87. Ala · verses 9–15

فَذَكِّرۡ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكۡرَىٰ

Fathakkir in nafaAAati alththikra

Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer).

سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخۡشَىٰ

Sayaththakkaru man yakhsha

The admonition will be received by those who fear (Allah):

وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلۡأَشۡقَى

Wayatajannabuha alashqa

But it will be avoided by those most unfortunate ones,

ٱلَّذِي يَصۡلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰ

Allathee yasla alnnara alkubra

Who will enter the Great Fire,

ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحۡيَىٰ

Thumma la yamootu feeha wala yahya

In which they will then neither die nor live.

قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ

Qad aflaha man tazakka

But those will prosper who purify themselves,

وَذَكَرَ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ

Wathakara isma rabbihi fasalla

And glorify the name of their Guardian-Lord, and (lift their hearts) in prayer.
