1سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى
87|1|Praise the Name of your Lord, the Most High.
 
praising the name is not worshiping the name. Glorifying something good is not shirk.
 
2الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ
87|2|He who creates and regulates.
3وَالَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ
87|3|He who measures and guides.
4وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعَىٰ
87|4|He who produces the pasture.
5فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاءً أَحْوَىٰ
87|5|And then turns it into light debris.
6سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰ
87|6|We will make you read, so do not forget.
7إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ
87|7|Except what God wills. He knows what is declared, and what is hidden.
8وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ
87|8|We will ease you into the Easy Way.
9فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَىٰ
87|9|So remind, if reminding helps.
10سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ
87|10|The reverent will remember.
11وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى
87|11|But the wretched will avoid it.
12الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ
87|12|He who will enter the Gigantic Fire.
13ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ
87|13|Where he will neither die, nor live.
14قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ
87|14|Successful is he who purifies himself.
15وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ
87|15|And mentions the name of his Lord, and prays.
16بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا
87|16|But you prefer the present life.
17وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ
87|17|Though the Hereafter is better, and more lasting.
18إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَىٰ
87|18|This is in the former scriptures.
19صُحُفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ
87|19|The Scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
