The Most High, Glory to your Lord in the Highest — Dr Kamal Omar Translation – Parallel Quran

1 The Most High

سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى

Glorify the Name of your Nourisher-Sustainer, the Higher (than all others) —

Sabbihi isma rabbika al-aAAla

الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ

Who has created (every thing that exists) then set (it) in due proportion

Allathee khalaqa fasawwa

وَالَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ

and Who assessed in measure (and) then guided (every creation to its way of life)

Waallathee qaddara fahada

وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعَىٰ

and Who brought out the pasturage

Waallathee akhraja almarAAa

فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاءً أَحْوَىٰ

(and) then made it dried and lifeless, brownish black (wet and decomposed)

FajaAAalahu ghuthaan ahwa

سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰ

Soon, We shall teach you how to recite the correct pronunciation of the written (Arabic Text of Al-Kitab), then you shall not forget (it)

Sanuqri-oka fala tansa

إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ

except what Allah desired. [When Allah desires to put a person to a test regarding his Faith on al-ghaib (the unseen), He may withdraw the capacity to recite, or the capacity to keep in memory, or the capacity to bring to mind some particular portion of the Text of Al-Kitab. All control exists with Allah Alone]. Surely, He knows the apparent and whatever keeps (itself or himself) hidden

Illa ma shaa Allahu innahu yaAAlamu aljahra wama yakhfa

وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ

And We shall provide for you every facility for (reciting and propagating) Al-Yusrah

Wanuyassiruka lilyusra

فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَىٰ

So remind (to yourself and to others) if the Zikrah (‘Reminder’) gave benefit (to a personality)

Fathakkir in nafaAAati alththikra

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ

Soon receives (the) reminder — that who is mindful of the position (of Allah and fears Him)

Sayaththakkaru man yakhsha

وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى

And the more arrogant one will remain unfamiliar to it

Wayatajannabuha al-ashqa

الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ

that, who enters the Great Fire

Allathee yasla alnnara alkubra

ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ

then he does not die therein and nor he lives. (It will be a struggle-state ‘between life and death’)

Thumma la yamootu feeha wala yahya

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

Indeed, he has achieved success who cleans and purifies (the Nafs)

Qad aflaha man tazakka

وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ

and propagated the Name of his Nourisher-Sustainer; then (also) offered Prayer (as detailed in the Book of Allah)

Wathakara isma rabbihi fasalla

بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا

Nay! You people prefer the life of this world

Bal tu/thiroona alhayata alddunya

وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ

although the Hereafter is better and more lasting

Waal-akhiratu khayrun waabqa

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَىٰ

Surely, this, indeed is in As-Suhuf-il-oola

Inna hatha lafee alssuhufi al-oola

صُحُفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ

(also in) Suhuf-e-Ibrahima wa Musa (‘ Surahs with Ibrahim and Musa’)

Suhufi ibraheema wamoosa
