The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 who created all things and gave them due proportions, 2 Who measureth, then guideth; 3 who brings forth green pasture, 4 And [then] makes it black stubble. 5 We shall teach you (the Quran) and you will not forget it 6 save what God wills; surely He knows what is spoken aloud and what is hidden. 7 We shall take you slowly towards ease. 8 So remind them if reminder is profitable: 9 He who fears (Allah) shall heed it, 10 but the most wretched shall flout it, 11 He will be cast into the Great Fire. 12 Wherein he shall neither die nor live, 13 Lasting happiness will be for those who purify themselves, 14 and remembers the Name of his Lord, so he prays. 15 Nay! you prefer the life of this world, 16 While the Hereafter is better and more enduring. 17 Verily! This is in the former Scriptures, 18 the Scrolls of Abraham and Moses. 19
