The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 Who hath created and then proportioned, 2 Who determines and directs, 3 And Who bringeth forth the pasturage, 4 And then makes it dark stubble. 5 We shall make you recite and then you will not forget, 6 Except what Allah wills; indeed He knows all the evident and all the concealed. 7 And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path). 8 So render good counsel if good counsel will avail. 9 He who fears [God] will heed the reminder, 10 But the wretched one will avoid it - 11 Who will enter the great Fire and made to taste its burning, 12 Then he will neither die in it, nor live. 13 Prosperous is he who purifies himself, 14 And mentions the name of his Lord and prays. 15 Nay, you prefer the life of this world; 16 but the Everlasting Life is better, and more enduring. 17 This is surely in the earlier Books, 18 The Scriptures of Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses). 19
