Al-Alaq العلق
Read, in your Guardian's name اقرأ باسم ربّك
Summary and links in the frieze
In the frieze He is ordered to read in his Guardian's name, and to prostrate without yielding to the one who stops him.
Read just before, 97 leads here: What was sent down in the Night of Measure is read: the next sura commands "Read, in the name of your Guardian". 97
It leads to 95: Created from a clinging form, the human being exceeds all measure; next, he is created in the most beautiful stature, then brought low. 95

Kwa jina la Mungu, Mwingi wa Huruma, Mwenye Huruma. Soma, kwa jina la Mlezi wako aliyeumba!
ٮسم الله الرحمں الرحٮم اڡرا ٮاسم رٮك الدى حلٯ
Alimuumba mwanadamu kutoka kwa kinachoshikamana.
حلٯ الاٮسں مں علٯ
Soma! Na Mlezi wako ni Mkarimu tele, ambaye alifundisha kwa kalamu, akamfundisha mwanadamu yale asiyoyajua.
اڡرا ورٮك الاكرم الدى علم ٮالڡلم علم الاٮسں ما لم ٮعلم
Siyo hivyo! Kwa yakini mwanadamu anapindukia kila kiasi, kwa sababu anajiona tajiri.
كلا اں الاٮسں لٮطعى اں راه اسٮعٮى
Kwa Mlezi wako ndiko kurejea.
اں الى رٮك الرحعى
Je, umemwona yule anayemzuia mtiifu, anapoanzisha Mawasiliano?
ارٮٮ الدى ٮٮهى عٮدا ادا صلى
Je, unaona kama yuko juu ya mwongozo, au anaamuru ujikingaji?
ارٮٮ اں كاں على الهدى او امر ٮالٮڡوى
Je, unaona kama anaita uongo na kugeuka mgongo? Je, hajui kwamba Mungu anaona?
ارٮٮ اں كدٮ وٮولى الم ٮعلم ٮاں الله ٮرى
Siyo hivyo! Asipoacha, kwa yakini Tutamkamata kwa nguvu kwa kishungi cha nywele za paji, kishungi kimwongo na chenye kosa!
كلا لٮں لم ٮٮٮه لٮسڡعا ٮالٮاصٮه ٮاصٮه كدٮه حاطٮه
Kwa hiyo na aite kundi lake; Tutawaita walio Wetu.
ڡلٮدع ٮادٮه سٮدع الرٮاٮٮه
Siyo hivyo! Usimnyenyekee, lakini sujudu na ukaribie.
كلا لا ٮطعه واسحد واڡٮرٮ
