Recite in the name of your Lord who created - Al-'alaq [1]

Created man from a clinging substance. Al-'alaq [2]

Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous - Al-'alaq [3]

Who taught by the pen - Al-'alaq [4]

Taught man that which he knew not. Al-'alaq [5]

No! [But] indeed, man transgresses Al-'alaq [6]

Because he sees himself self-sufficient. Al-'alaq [7]

Indeed, to your Lord is the return. Al-'alaq [8]

Have you seen the one who forbids Al-'alaq [9]

A servant when he prays? Al-'alaq [10]

Have you seen if he is upon guidance Al-'alaq [11]

Or enjoins righteousness? Al-'alaq [12]

Have you seen if he denies and turns away - Al-'alaq [13]

Does he not know that Allah sees? Al-'alaq [14]

No! If he does not desist, We will surely drag him by the forelock - Al-'alaq [15]

A lying, sinning forelock. Al-'alaq [16]

Then let him call his associates; Al-'alaq [17]

We will call the angels of Hell. Al-'alaq [18]

No! Do not obey him. But prostrate and draw near [to Allah]. Al-'alaq [19]
