About this surah

Classified as revealed in the Meccan period, this surah begins with someone frowning and turning away when a blind man came to him, and points out that attention was given to one who considered himself self-sufficient while the one who came eagerly and in awe of God was neglected. It then states that this message is a reminder recorded in honoured, purified scrolls in the hands of noble scribes. Next it asks how ungrateful man is, given that God created him from a drop of fluid, eased his way, causes him to die and will raise him again. It invites man to look at his food: the rain poured down, the earth split open, and the grain, grapes, olives, palms and fruit that grow from it. It closes with the Day when a person flees from his brother, parents, wife and children, and faces are either bright or covered in dust.

• The blind man's visit
• Honoured scrolls
• Human ingratitude
• Signs in one's food
• Fleeing from one's family

The name The name comes from the opening words of verse 1, 'He frowned and turned away.'
