2. 80:2

   أَنْ جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ

   Because there came to him the blind man, [interrupting]

3. 80:3

   وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّهُ يَزَّكَّىٰ

   But what would make you perceive, [O Muhammad], that perhaps he might be purified

4. 80:4

   أَوْ يَذَّكَّرُ فَتَنْفَعَهُ الذِّكْرَىٰ

   Or be reminded and the remembrance would benefit him

5. 80:5

   أَمَّا مَنِ اسْتَغْنَىٰ

   As for he who thinks himself without need

   فَأَنْتَ لَهُ تَصَدَّىٰ

   To him you give attention

7. 80:7

   وَمَا عَلَيْكَ أَلَّا يَزَّكَّىٰ

   And not upon you [is any blame] if he will not be purified

8. 80:8

   وَأَمَّا مَنْ جَاءَكَ يَسْعَىٰ

   But as for he who came to you striving [for knowledge]

   While he fears [Allah]

    فَأَنْتَ عَنْهُ تَلَهَّىٰ

    From him you are distracted
