The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 Who created all things and fashioned them in good proportion; 2 And Who makes (things) according to a measure, then guides (them to their goal), 3 And Who bringeth forth the pasturage, 4 and then made it into a blackish straw. 5 WE SHALL teach thee, and thou wilt not forget [aught of what thou art taught,] 6 Save that which Allah willeth. Lo! He knoweth the disclosed and that which still is hidden; 7 We shall ease you to the easy. 8 Therefore remind, if the Reminder profits, 9 Soon whoever fears will heed advice. 10 but aloof from it will remain that most hapless wretch 11 and suffer the heat of the great fire 12 in which he will neither die nor live therein. 13 He who purified himself shall prosper, 14 and mentions the Name of his Lord, and prays. 15 Nay! you prefer the life of this world, 16 While the Hereafter is better and more enduring. 17 Most surely this is in the earlier scriptures, 18 The Books of Abraham and Moses. 19
