# Translation Ayah
1 GLORIFY THE NAME of your Lord, most high, سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى
2 Who creates and proportions, الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّى
3 Who determines and directs, وَالَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَى
4 Who brings out the pastures وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعَى
5 Then reduces them to rusty rubbish. فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاء أَحْوَى
6 We shall make you recite (the Qur'an) so that you will not forget it, سَنُقْرِؤُكَ فَلَا تَنسَى
7 Unless God may please. He knows the visible and knows what is hidden. إِلَّا مَا شَاء اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَى
8 We shall take you slowly towards ease. وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَى
9 So remind them if reminder is profitable: فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَى
10 Those who fear will understand. سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَى
11 Only the wretch will turn aside, وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى
12 Who will burn in the terrible Fire, الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَى
13 In which he will neither die nor live. ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَى
14 Surely he will succeed who grows in goodness, قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّى
15 And recites the name of his Lord and serves with devotion. وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّى
16 But no, you prefer the life of the world, بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا
17 Though the life to come is better and abiding. وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَى
18 This is surely in the earlier Books, إِنَّ هَذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَى
19 The Books of Abraham and Moses. صُحُفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَى
