Al-Alaسُوۡرَةُ الاٴعلی
بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
﴾.﴿
In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful
سَبِّحِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡأَعۡلَى
﴾۱﴿
(O Prophet!) Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High,
ٱلَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
﴾۲﴿
Who has created (everything), and then proportioned (the structures of) them;
وَٱلَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
﴾۳﴿
And Who determined a measure ( i.e. predestined) then guided,
وَٱلَّذِيٓ أَخۡرَجَ ٱلۡمَرۡعَىٰ
﴾۴﴿
And Who brings out the pasturage (from the earth),
سَنُقۡرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ
﴾۶﴿
We shall make you recite (the Qur’an), so you shall not forget (it),
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡجَهۡرَ وَمَا يَخۡفَىٰ
﴾۷﴿
Except what Allah, may will (to be forgotten), He knows what is apparent (speech) and what is hidden (one),
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ
﴾۸﴿
And We shall make (the path) easy for you to approach ease,
فَذَكِّرۡ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ
﴾۹﴿
Therefore (O Prophet!) keep reminding if the reminder benefits,
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ
﴾۱۰﴿
The reminder will be received by the one who fears (Allah),
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى
﴾۱۱﴿
and it will be ignored by the (one who is) wretched,
ٱلَّذِي يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ
﴾۱۲﴿
Who will enter the great (raging) Fire (on the day of judgment),
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ
﴾۱۳﴿
Wherein he will neither die nor live,
قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
﴾۱۴﴿
Indeed whoever purifies (himself from spiritual illnesses) shall certainly achieve success,
وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ
﴾۱۵﴿
And remembers the Name of his Lord, and offers prayer,
بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا
﴾۱۶﴿
Nay, (O people! You do not prefer the life in the Hereafter but in fact) you prefer the worldly life,
وَٱلۡأٓخِرَةُ خَيۡرٞ وَأَبۡقَىٰٓ
﴾۱۷﴿
Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting,
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ
﴾۱۸﴿
(This is not something new but) this is already (written) in the former Scriptures,
