The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ Exalt the Name of your Lord, the Highest, 1 who created and shaped, 2 And Who hath disposed and then guided, 3 Who brings out the pastures 4 then turns it into black stubble. 5 We shall now make you read (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him), so you will not forget. 6 except what Allah wills, surely, He knows all that is (spoken) aloud and what is hidden. 7 And We shall make easy for you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) the easy way (i.e. the doing of righteous deeds). 8 Therefore remind, if the Reminder benefits, 9 He will heed who feareth, 10 And the wretched shunneth it. 11 who will roast in the Great Fire, 12 Wherein he shall neither die nor live, 13 He who purified himself shall prosper, 14 And recites the name of his Lord and serves with devotion. 15 But rather you prefer the life of this world! 16 While the Hereafter is better and more enduring. 17 This indeed is what is taught in the former scriptures -- 18 the scrolls of Abraham and Moses. 19
