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