وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ٧
While he was in the highest part of the horizon:
وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَىٰ ٧
While he was in the highest part of the horizon:
ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّىٰ ٨
Then he approached and came closer,
فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَىٰ ٩
And was at a distance of but two bow-lengths or (even) nearer;
فَأَوْحَىٰ إِلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَىٰ ١٠
So did (Allah) convey the inspiration to His Servant- (conveyed) what He (meant) to convey.
مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَىٰ ١١
The (Prophet's) (mind and) heart in no way falsified that which he saw.
