Surah: 80. `Abasa

the day when a man will flee from his own brother

and his mother and his father

and his wife and his sons yawma ‘the day when’ is a substitution for idhā ‘when’ the response to which is indicated by what follows —

and vines and herbs qadb is moist qatt

and olives and date-palms

No indeed! Verily he has not accomplished he has not done what He his Lord commanded him to do.

So let man consider in reflection his source of food how it is determined and procured for him

that We pour down water from the clouds plenteously;

then We split the earth into fissures with vegetation

and cause the grains such as wheat and barley to grow therein
