Surah Maryam
The
Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:
لَا
يَسْمَعُونَ
فِيهَا لَغْوًا
إِلَّا سَلَامًا...
19:62. They
will not there hear any vain discourse, but only salutations of
peace:
C2512. Salam, translated "Peace",
has a much wide signification. It includes;
- a
sense of security and permanence, which is unknown in this life;
- soundness,
freedom from defects, perfection as in the word salim;
- preservation,
salvation, deliverance, as in the word sallama,
- salutation,
accord with those around us;
- resignation,
in the sense that we are satisfied and not discontented;
- besides
the ordinary meaning of Peace, i.e., freedom from any jarring
element. All these shades of meaning are implied in the word Islam.
