27. Al-Naml (Ant )Mecca 48

The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:


وَإِنَّكَ لَتُلَقَّى الْقُرْآنَ مِن لَّدُنْ حَكِيمٍ عَلِيمٍ ﴿٦﴾

27:6. As to thee, the Qur'án is bestowed upon thee from the presence of One Who is Wise and All-Knowing.



Asad’s Version:

(27:6) But [as for thee, O believer,] verily, thou hast received this Qur'an out of the grace of One who is wise, all-knowing. 5


[[Asad’s note - 5 This stress on the spiritual illumination offered to man through divine revelation not only connects with the opening verses of this surah, but also forms a link between this passage and the following one, which calls to mind the sudden illumination of Moses, symbolized by the vision of the burning bush.]]
