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

as rendered by Maulana Muhammad Ali — 19 verses

Glorify the name of thy Lord, the Most High
Who creates, then makes complete
And Who measures, then guides
And Who brings forth herbage
Then makes it dried up, dust-coloured
We shall make thee recite so thou shalt not forget -
Except what Allah please. Surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden
And We shall make thy way smooth to a state of ease
So remind, reminding indeed profits
He who fears will mind
And the most unfortunate one will avoid it
Who will burn int he great Fire
Then therein he will neither live nor die
He indeed is successful who purifies himself
And remembers the name of his Lord, then prays
But, you prefer the life of this world
While the Hereafter is better and more lasting
Surely this is in the earlier scripture
The scriptures of Abraham and Moses
