The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High, 1 Who creates, then makes complete, 2 And Who hath disposed and then guided, 3 who brings forth the pastures, 4 Then turneth it to russet stubble. 5 We shall now make you read (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), so you will not forget. 6 Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden. 7 We shall take you slowly towards ease. 8 Therefore remind, if the Reminder profits, 9 He who fears will mind, 10 And the most unfortunate one will avoid it, 11 Who will enter the great Fire and made to taste its burning, 12 then he shall neither die therein, nor live. 13 He who purified himself shall prosper, 14 remember the name of the Lord, and pray to Him. 15 Nay, you prefer the life of this world; 16 Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting. 17 Surely this is in the ancient scrolls, 18 The Books of Abraham and Moses. 19
