Surah AL-ALA / The Most High in English | Surah 87

AL-ALA · 19 verses

In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

1 Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

2 Who created and proportioned

3 And Who destined and [then] guided

4 And who brings out the pasture

5 And [then] makes it black stubble.

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

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

8 And We will ease you toward ease.

9 So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

10 He who fears [ Allah ] will be reminded.

11 But the wretched one will avoid it -

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

13 Neither dying therein nor living.

14 He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

15 And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.

16 But you prefer the worldly life,

17 While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

18 Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,

19 The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.

Tafsir

Verse 1

Glorify the Name of your Lord, that is, exalt your Lord above what does not befit Him (ism [in isma rabbika, ‘the Name of your Lord’] is extra), the Most High (an adjective qualifying rabbika, ‘your Lord’),

Verse 2

Who created and proportioned, His creature, making it of well-proportioned parts, without irregularities,

Verse 3

and Who determined, what He wants, and guided, to what He had determined of good or evil,

Verse 4

and Who brought forth the pasture, [Who] caused herbage to grow,

Verse 5

then made it, after verdancy, blackened stubble, desiccated broken chaff.

Verse 6

We will have you recite, the Qur’ān, so that you will not forget, what you recite,

Verse 7

except what God may will, that you forget, by abrogating its recitation and its ruling — the Prophet (s) used to recite aloud while Gabriel recited, fearing to forget, and so it is as though it was said to him, ‘Do not hasten in it; you will not forget and so do not weary yourself by reciting it aloud’; assuredly He, exalted be He, knows what is overt, of words and deeds, and what is hidden, of both of these.

Verse 8

And We will ease your way to the easy way, the uncomplicated Law, namely, Islam.

Verse 9

So remind, admonish by the Qur’ān, in case the reminder should be of benefit, to the one whom you might remind, the one mentioned in [the following verse] ‘he [who fears] will be reminded’, in other words, even if it might not be of benefit, for it is of benefit to some but of no benefit to others.

Verse 10

He who fears, God, exalted be He, will be reminded, by it, as in the verse: So admonish by the Qur’ān him who fears My threat [Q. 50:45];

Verse 11

but the wretched one (al-ashqā means al-shaqī), that is to say, the disbeliever, will shun it, that is, the reminder, in other words, he will leave it aside, not looking at it,

Verse 12

he who will be roasted in the greater Fire, the Fire of the Hereafter, the lesser fire being that of this world;

Verse 13

then he will neither die therein, and find rest, nor live, a enjoyable life.

Verse 14

Successful, winner, indeed is he who purifies himself, [who] cleanses himself by means of [his adherence to] faith,

Verse 15

and mentions the Name of his Lord, saying Allāhu akbar, ‘God is Great’, and prays, the five prayers — and such are the concerns of [one working towards] the Hereafter, [concerns] which the Meccan disbelievers shun.

Verse 16

Nay, but you prefer (or read yu’thirūna, ‘they prefer’) the life of this world, to the Hereafter,

Verse 17

whereas the Hereafter, and the Paradise it entails, is better and more lasting.

Verse 18

Truly this, the success of those who purify themselves, and the Hereafter being better, is in the former scrolls, the ones revealed before the Qur’ān,

Verse 19

the scrolls of Abraham and Moses, the ten scrolls of Abraham and the Torah of Moses.

About the surah AL-ALA / The Most High

Surah 87 : SURAH AL-ALA « THE MOST HIGH »

Description of Surah AL-ALA « THE MOST HIGH »

Surah Al-Ala is one of the Meccan surahs. It is the 87th surah of the Holy Quran. The name « Al-Ala » is taken from the first verse of the surah and translates in English as: « The Most High ». Surah 87 was revealed after Surah al-Takwîr and contains 19 verses. This surah is part of the last section of the Sacred Book, the Juzz Amma, which gathers together all the short surahs, starting from Surah An Naba up to Surah An Nas.

In the first verses of Surah Al-Ala, God calls the Prophet (sws) to glorify Allah and to follow his prophetic mission; then the seven attributes of God are mentioned. This surah begins with a glorification of Allah, notably for all that He has created, whether the visible or the invisible world. Surah 87 also addresses the conditions of the descent of the Holy Book. This surah also speaks of both the believers and the impious, as well as of the sources of happiness and misery of these two groups.

The Prophet (sws) often recited Surah Al-Ala during the Friday prayer and during the prayers of the two feasts.

 

How was Surah Al-Ala revealed?

Surah Al-Ala was revealed in Mecca after Surah al-Takwîr. In the order of revelation, it holds the 8th place.

 

What are the interpretation and the deep meaning of Surah Al-Ala?

Surah Al-Ala recalls the greatness of Allah and the perfection of His Creation, affirming that success and reward will be reserved for all those who perform their prayers, showing devotion and glorification towards the Almighty Lord.

To admit that God is the Creator is to adopt the path of wisdom. It is to accept God « The Most High ». In all that exists, there is nothing that does not depend on God. The whole world, visible and invisible, the animals and mankind, are part of the whole created by Allah Ta'ala. Allah has set the beginning for the Universe and has also set its end. Allah, « The Most High », is the Supreme Being, the One, the Transcendent, the Universal, the Creator of all things, since He possesses Absolute Perfection.

Thus, each time the Messenger of Allah (sws) recited Surah Al Ala, He would say : « Glory to my Lord the Most High », according to Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him.

 

Why recite and learn Surah Al Ala, what are its merits?

Concerning the rewards of this surah, it is first reported from the Companion Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: « The Prophet loved Surah Al-Ala, and it was Mikail who, for the first time, said: « Glory to my Lord, the Most High ». »

Whoever reads this Surah with diligence and reverence will be told on the Day of Resurrection: « Enter through whichever gate of Paradise you desire ».

It is also recommended to recite Surah 87 during the daily prayers in the hope of being granted all its benefits.
