Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High,
87:2 ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ﴿٢﴾
Who hath created, and further, given order and proportion;
87:3 وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ ﴿٣﴾
Who hath ordained laws. And granted guidance;
87:4 وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ ﴿٤﴾
And Who bringeth out the (green and luscious) pasture,
87:5 فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ ﴿٥﴾
And then doth make it (but) swarthy stubble.
87:6 سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ ﴿٦﴾
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget,
87:7 إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ ﴿٧﴾
Except as Allah wills: For He knoweth what is manifest and what is hidden.

And We will make it easy for thee (to follow) the simple (Path).

87:12 ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ ﴿١٢﴾
Who will enter the Great Fire,
87:13 ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ ﴿١٣﴾
In which they will then neither die nor live.
87:14 قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ﴿١٤﴾

Day (behold), ye prefer the life of this world;
87:17 وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ ﴿١٧﴾
But the Hereafter is better and more enduring.
