17. Surah al-Israa, Mecca 50

The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:



وَلاَ تَمْشِ فِي الأَرْضِ مَرَحًا...   

17: 37.  Nor walk on the earth with insolence:

C2223. Insolence, or arrogance, or undue elation at our powers or capacities, is the first step to many evils. Besides, it is unjustified.

All our gifts are from Allah.


Others version:

17: 37

Pickthall And walk not in the earth exultant. Lo! thou canst not rend the earth, nor canst thou stretch to the height of the hills.


Yuksel 17:37 Do not walk in the land arrogantly, for you will not penetrate the earth, nor will you reach the mountains in height.



Transliteration Wa la_ tamsyi fil ardi maraha_(n), innaka lan takhriqal arda wa lan tablugal jiba_la tu_la_(n).

[[Ali’s note - 2223 Insolence, or arrogance, or undue elation at our powers or capacities, is the first step to many evils. Besides, it is unjustified. All our gifts are from Allah. (17.37)]]
