The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
۞ GLORIFY THE NAME of your Lord, most high, 1 Who created and proportioned 2 decreed their destinies, and provided them with guidance. 3 and who brings forth herbage, 4 Then maketh it to stubble dusky. 5 We shall make thee recite, to forget not 6 Save that which Allah may will. Verily He knoweth the public and that which is hidden. 7 We shall take you slowly towards ease. 8 So remind them if reminder is profitable: 9 He who fears [Allah] will be reminded. 10 but aloof from it will remain that most hapless wretch 11 Who will burn in the terrible Fire, 12 Neither dying therein nor living. 13 Surely he will succeed who grows in goodness, 14 and mentions the Name of his Lord, and prays. 15 But ye prefer the life of this world, 16 even though the life hereafter will be better and will last forever. 17 Surely this is in the ancient scrolls, 18 the scriptures of Abraham and Moses. 19
