Sorah Al-A'la ( The Most High ) - Verses Number 19

سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى ( 1 )

Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

الَّذِي خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ( 2 )

Who created and proportioned

وَالَّذِي قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ ( 3 )

And who destined and [then] guided

وَالَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الْمَرْعَىٰ ( 4 )

And who brings out the pasture

فَجَعَلَهُ غُثَاءً أَحْوَىٰ ( 5 )

And [then] makes it black stubble.

سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰ ( 6 )

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

إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ ( 7 )

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

وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ ( 8 )

And We will ease you toward ease.

فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ الذِّكْرَىٰ ( 9 )

So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ ( 10 )

He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.

وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا الْأَشْقَى ( 11 )

But the wretched one will avoid it -

الَّذِي يَصْلَى النَّارَ الْكُبْرَىٰ ( 12 )

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

ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ ( 13 )

Neither dying therein nor living.

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ( 14 )

He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ ( 15 )

And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.

بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا ( 16 )

But you prefer the worldly life,

وَالْآخِرَةُ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ ( 17 )

While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِي الصُّحُفِ الْأُولَىٰ ( 18 )

Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,

صُحُفِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ ( 19 )

The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.

Say as universe says Laa ilaaha illa AllaahIntroduction to history of polytheism and monotheism: Allah (glory be to him) created all people as Muslims and monotheists but devils came to them and changed and distorted their religion. Allah said in a qudsi hadith, “I created all my slaves as haneefs (monotheists), but the devils came to them, made them deviate from their religion, forbade them that which I had permitted to them, and commanded them to join partners with me for which I has given no authority.” As soon as people commit a type of polytheism, Allah sends his prophets to call them to the suitable type of monotheism.

WHY DO WE PRAY?Why does Man need to Pray?. After a long and hectic day at work, how difficult it is for a tired person to stand on the prayer-mat and concentrate on his prayers to Allah Almighty. Snuggled in a warm and cozy bed, how difficult it is to get up at the call of Mu’adhdhin: “Come to prayer, come to success.” The famous doctor and philosopher Ibn Sina (Avicenna), recalls such a moment in his life. Once cold and icy night, he and his slave were resting in an inn in a remote part of Khurasan. During the night he felt thirsty and shouted out to his slave to get him some water. The salve had no desire to leave his warm bed, so he pretended not to hear Avicenna’s call. But finally after repeated calls he reluctantly got up and went to fetch the water. A little while later, the melodious sound of the Adhan filled the air. Avicenna began to think about the person calling the believers to prayer.
