1
I swear by the star when it goes down.
2
Your companion does not err, nor does he go astray;
3
Nor does he speak out of desire.
4
It is naught but revelation that is revealed,
5
The Lord of Mighty Power has taught him,
6
The Lord of Strength; so he attained completion,
7
And he is in the highest part of the horizon.
8
Then he drew near, then he bowed
9
So he was the measure of two bows or closer still.
10
And He revealed to His servant what He revealed.
11
The heart was not untrue in (making him see) what hesaw.
12
What! do you then dispute with him as to what he saw?
13
And certainly he saw him in another descent,
14
At the farthest lote-tree;
15
Near which is the garden, the place to be resorted to.
16
When that which covers covered the lote-tree;
17
The eye did not turn aside, nor did it exceed the limit.
18
Certainly he saw of the greatest signs of his Lord.
19
Have you then considered the Lat and the Uzza,
20
And Manat, the third, the last?
21
What! for you the males and for Him the females!
22
This indeed is an unjust division!
23
They are naught but names which you have named, you andyour fathers; Allah has not sent for them any authority.They follow naught but conjecture and the low desires which(their) souls incline to; and certainly the guidance hascome to them from their Lord.
24
Or shall man have what he wishes?
25
Nay! for Allah is the hereafter and the former (life).
26
And how many an angel is there in the heavens whoseintercession does not avail at all except after Allah hasgiven permission to whom He pleases and chooses.
27
Most surely they who do not believe in the hereaftername the angels with female names.
28
And they have no knowledge of it; they do not followanything but conjecture, and surely conjecture does notavail against the truth at all.
29
Therefore turn aside from him who turns his back uponOur reminder and does not desire anything but this world'slife.
30
That is their goal of knowledge; surely your Lord knowsbest him who goes astray from His path and He knows best himwho follows the right direction.
