Chapter 80 | Hubeali en-US Chapter 80 | Hubeali 32 32 ABASA (Chapter 80) Sura Al-Abasa (42 verses) was revealed in Makkah. Imam Al-Sadiq-asws says: ‘It (Chapter 80) was Revealed regarding a man from the clan of Umayya (Usman) who was in the presence of the Prophet-saww. Ibn Ami Maktoum came up. But when he (Usman) saw him as filthy, he frowned his face, and gathered (his clothing around) himself, and turned his face away from him.
Allah-azwj the Glorious Spoke that about him, and Criticised him upon it’’. In Tafseer Al-Qummi - Allah-azwj Revealed: He frowned and turned around [80:1] - Meaning Usman. When the blind man came to him [80:2] And what would make you realise, perhaps he would purify himself? [80:3] – i.e. become clean, pure, Or pay heed [80:4]. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww would remind him, so the Zikr would benefit him? [80:4].
Then He-azwj Addressed Usman, so He-azwj Said: As for one who (thinks he) is needless [80:5] So you face up to him [80:6]. He-asws said: ‘You (Usman), if a rich man comes to you, you address him and appreciate him. And what is upon you if he does not purify? [80:7] - i.e., you (Usman) would not have cared whether he was purified or without purification, if he was rich. And as to one who comes to you striving [80:8] - Meaning Ibn Ami Maktoum.
And he is fearing [80:9] So you are distracting yourself away from him [80:10], i.e., you play around, and are not turning towards him’’. The post ABASA (Chapter 80) first appeared on Hubeali.]]>
