    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى١

    Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

    ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ٢

    Who created and proportioned

    وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ٣

    And who destined and [then] guided

    وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ٤

    And who brings out the pasture

    فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ٥

    And [then] makes it black stubble.

    سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ٦

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

    إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ٧

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

    وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ٨

    And We will ease you toward ease.

    فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ٩

    So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

    سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ١٠

    He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.

    وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى١١

    But the wretched one will avoid it -

    ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ١٢

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

    ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ١٣

    Neither dying therein nor living.

    قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ١٤

    He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

    وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ١٥

    And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.

    بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا١٦

    But you prefer the worldly life,

    وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ١٧

    While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

    إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ١٨

    Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,

    صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ١٩

    The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْغَٰشِيَةِ١

    Has there reached you the report of the Overwhelming [event]?

    وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَٰشِعَةٌ٢

    [Some] faces, that Day, will be humbled,

    عَامِلَةٌۭ نَّاصِبَةٌۭ٣

    Working [hard] and exhausted.

    تَصْلَىٰ نَارًا حَامِيَةًۭ٤

    They will [enter to] burn in an intensely hot Fire.

    تُسْقَىٰ مِنْ عَيْنٍ ءَانِيَةٍۢ٥

    They will be given drink from a boiling spring.

    لَّيْسَ لَهُمْ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِن ضَرِيعٍۢ٦

    For them there will be no food except from a poisonous, thorny plant

    لَّا يُسْمِنُ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِن جُوعٍۢ٧

    Which neither nourishes nor avails against hunger.

    وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاعِمَةٌۭ٨

    [Other] faces, that Day, will show pleasure.

    لِّسَعْيِهَا رَاضِيَةٌۭ٩

    With their effort [they are] satisfied

    فِى جَنَّةٍ عَالِيَةٍۢ١٠

    In an elevated garden,

    لَّا تَسْمَعُ فِيهَا لَٰغِيَةًۭ١١

    Wherein they will hear no unsuitable speech.

    فِيهَا عَيْنٌۭ جَارِيَةٌۭ١٢

    Within it is a flowing spring.

    فِيهَا سُرُرٌۭ مَّرْفُوعَةٌۭ١٣

    Within it are couches raised high

    وَأَكْوَابٌۭ مَّوْضُوعَةٌۭ١٤

    And cups put in place

    وَنَمَارِقُ مَصْفُوفَةٌۭ١٥

    And cushions lined up

    وَزَرَابِىُّ مَبْثُوثَةٌ١٦

    And carpets spread around.

    أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلْإِبِلِ كَيْفَ خُلِقَتْ١٧

    Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created?

    وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيْفَ رُفِعَتْ١٨

    And at the sky - how it is raised?

    وَإِلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ كَيْفَ نُصِبَتْ١٩

    And at the mountains - how they are erected?

    وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ كَيْفَ سُطِحَتْ٢٠

    And at the earth - how it is spread out?

    فَذَكِّرْ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٌۭ٢١

    So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder.

    لَّسْتَ عَلَيْهِم بِمُصَيْطِرٍ٢٢

    You are not over them a controller.

    إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ٢٣

    However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

    فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ٢٤

    Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.

    إِنَّ إِلَيْنَآ إِيَابَهُمْ٢٥

    Indeed, to Us is their return.

    ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا حِسَابَهُم٢٦

    Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently. The live tracker's ayat begin on 25 September 2026; for earlier days this page shows the Haramain library's records.

Where this comes from

Each prayer's imam, passage and recording are listed by the Haramain library, Tilawat al-Haramain (tilawatalharamain.com), usually within a few hours of the prayer. Its titles are written by hand; Hasanah reads the surahs and ayat from them.

The ayat by rak'ah come from Hasanah's live tracker, which listens to the Quran channel's broadcast from the Haram and names each ayah as it is recited. It has kept them since 25 September 2026. It can miss an ayah or mishear one, so a passage it heard may be a little shorter or longer than the one recited.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently, so there is no recitation to show for them. Times are calculated for Makkah by the Umm al-Qura method.
