Surah Info

۟ۙ

By the star when it goes down to set,
۟ۚ
your fellow (the Holy Prophet) has neither missed the way, nor did he deviate.
۟ؕ
He does not speak out of (his own) desire.
۟ۙ
It is but revelation revealed (to him).
۟ۙ
It is taught to him by one (angel) of strong faculties,
۟ۙ
the one of vigour. So he stood poised,
۟ؕ
while he was on the upper horizon.
۟ۙ
Then he drew near, and came down,
۟ۚ
so as he was at a distance like that of two bows (joined together), rather even nearer.
۟ؕ
Thus He (Allah) revealed to His slave what He revealed.
۟
The heart did not err in what he saw.
۟
Do you quarrel with him in what he sees?
۟ۙ
Indeed he saw him another time
۟
by Sidrat-ul-Muntahā (the lote-tree in the upper realm),
۟ؕ
near which there is Jannat-ul-Ma’wā (the Paradise of Abode),
۟ۙ
when the lote-tree was covered by that which covered it.
۟
The eye neither went wrong, nor did exceed the limit.
۟
He has indeed seen a part of the biggest signs of your Lord.
