Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High:
He who created and moulded;
He who determined and guided;
He who brings forth green pasture,
then makes it blackened stubble.
We will cause you to recite so that you do not forget —
except what Allah wills. He knows what is voiced out loud and what is hidden.
We will ease you to the Easy Way.
Remind, then, if the reminder benefits.
He who has fear will be reminded;
but the most miserable will shun it,
those who will roast in the Greatest Fire
and then neither die nor live in it.
He who has purified himself will have success,
He who invokes the Name of his Lord and prays.
Yet still you prefer the life of the dunya
when the akhira is better and longer lasting.
This is certainly in the earlier texts,
the texts of Ibrahim and Musa.
