The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ Hallow thou the name of thine Lord, the Most High, 1 who creates [every thing,] and thereupon forms it in accordance with what it is meant to be, 2 who determined and guided, 3 And Who brings out the pasturage, 4 And then makes it dark stubble. 5 We shall make thee recite, to forget not 6 save what God wills; surely He knows what is spoken aloud and what is hidden. 7 We shall ease thee unto the Easing. 8 So remind them if reminder is profitable: 9 He will heed who feareth, 10 but the wretched will turn away from it. 11 Who will burn in the terrible Fire, 12 Wherein he shall neither die nor live, 13 Lasting happiness will be for those who purify themselves, 14 remembering his Lord's name and praying. 15 Nay, you prefer the life of this world; 16 even though the life hereafter will be better and will last forever. 17 Lo! This is in the former scrolls. 18 The Books of Abraham and Moses. 19
