Surah: Al 'A'laa
الأعلی
The Most High
87:1

Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,
سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْاَعْلَىۙ

87:2

Who created and proportioned
الَّذِىْ خَلَقَ فَسَوّٰى ۖ

87:3

And Who destined and [then] guided
وَالَّذِىْ قَدَّرَ فَهَدٰى ۖ

87:4

And who brings out the pasture
وَالَّذِىْۤ اَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعٰى ۖ

87:5

And [then] makes it black stubble.
فَجَعَلَهٗ غُثَآءً اَحْوٰىۗ

87:6

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

87:7

Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden.
اِلَّا مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُۗ اِنَّهٗ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفٰىۗ

87:8

And We will ease you toward ease.
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرٰى ۖ

87:9

So remind, if the reminder should benefit;
فَذَكِّرْ اِنْ نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرٰىۗ

87:10

He who fears [ Allah ] will be reminded.
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَنْ يَّخْشٰىۙ

87:11

But the wretched one will avoid it -
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْاَشْقَىۙ

87:12

[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire,
الَّذِىْ يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرٰىۚ

87:13

Neither dying therein nor living.
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوْتُ فِيْهَا وَلَا يَحْيٰىۗ

87:14

He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself
قَدْ اَفْلَحَ مَنْ تَزَكّٰىۙ

87:15

And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.
وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهٖ فَصَلّٰى ۗ

87:16

But you prefer the worldly life,
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُوْنَ الْحَيٰوةَ الدُّنْيَاۖ

87:17

While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
وَالْاٰخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَّ اَبْقٰىۗ

87:18

Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,
اِنَّ هٰذَا لَفِى الصُّحُفِ الْاُوْلٰىۙ

87:19

The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
صُحُفِ اِبْرٰهِيْمَ وَمُوْسٰى
