| 87:1 | | Extol the limitless glory of the name of your Lord, the Most High, | | 87:2 | | who creates and proportions well, | | 87:3 | | who determines and guides, | | 87:4 | | who brings forth the pasturage, | | 87:5 | | then turns it to withered grass. | | 87:6 | | We shall teach you and you shall not forget, | | 87:7 | | except what God wills. He knows what is manifest and what is kept hidden. | | 87:8 | | And We shall smooth your way to perfect ease. | | 87:9 | | Give warning, therefore, [regardless of] whether such warning is of use. | | 87:10 | | He who fears God will heed it, | | 87:11 | | but the most hapless wretch will turn aside from it, | | 87:12 | | who shall be cast into the great fire, | | 87:13 | | in which he shall neither die nor remain alive. | | 87:14 | | Successful will be he who purifies himself, | | 87:15 | | and glorifies the name of his Lord and prays. | | 87:16 | | Yet you prefer this present life, | | 87:17 | | while the life to come is better and longer lasting. | | 87:18 | | All this has indeed been stated in the earlier revelations; | | 87:19 | | the scriptures of Abraham and Moses. |
