Surah Al-A'laa — الأعلى

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

1. 1سَبِّحِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡأَعۡلَى

   Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

2. 2ٱلَّذِی خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

   Who created and proportioned

3. 3وَٱلَّذِی قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ

   And who destined and [then] guided

4. 4وَٱلَّذِیۤ أَخۡرَجَ ٱلۡمَرۡعَىٰ

   And who brings out the pasture

5. 5فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَاۤءً أَحۡوَىٰ

   And [then] makes it black stubble.

6. 6سَنُقۡرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰۤ

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

7. 7إِلَّا مَا شَاۤءَ ٱللَّهُۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعۡلَمُ ٱلۡجَهۡرَ وَمَا يَخۡفَىٰ

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

8. 8وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلۡيُسۡرَىٰ

   And We will ease you toward ease.

9. 9فَذَكِّرۡ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ

   So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

10. 10سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ

    He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.

11. 11وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

    But the wretched one will avoid it -

12. 12ٱلَّذِی يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ

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

13. 13ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ

    Neither dying therein nor living.

14. 14قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

    He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

15. 15وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ

    And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.

16. 16بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُونَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا

    But you prefer the worldly life,

17. 17وَٱلۡءَاخِرَةُ خَيۡرࣱ وَأَبۡقَىٰۤ

    While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

18. 18إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَفِی ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلۡأُولَىٰ

    Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,

19. 19صُحُفِ إِبۡرَ ٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ

    The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
