The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 Who hath created and then proportioned, 2 decreed their destinies, and provided them with guidance. 3 And who brings out the pasture 4 Then made it dry and dark. 5 We will make you recite so you shall not forget, 6 Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden. 7 And We will make your way smooth to a state of ease. 8 Therefore advise, if advising is beneficial. 9 Those who have fear of God will benefit 10 But the wretched one will avoid it - 11 who will roast in the Great Fire, 12 wherein they will neither live nor die. 13 Indeed whosoever purifies himself (by avoiding polytheism and accepting Islamic Monotheism) shall achieve success, 14 and remembers the Name of his Lord, so he prays. 15 But you 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
