The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ Praise the name of thy Lord the Most High, 1 Who created all things and fashioned them in good proportion; 2 Who determined and guided them, 3 and who brings forth herbage, 4 then made it dry dark, flaky stubble, 5 We shall teach you (the Quran) and you will not forget it 6 except what Allah should wish. He knows all that is manifest and all that is hidden. 7 and [thus] shall We make easy for thee the path towards [ultimate] ease. 8 Therefore do remind, surely reminding does profit. 9 and he who fears shall remember, 10 And the wretched shunneth it. 11 He who will be flung to the great Fire 12 Then therein he shall neither live nor die. 13 He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself 14 and remembers the Name of his Lord, so he prays. 15 Nay (behold), ye prefer the life of this world; 16 Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting. 17 Most surely this is in the earlier scriptures, 18 the scrolls of Abraham and Moses. 19
