    Read the passage · Al-A'laa

    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

    وَٱلضُّحَىٰ١

    By the morning brightness

    وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا سَجَىٰ٢

    And [by] the night when it covers with darkness,

    مَا وَدَّعَكَ رَبُّكَ وَمَا قَلَىٰ٣

    Your Lord has not taken leave of you, [O Muhammad], nor has He detested [you].

    وَلَلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكَ مِنَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ٤

    And the Hereafter is better for you than the first [life].

    وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ٥

    And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied.

    أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًۭا فَـَٔاوَىٰ٦

    Did He not find you an orphan and give [you] refuge?

    وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّۭا فَهَدَىٰ٧

    And He found you lost and guided [you],

    وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ٨

    And He found you poor and made [you] self-sufficient.

    فَأَمَّا ٱلْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ٩

    So as for the orphan, do not oppress [him].

    وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّآئِلَ فَلَا تَنْهَرْ١٠

    And as for the petitioner, do not repel [him].

    وَأَمَّا بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ فَحَدِّثْ١١

    But as for the favor of your Lord, report [it].

    An-Noor 11–22

    Imam: Khalid Al-Ghamdi

    Read the passage · An-Noor 11–22

    إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ جَآءُو بِٱلْإِفْكِ عُصْبَةٌۭ مِّنكُمْ ۚ لَا تَحْسَبُوهُ شَرًّۭا لَّكُم ۖ بَلْ هُوَ خَيْرٌۭ لَّكُمْ ۚ لِكُلِّ ٱمْرِئٍۢ مِّنْهُم مَّا ٱكْتَسَبَ مِنَ ٱلْإِثْمِ ۚ وَٱلَّذِى تَوَلَّىٰ كِبْرَهُۥ مِنْهُمْ لَهُۥ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌۭ١١

    Indeed, those who came with falsehood are a group among you. Do not think it bad for you; rather it is good for you. For every person among them is what [punishment] he has earned from the sin, and he who took upon himself the greater portion thereof - for him is a great punishment.

    لَّوْلَآ إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ ظَنَّ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتُ بِأَنفُسِهِمْ خَيْرًۭا وَقَالُوا۟ هَٰذَآ إِفْكٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ١٢

    Why, when you heard it, did not the believing men and believing women think good of one another and say, "This is an obvious falsehood"?

    لَّوْلَا جَآءُو عَلَيْهِ بِأَرْبَعَةِ شُهَدَآءَ ۚ فَإِذْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا۟ بِٱلشُّهَدَآءِ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ هُمُ ٱلْكَٰذِبُونَ١٣

    Why did they [who slandered] not produce for it four witnesses? And when they do not produce the witnesses, then it is they, in the sight of Allah, who are the liars.

    وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُۥ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةِ لَمَسَّكُمْ فِى مَآ أَفَضْتُمْ فِيهِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ١٤

    And if it had not been for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy in this world and the Hereafter, you would have been touched for that [lie] in which you were involved by a great punishment

    إِذْ تَلَقَّوْنَهُۥ بِأَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَتَقُولُونَ بِأَفْوَاهِكُم مَّا لَيْسَ لَكُم بِهِۦ عِلْمٌۭ وَتَحْسَبُونَهُۥ هَيِّنًۭا وَهُوَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ عَظِيمٌۭ١٥

    When you received it with your tongues and said with your mouths that of which you had no knowledge and thought it was insignificant while it was, in the sight of Allah, tremendous.

    وَلَوْلَآ إِذْ سَمِعْتُمُوهُ قُلْتُم مَّا يَكُونُ لَنَآ أَن نَّتَكَلَّمَ بِهَٰذَا سُبْحَٰنَكَ هَٰذَا بُهْتَٰنٌ عَظِيمٌۭ١٦

    And why, when you heard it, did you not say, "It is not for us to speak of this. Exalted are You, [O Allah]; this is a great slander"?

    يَعِظُكُمُ ٱللَّهُ أَن تَعُودُوا۟ لِمِثْلِهِۦٓ أَبَدًا إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ١٧

    Allah warns you against returning to the likes of this [conduct], ever, if you should be believers.

    وَيُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمُ ٱلْءَايَٰتِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ١٨

    And Allah makes clear to you the verses, and Allah is Knowing and Wise.

    إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ أَن تَشِيعَ ٱلْفَٰحِشَةُ فِى ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ فِى ٱلدُّنْيَا وَٱلْءَاخِرَةِ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ١٩

    Indeed, those who like that immorality should be spread [or publicized] among those who have believed will have a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter. And Allah knows and you do not know.

    وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُۥ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ رَءُوفٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ٢٠

    And if it had not been for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy... and because Allah is Kind and Merciful.

    ۞ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ لَا تَتَّبِعُوا۟ خُطُوَٰتِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ ۚ وَمَن يَتَّبِعْ خُطُوَٰتِ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنِ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَأْمُرُ بِٱلْفَحْشَآءِ وَٱلْمُنكَرِ ۚ وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُۥ مَا زَكَىٰ مِنكُم مِّنْ أَحَدٍ أَبَدًۭا وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُزَكِّى مَن يَشَآءُ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌۭ٢١

    O you who have believed, do not follow the footsteps of Satan. And whoever follows the footsteps of Satan - indeed, he enjoins immorality and wrongdoing. And if not for the favor of Allah upon you and His mercy, not one of you would have been pure, ever, but Allah purifies whom He wills, and Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

    وَلَا يَأْتَلِ أُو۟لُوا۟ ٱلْفَضْلِ مِنكُمْ وَٱلسَّعَةِ أَن يُؤْتُوٓا۟ أُو۟لِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَٱلْمَسَٰكِينَ وَٱلْمُهَٰجِرِينَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَلْيَعْفُوا۟ وَلْيَصْفَحُوٓا۟ ۗ أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ أَن يَغْفِرَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌ٢٢

    And let not those of virtue among you and wealth swear not to give [aid] to their relatives and the needy and the emigrants for the cause of Allah, and let them pardon and overlook. Would you not like that Allah should forgive you? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

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.

Look up a day

Hijri date

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.
