Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High
Who created and gave the things created good shape
And Who determined [the span of existence for the things created] and guided them
And Who brought out the verdure [on the earth]
And then made it into dark rubble
We shall make you recite and then you will not forge
Except for what Allah wills. HE knows what is manifest and what is hidden
And We shall make things easy for you
Should the divine Words of the Qur'aan benefit them, do recite these to them
He who fears (Allah) shall take heed therefrom
And he who is wicked will shun it
He who will burn in the Great Fire
Then he will neither die in it, nor live
He will surely attain salvation who keeps himself pure [in worldly life]
And oft-remembers his Lordճ name and then prays to Him
But no, you prefer this worldly life
Whereas the Hereafter is better and enduring
This fact, indeed, was [also stated] in the earlier Scriptures —
The Scriptures of Abraham and Moses
