The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
۞ Exalt the Name of your Lord, the Highest, 1 Who hath created and then proportioned, 2 And the One Who kept proper measure and then guided. 3 And Who brings forth herbage, 4 and thereupon causes it to decay into rust-brown stubble! 5 We shall teach you (the Quran) and you will not forget it 6 except what Allah wills, surely, He knows all that is (spoken) aloud and what is hidden. 7 We shall take you slowly towards ease. 8 Therefor remind (men), for of use is the reminder. 9 Those who have fear of God will benefit 10 Only the wretch will turn aside, 11 He will be cast into the Great Fire. 12 In which he will neither die nor live. 13 He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself 14 and mentions the Name of his Lord, and prays. 15 But you prefer the life of this world, 16 although the Hereafter is better and more lasting. 17 Verily! This is in the former Scriptures, 18 the scrolls of Abraham and Moses. 19
