The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
۞ Proclaim the Purity of your Lord, the Supreme. 1 who creates [every thing,] and thereupon forms it in accordance with what it is meant to be, 2 who has ordained and guided, 3 And Who brings out the pasturage, 4 Then turneth it to russet stubble. 5 We shall make you to recite (the Quran), so you (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) shall not forget (it), 6 except whatever God wills; He knows both what is manifest and what is hidden -- 7 We shall ease you to the easy. 8 Therefore remind, if the Reminder benefits, 9 Soon whoever fears will heed advice. 10 And the wretched shunneth it. 11 Who will burn in the terrible Fire, 12 wherein they will neither live nor die. 13 To happiness [in the life to come] will indeed attain he who attains to purity [in this world,] 14 And mentions the name of his Lord and prays. 15 But rather you prefer the life of this world! 16 and the world to come is better, and more enduring. 17 Indeed this is in the former scriptures. 18 The Books of Abraham and Moses. 19
