53 : 1

Yusuf Ali
By the Star when it goes down,-

53 : 2

Yusuf Ali
Your Companion is neither astray nor being misled.

53 : 3

Yusuf Ali
Nor does he say (aught) of (his own) Desire.

53 : 4

Yusuf Ali
It is no less than inspiration sent down to him:

53 : 5

Yusuf Ali
He was taught by one Mighty in Power,

53 : 6

Yusuf Ali
Endued with Wisdom: for he appeared (in stately form);

53 : 7

Yusuf Ali
While he was in the highest part of the horizon:

53 : 8

Yusuf Ali
Then he approached and came closer,

53 : 9

Yusuf Ali
And was at a distance of but two bow-lengths or (even) nearer;

53 : 10

Yusuf Ali
So did (Allah) convey the inspiration to His Servant- (conveyed) what He (meant) to convey.

53 : 11

Yusuf Ali
The (Prophet´s) (mind and) heart in no way falsified that which he saw.

53 : 12

Yusuf Ali
Will ye then dispute with him concerning what he saw?

53 : 13

Yusuf Ali
For indeed he saw him at a second descent,

53 : 14

Yusuf Ali
Near the Lote-tree beyond which none may pass:

53 : 15

Yusuf Ali
Near it is the Garden of Abode.

53 : 16

Yusuf Ali
Behold, the Lote-tree was shrouded (in mystery unspeakable!)

53 : 17

Yusuf Ali
(His) sight never swerved, nor did it go wrong!

53 : 18

Yusuf Ali
For truly did he see, of the Signs of his Lord, the Greatest!

53 : 19

Yusuf Ali
Have ye seen Lat. and ´Uzza,

53 : 20

Yusuf Ali
And another, the third (goddess), Manat?
