Surah “The Most High, Glory to your Lord in the Highest”

as rendered by Talal Itani (2012) — 19 verses

Praise the Name of your Lord, the Most High
He who creates and regulates
He who measures and guides
He who produces the pasture
And then turns it into light debris.
We will make you read, so do not forget.
Except what God wills. He knows what is declared, and what is hidden
We will ease you into the Easy Way
So remind, if reminding helps
The reverent will remember
But the wretched will avoid it
He who will enter the Gigantic Fire
Where he will neither die, nor live
Successful is he who purifies himself
And mentions the name of his Lord, and prays
But you prefer the present life
Though the Hereafter is better, and more lasting
This is in the former scriptures
The Scriptures of Abraham and Moses
