فَأَوۡحَىٰٓ إِلَىٰ عَبۡدِهِۦ مَآ أَوۡحَىٰ
Faawha ila AAabdihi ma awha
So did (Allah) convey the inspiration to His Servant- (conveyed) what He (meant) to convey.
53. Nexhm · verses 10–23
سورة الـنحـممَا كَذَبَ ٱلۡفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَىٰٓ
Ma kathaba alfuadu ma raa
The (Prophet´s) (mind and) heart in no way falsified that which he saw.
أَفَتُمَٰرُونَهُۥ عَلَىٰ مَا يَرَىٰ
Afatumaroonahu AAala ma yara
Will ye then dispute with him concerning what he saw?
وَلَقَدۡ رَءَاهُ نَزۡلَةً أُخۡرَىٰ
Walaqad raahu nazlatan okhra
For indeed he saw him at a second descent,
عِندَ سِدۡرَةِ ٱلۡمُنتَهَىٰ
AAinda sidrati almuntaha
Near the Lote-tree beyond which none may pass:
عِندَهَا جَنَّةُ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰٓ
AAindaha jannatu almawa
Near it is the Garden of Abode.
إِذۡ يَغۡشَى ٱلسِّدۡرَةَ مَا يَغۡشَىٰ
Ith yaghsha alssidrata ma yaghsha
Behold, the Lote-tree was shrouded (in mystery unspeakable!)
مَا زَاغَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَىٰ
Ma zagha albasaru wama tagha
(His) sight never swerved, nor did it go wrong!
لَقَدۡ رَأَىٰ مِنۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰٓ
Laqad raa min ayati rabbihi alkubra
For truly did he see, of the Signs of his Lord, the Greatest!
أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱللَّٰتَ وَٱلۡعُزَّىٰ
Afaraaytumu allata waalAAuzza
Have ye seen Lat. and ´Uzza,
وَمَنَوٰةَ ٱلثَّالِثَةَ ٱلۡأُخۡرَىٰٓ
Wamanata alththalithata alokhra
And another, the third (goddess), Manat?
أَلَكُمُ ٱلذَّكَرُ وَلَهُ ٱلۡأُنثَىٰ
Alakumu alththakaru walahu alontha
What! for you the male sex, and for Him, the female?
تِلۡكَ إِذٗا قِسۡمَةٞ ضِيزَىٰٓ
Tilka ithan qismatun deeza
Behold, such would be indeed a division most unfair!
إِنۡ هِيَ إِلَّآ أَسۡمَآءٞ سَمَّيۡتُمُوهَآ أَنتُمۡ وَءَابَآؤُكُم مَّآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ بِهَا مِن سُلۡطَٰنٍۚ إِن يَتَّبِعُونَ إِلَّا ٱلظَّنَّ وَمَا تَهۡوَى ٱلۡأَنفُسُۖ وَلَقَدۡ جَآءَهُم مِّن رَّبِّهِمُ ٱلۡهُدَىٰٓ
In hiya illa asmaon sammaytumooha antum waabaokum ma anzala Allahu biha min sultanin in yattabiAAoona illa alththanna wama tahwa alanfusu walaqad jaahum min rabbihimu alhuda
These are nothing but names which ye have devised,- ye and your fathers,- for which Allah has sent down no authority (whatever). They follow nothing but conjecture and what their own souls desire!- Even though there has already come to them Guidance from their Lord!
