الأعـلى |
1 |
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High, |
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى |
2 |
Who created and proportioned |
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ |
3 |
And who destined and [then] guided |
وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ |
4 |
And who brings out the pasture |
وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ |
5 |
And [then] makes it black stubble. |
فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ |
6 |
We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget, |
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ |
7 |
Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden. |
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ |
8 |
And We will ease you toward ease. |
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ |
9 |
So remind, if the reminder should benefit; |
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ |
10 |
He who fears [Allah] will be reminded. |
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ |
11 |
But the wretched one will avoid it – |
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى |
12 |
[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire, |
ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ |
13 |
Neither dying therein nor living. |
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ |
14 |
He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself |
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ |
15 |
And mentions the name of his Lord and prays. |
وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ |
16 |
But you prefer the worldly life, |
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا |
17 |
While the Hereafter is better and more enduring. |
وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ |
18 |
Indeed, this is in the former scriptures, |
إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ |
19 |
The scriptures of Abraham and Moses. |
صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ |
