Surah al-A`la (The Most High, Glory to your Lord in the Highest) - Dr. Mohammad Tahir-ul-Qadri Translation

87:1  Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High

87:2  He Who has created (everything in the universe) and then (fulfilling all requisites) equipoised it to its exact proportion

87:3  And He Who has determined law, and guided (it to its) way (of sustaining and functioning according to its respective system)

87:4  And He Who has brought forth green pasture (from the earth)

87:5  And then made it blackened stubble

87:6  (O Esteemed Beloved!) We shall teach you (in a way) that nothing will you (ever) forget

87:7  Except what Allah wills. Indeed, He knows all, the manifest as well as the hidden (i.e., open to human perception as well as veiled from it, and the audible and the inaudible)

87:8  And We shall (also) facilitate you (to put into practice this) easy (law)

87:9  So keep admonishing, provided admonition benefits (the listeners)

87:10  But only he who fears (Allah) will accept the admonition

87:11  And the wretched one will avoid and evade it

87:12  He who will enter the greatest Fire (on the Day of Judgment)

87:13  Then he will neither die nor live in it

87:14  Indeed, only he who is purified (from the afflictions of his ill-commanding self and pollution of sins) will triumph

87:15  And the one who remembers the Name of his Lord and offers Prayers (regularly and abundantly)

87:16  Yet you go for the (pleasures of) the worldly life (instead of turning towards Allah)

87:17  Whereas (the comfort and pleasure of) the Hereafter is preferable and everlasting

87:18  Indeed, this (enlightenment) is (also contained) in earlier scriptures

87:19  The scriptures of Ibrahim (Abraham) and Musa (Moses)
