ٱلۡأَرۡضَ شَقّٗا

Thumma shaqaqna alarda shaqqan

And We split the earth in fragments,

فَأَنۢبَتۡنَا فِيهَا حَبّٗا

Faanbatna feeha habban

And produce therein corn,

وَعِنَبٗا وَقَضۡبٗا

WaAAinaban waqadban

And Grapes and nutritious plants,

وَزَيۡتُونٗا وَنَخۡلٗا

Wazaytoonan wanakhlan

And Olives and Dates,

وَحَدَآئِقَ غُلۡبٗا

Wahadaiqa ghulban

And enclosed Gardens, dense with lofty trees,

وَفَٰكِهَةٗ وَأَبّٗا

Wafakihatan waabban

And fruits and fodder,-

مَّتَٰعٗا لَّكُمۡ وَلِأَنۡعَٰمِكُمۡ

MataAAan lakum walianAAamikum

For use and convenience to you and your cattle.
