Glorify the name of thy Lord, the Most High
Who creates man and perfects him
And Who determines his capacities and furnishes him with appropriate guidance
And Who brings forth the pasturage
Then turns it into black stubble
WE shall teach thee the Qur'an and thou shalt not forget it
Except as what ALLAH wills. Surely, HE knows what is manifest and what is hidden
And WE shall provide thee with every facility
So keep on admonishing people. Surely, admonition is, indeed, profitable
He who fears will heed
But the most wretched will turn aside from it
He who will enter the great Fire
Then he will neither die therein nor live
Verily, he, indeed, will prosper who purifies himself
And remembers the name of his Lord and offer Prayers
But you prefer the life of this world
Whereas the Hereafter is better and more lasting
This, indeed, is what is taught in the former Scriptures
The Scriptures of Abraham and Moses
