87. al-A`la: The Most High
1 Praise the name of thy Lord
the Most High,
2 Who createth, then disposeth;
3 Who measureth, then guideth;
4 Who bringeth forth the pasturage,
5 Then turneth it to russet
stubble.
6 We shall make thee read (O
Muhammad) so that thou shalt not forget
7 Save that which Allah willeth.
Lo! He knoweth the disclosed and that which still is hidden;
8 And We shall ease thy way
unto the state of ease.
9 Therefor remind (men), for
of use is the reminder.
10 He will heed who feareth,
11 But the most hapless will
flout it,
12 He who will be flung to the
great Fire
13 Wherein he will neither die
nor live.
14 He is successful who groweth,
15 And remembereth the name
of his Lord, so prayeth,
16 But ye prefer the life of
the world
17 Although the Hereafter is
better and more lasting.
18 Lo! This is in the former
scrolls.
19 The Books of Abraham and
Moses.
