Chapter 87, 19 verses
سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى
Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
Who creates, then makes complete,
الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
And Who makes (things) according to a measure, then guides (them to their goal),
وَالَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ
And Who brings forth herbage,
وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعَىٰ
فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ
Then makes it dried up, dust - colored.
فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاءً أَحْوَىٰ
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ
We will make you recite so you shall not forget,
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰ
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ
Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden.
إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
And We will make your way smooth to a state of ease.
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ
Therefore do remind, surely reminding does profit.
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَىٰ
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ
He who fears will mind,
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى
And the most unfortunate one will avoid it,
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى
ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
Who shall enter the great fire;
الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
Then therein he shall neither live nor die.
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
He indeed shall be who purifies himself,
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ
And magnifies the name of his Lord and prays.
وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا
Nay! you prefer the life of this world,
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا
وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ
While the hereafter is better and more lasting.
وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ
Most surely this is in the earlier scriptures,
إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَىٰ
صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ
The scriptures of Ibrahim and Musa.
صُحُفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ
