Al-A'la

ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Who created and proportioned

وَٱلَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ

And who destined and [then] guided

وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَخۡرَجَ ٱلۡمَرۡعَىٰ

And who brings out the pasture

فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحۡوَىٰ

And [then] makes it black stubble

سَنُقۡرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ

We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget

إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡجَهۡرَ وَمَا يَخۡفَىٰ

Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden

وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ

And We will ease you toward ease

فَذَكِّرۡ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ

So remind, if the reminder should benefit

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ

He who fears [Allah] will be reminded

وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

But the wretched one will avoid it

ٱلَّذِي يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ

[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire

ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ

Neither dying therein nor living

قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ

And mentions the name of his Lord and prays

بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا

But you prefer the worldly life

وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ وَأَبۡقَىٰٓ

While the Hereafter is better and more enduring

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

Indeed, this is in the former scriptures

صُحُفِ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ

The scriptures of Abraham and Moses
