1) The surah discusses how the Prophet frowned and scowled when a blind man came to him, though he should show compassion to those who seek guidance. 2) It describes the Quran as containing valuable scriptures that are glorified, purified, cleaned, and honored in the hands of calligraphers. Those who wish can take admonition from it. 3) On the Day of Judgment, some faces will be beaming with joy while others will be covered with dust, as disbelievers deny Allah's divinity and that He is the Lord and Sustainer.

SURAH ‘ABASA (HE FROWNED)
MECCAN PERIOD
Division: 42
1,2The Messenger frowned and scowled when the blind man came to Him.
-3,4How can you know, he may purify himself, he may take the admonition and
benefit from it.
5-7And as to the one who assumes himself self-sufficient; to him you give
attention when the blame is not upon you if he does not purify himself. 8-10But! As to
the one who comes to you earnestly with knowledge, love and respect and in awe;
you turn away from him assuming that what you do is better.-
(24/80, ‘Abasa/1-10)

11-16Ceratinly not as they think! The Qur’an is a reminder with valuable
scriptures, glorified, purified, cleaned, honored, in the hands of master calligraphists.
Those who wish can take the admonition.

17Stuck in an impasse is he! How strange is he an infidel; man consciously
denies the Divinity of Allah and the fact that He is Rabb [the Lord, the Cherisher,
the Nurturer, the Sustainer]!
18From what substance did He create him? 19A drop of sperm! Allah created,
formed and measured, 20then He sent to him a messenger, revealed a book during his
lifetime thus easing the way to the righteous path, 21then He killed him, put him in
his tomb, 22then He resurrected him when He wished.
23Certainly not as he thinks! That man has not fulfilled so far what Allah
commanded.
24Then let man look at his food!
25We poured water in torrents. 26Then We split open the earth.
27,32Thus We made there grain, cereals, grapes, cloves, olives, dates, gardens
with dense shrubs and trees, fruits and meadows to grow.

33-36But when there came the horrifying blast of that which clashes hard; on
that day that man will flee from his brother, his mother, his father, his wife and sons.
37On that day, there will be an activity that will keep each of them occupied.
38,39On that day, some faces will be beaming; smiling, rejoicing.
40,41And on that day, some faces will covered with dust and soil; dust and soil
covered with soot. 42And these are the disbelievers who deny; consciously deny the
Divinity of Allah and the fact that Allah is Rabb [the Lord, the Cherisher, the
Nurturer, the Sustainer], stuck deep in evil believing no religion-faith at all.
(24/80, ‘Abasa/17-42)
