بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

بِسۡمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِيۡمِ

  1. سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى 

    سَبِّحِ اسۡمَ رَبِّكَ الۡاَعۡلَيۙ‏ 

    Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High

  2. ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ 

    الَّذِيۡ خَلَقَ فَسَوّٰيࣕۙ‏ 

    Who created and proportioned

  3. وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ 

    وَالَّذِيۡ قَدَّرَ فَهَدٰيࣕۙ‏ 

    And who destined and [then] guided

  4. وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ 

    وَالَّذِيۡ٘ اَخۡرَجَ الۡمَرۡعٰيࣕۙ‏

  5. فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ 

    فَجَعَلَهٗ غُثَآءً اَحۡوٰيؕ‏ 

    And [then] makes it black stubble

  6. سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ 

    سَنُقۡرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنۡسٰ٘يۙ‏ 

    We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget

  7. إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ 

    اِلَّا مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُؕ اِنَّهٗ يَعۡلَمُ الۡجَهۡرَ وَمَا يَخۡفٰيؕ‏ 

    Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden

  8. وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ 

    وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلۡيُسۡرٰيۚۖ‏ 

    And We will ease you toward ease

  9. فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ 

    فَذَكِّرۡ اِنۡ نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكۡرٰيؕ‏ 

    So remind, if the reminder should benefit

  10. سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ 

    سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَنۡ يَّخۡشٰيۙ‏ 

    He who fears [Allah] will be reminded

  11. وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى 

    وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الۡاَشۡقَيۙ‏ 

    But the wretched one will avoid it

  12. ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ 

    الَّذِيۡ يَصۡلَي النَّارَ الۡكُبۡرٰيۚ‏ 

    [He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire

  13. ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ 

    ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوۡتُ فِيۡهَا وَلَا يَحۡيٰيؕ‏ 

    Neither dying therein nor living

  14. قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ 

    قَدۡ اَفۡلَحَ مَنۡ تَزَكّٰيۙ‏ 

    He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

  15. وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ 

    وَذَكَرَ اسۡمَ رَبِّهٖ فَصَلّٰيؕ‏ 

    And mentions the name of his Lord and prays

  16. بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا 

    بَلۡ تُؤۡثِرُوۡنَ الۡحَيٰوةَ الدُّنۡيَاۙ‏ 

    But you prefer the worldly life

  17. وَٱلْـَٔاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ 

    وَالۡاٰخِرَةُ خَيۡرٌ وَّاَبۡقٰيؕ‏ 

    While the Hereafter is better and more enduring

  18. إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ 

    اِنَّ هٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الۡاُوۡلٰيۙ‏ 

    Indeed, this is in the former scriptures

  19. صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ 

    صُحُفِ اِبۡرٰهِيۡمَ وَمُوۡسٰيࣖ‏
