Surah 17. Al-Israa, Ayah 83
وَإِذَآ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَى ٱلْإِنسَـٰنِ أَعْرَضَ وَنَـَٔا بِجَانِبِهِۦ ۖ وَإِذَا مَسَّهُ ٱلشَّرُّ كَانَ يَـُٔوسًا
Wai tha anAAamn a AAal a alins a ni aAAra d a wana a bij a nibihi wai tha massahu a l shsharru k a na yaoos a n for [it often happens that] when We bestow Our blessings upon man, he turns away and arrogantly keeps aloof [from any thought of Us]; and when evil fortune touches him, he abandons all hope.99
- Mohammad Asad
Man is a strange creature: when We bestow Our favors on man, he turns his back and drifts off to one side (instead of coming to Us) and whenever evil touches him, he gives himself up to despair.
- Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
When We grant people Our favours, they turn away, acting arrogantly. But when touched with evil, they lose all hope.
- Mustafa Khattab
And when We make life pleasant unto man, he turneth away and is averse; and when ill toucheth him he is in despair.
- Marmaduke Pickthall
Yet when We bestow Our favors on man he turns away and becomes remote on his side (instead of coming to Us) and when Evil seizes him he gives himself up to despair! 2283
- Abdullah Yusuf Ali
