Sura-27 [An Naml Mecca 48]


The Quranic Text & Ali’s version:


Asad’s Version:




27:91 [SAY, O Muhammad:] "I have been bidden to worship the Sustainer of this City 82 - Him who has made it sacred, and unto whom all things belong; and I have been bidden to be of those who surrender themselves to Him,


(27:92) and to convey this Qur'an [to the world]." Whoever, therefore, chooses to follow the right path, follows it but for his own good; and if any wills to go astray, say [unto him]: "I am only a warner!"


27:93


And say: "All praise is due to God! In time He will make you see [the truth of] His messages, and then you shall know them [for what they are]." And thy Sustainer is not unmindful of whatever you all may do.



[[ Asad’s notes - 82 I.e., Mecca, where the first temple dedicated to the One God was built (cf. 3:96). ]]
