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

Lo! This is in the former scrolls. |
|

The Books of Abraham and Moses. |
