87:1

Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High,

87:2

Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion;

87:3

Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;

87:4

And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,

87:5

And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.

87:6

By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget,

87:7

Except as Allah wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is hidden.

87:8

And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).

87:9

Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).

87:10

The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah):

87:11

But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,

87:12

Who will enter the Great Fire,

87:13

In which they will then neither die nor live.

87:14

But those will prosper who purify themselves,

87:15

And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer.

87:16

Day (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;

87:17

But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

87:18

And this is in the Books of the earliest (Revelation),-

87:19

The Books of Abraham and Moses.
