أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ
I seek refuge in Allah from Satan, the accursed one
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
1
سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى ﴿1﴾
87:1
Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,
2
ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ﴿2﴾
87:2
Who created and proportioned
3
وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ ﴿3﴾
87:3
And who destined and [then] guided
4
وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ ﴿4﴾
87:4
And who brings out the pasture
5
فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ ﴿5﴾
87:5
And [then] makes it black stubble.
6
سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ ﴿6﴾
87:6
We will make you recite, and you will not forget,
7
إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ ﴿7﴾
87:7
Except what Allāh should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden.
8
وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ﴿8﴾
87:8
And We will ease you toward ease.
9
فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ ﴿9﴾
87:9
So ˹always˺ remind ˹with the Quran˺—˹even˺ if the reminder is beneficial ˹only to some˺.
10
سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ ﴿10﴾
87:10
He who fears [Allāh] will be reminded.
11
وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى ﴿11﴾
87:11
But the wretched one will avoid it
12
ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ ﴿12﴾
87:12
[He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire,
13
ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ ﴿13﴾
87:13
Neither dying therein nor living.
14
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ﴿14﴾
87:14
He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself
15
وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ ﴿15﴾
87:15
And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.
16
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا ﴿16﴾
87:16
But you prefer the worldly life,
17
وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ ﴿17﴾
87:17
While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
18
إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ ﴿18﴾
87:18
Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,
19
صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ ﴿19﴾

The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
