The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High, 1 Who createth, then disposeth; 2 Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance; 3 Who brings out the pastures 4 Then made it dry and dark. 5 We shall make you to recite (the Quran), so you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) shall not forget (it), 6 except what Allah should wish. He knows all that is manifest and all that is hidden. 7 We shall ease you to follow the way of Ease. 8 Therefore remind, if the Reminder profits, 9 Those who fear will understand. 10 But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones, 11 even he who shall roast in the Great Fire, 12 wherein he will neither die nor remain alive. 13 To happiness [in the life to come] will indeed attain he who attains to purity [in this world,] 14 remember the name of the Lord, and pray to Him. 15 Nay, but you prefer the present life; 16 even though the life hereafter will be better and will last forever. 17 This is what is written in the ancient heavenly Books, 18 The scriptures of Abraham and Moses. 19
