The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 who created all things and gave them due proportions, 2 who has ordained and guided, 3 who brings forth the pastures, 4 then made it a blackening wrack. 5 We shall make you recite (the Qur'an) so that 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 advise, if advising is beneficial. 9 The reminder will be received by him who fears (Allah), 10 But the wretched one will avoid it - 11 He who shall roast into the Great Fire, 12 Wherein he shall neither die nor live, 13 Lasting happiness will be for those who purify themselves, 14 And remembereth the name of his Lord, so prayeth, 15 But rather you prefer the life of this world! 16 Though the life to come is better and abiding. 17 Most surely this is in the earlier scriptures, 18 the scriptures of Abraham and Moses. 19
