(87:1) Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, (87:2) Who created all things and fashioned them in good proportion; (87:3) Who determined and guided them, (87:4) Who brought forth the pasture, (87:5) and then made it into a blackish straw. (87:6) We shall make you recite and then you will not forget, (87:7) except what Allah should wish. He knows all that is manifest and all that is hidden. (87:8) We shall ease you to follow the way of Ease. (87:9) So render good counsel if good counsel will avail. (87:10) He who fears (Allah) shall heed it, (87:11) but the wretched will turn away from it. (87:12) He will be cast into the Great Fire. (87:13) Then he will neither die in it, nor live. (87:14) He who purified himself shall prosper, (87:15) remembering his Lord's name and praying. (87:16) No; but you prefer the present life, (87:17) whereas the Hereafter is better and more enduring. (87:18) This, indeed, was in the ancient Scrolls, (87:19) the Scrolls of Abraham and Moses.
