আল আ’লা (সর্ব মহান)

1 Sabbihi isma rabbika alaAAla

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Praise the name of thy Lord the Most High,

2 Allathee khalaqa fasawwa

2 Who createth, then disposeth;

3 Waallathee qaddara fahada

3 Who measureth, then guideth;

4 Waallathee akhraja almarAAa

4 Who bringeth forth the pasturage,

5 FajaAAalahu ghuthaan ahwa

5 Then turneth it to russet stubble.

6 Sanuqrioka fala tansa

6 We shall make thee read (O Muhammad) so that thou shalt not forget

7 Illa ma shaa Allahu innahu yaAAlamu aljahra wama yakhfa

7 Save that which Allah willeth. Lo! He knoweth the disclosed and that which still is hidden;

8 Wanuyassiruka lilyusra

8 And We shall ease thy way unto the state of ease.

9 Fathakkir in nafaAAati alththikra

9 Therefor remind (men), for of use is the reminder.

10 Sayaththakkaru man yakhsha

10 He will heed who feareth,

11 Wayatajannabuha alashqa

11 But the most hapless will flout it,

12 Allathee yasla alnnara alkubra

12 He who will be flung to the great Fire

13 Thumma la yamootu feeha wala yahya

13 Wherein he will neither die nor live.

14 Qad aflaha man tazakka

14 He is successful who groweth,

15 Wathakara isma rabbihi fasalla

15 And remembereth the name of his Lord, so prayeth,

16 Bal tuthiroona alhayata alddunya

16 But ye prefer the life of the world

17 Waalakhiratu khayrun waabqa

17 Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting.

18 Inna hatha lafee alssuhufi aloola

18 Lo! This is in the former scrolls.

19 Suhufi ibraheema wamoosa

19 The Books of Abraham and Moses.
