Surah 2. Al-Baqara, Ayah 37
| فَتَلَقَّىٰ آدَمُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ |
| Transliteration | : | fa- talaqqaa 'aadam min rabb -hi kalimaat fa- taaba calay -hi 'inna -hu huwa at- tawwaab ar- rah.em |
| Pickthall | : | Then Adam received from his Lord words (of revelation), and He relented toward him. Lo! He is the Relenting, the Merciful. |
| Asad | : | Thereupon Adam received words [of guidance] from his Sustainer, and He accepted his repentance: for, verily, He alone is the Acceptor of Repentance, the Dispenser of Grace. |
| Malik | : | Then Adam received appropriate words from his Rabb and repented, and Allah accepted his repentance. Surely Allah is the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration and his Lord turned toward him; for He is Oft-Returning Most Merciful. 55 |
Note - 55As "names" in verse 31 above is used for the "nature of
things", so "words" here mean "inspiration" "spiritual
knowledge". The Arabic word used for "learn" here
implies some effort on his part to which God's Grace
responded.
