Surah Al-'Alaq (The Clot)
Recite with the name of your Lord Who created,
He made man from the clot of blood,
Recite, for your Lord is the Most Generous,
Who taught writing by the pen.
Taught man what not.
Yes, undoubtedly, man transgresses.
Because, he thought himself self-sufficient.
Undoubtedly, unto your Lord is the return. Taught man what he knew
Well, you see him who forbids
A bondman of Ours when he offers prayer.
well, you see if he would have been on guidance,
Or he would have commanded piety, what a good thing it had been.
Well you see, if he belied and turned back, then what would be his condition.
Did he not know that Allah is seeing?
Yes, if he desisted not, We will assuredly drag him by catching his forelock hairs.
forelock of what type, lying, sinful.
Now let him call his association
Just now We call Our guards.
Yes, hear him not and prostrate and draw near to Us.

Al A'la (The Most High) is your all time favorite surah. The first ever long surah you memorized when you were 9. The one which always excites you whenever the Imam recites; simply because you can tag along. Yet, there are still many more that we need to understand and memorize. Reading alone is not enough. For The Quran is not a book of SCIENCE, my dearest son. It is the ultimate book of SIGNS.
