69. Haka · verses 36–44

وَلَا طَعَامٌ إِلَّا مِنۡ غِسۡلِينٖ

Wala taAAamun illa min ghisleenin

"Nor hath he any food except the corruption from the washing of wounds,

لَّا يَأۡكُلُهُۥٓ إِلَّا ٱلۡخَٰطِـُٔونَ

La yakuluhu illa alkhatioona

"Which none do eat but those in sin."

فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَا تُبۡصِرُونَ

Fala oqsimu bima tubsiroona

So I do call to witness what ye see,

وَمَا لَا تُبۡصِرُونَ

Wama la tubsiroona

And what ye see not,

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلُ رَسُولٖ كَرِيمٖ

Innahu laqawlu rasoolin kareemin

That this is verily the word of an honoured messenger;

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوۡلِ شَاعِرٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تُؤۡمِنُونَ

Wama huwa biqawli shaAAirin qaleelan ma tuminoona

وَلَا بِقَوۡلِ كَاهِنٖۚ قَلِيلٗا مَّا تَذَكَّرُونَ

Wala biqawli kahinin qaleelan ma tathakkaroona

Tanzeelun min rabbi alAAalameena

(This is) a Message sent down from the Lord of the Worlds.

وَلَوۡ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيۡنَا بَعۡضَ ٱلۡأَقَاوِيلِ

Walaw taqawwala AAalayna baAAda alaqaweeli

And if the messenger were to invent any sayings in Our name,
