The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 who created and shaped, 2 Who determines and directs, 3 The One Who produced pasture. 4 then caused it to wither away. 5 We shall make thee read (O Muhammad) so that thou shalt not forget 6 except what Allah should wish. He knows all that is manifest and all that is hidden. 7 And We shall make easy unto thee the easy way. 8 So remind, if the reminder should benefit; 9 in mind will keep it he who stands in awe [of God,] 10 Only the wretch will turn aside, 11 He who will be flung to the great Fire 12 Then he neither dies in it, nor lives. 13 Indeed successful is the one who became pure. 14 And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer. 15 But nay, [O men,] you prefer the life of this world, 16 Whereas the Hereafter is better and more lasting. 17 Surely this is in the ancient scrolls, 18 The Books of Abraham and Moses. 19
