Surah 41. Ha-Mim, Ayah 33
| وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ قَوْلًا مِمَّنْ دَعَا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا وَقَالَ إِنَّنِي مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ |
| Transliteration | : | wa- man ah.san qawl(an) min man dacaa 'ilaa 'allaah wa- camila s.aalih.(an) wa- qaala 'inni -y min al- muslimen |
| Pickthall | : | And who is better in speech than him who prayeth unto his Lord and doeth right, and saith: Lo! I am of those who surrender (unto Him). |
| Asad | : | And who could be better of speech than he who calls [his fellow-men] unto God, and does what is just and right, and says, "Verily, I am of those who have surrendered themselves to God"? |
| Malik | : | Who is better in speech than the one who calls people towards Allah, does good deeds and says: "I am a Muslim?" |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Who is better in speech than one who calls (men) to Allah works righteousness and says "I am of those who bow in Islam"? 4503 |
Note - 4503Better in speech: i.e., speaks better counsel; or is more
worthy of being listened to. That his word reaches the
highest mark of human speech is evidenced by three facts:
(1) that he calls all to the Truth of Allah, showing that
his thoughts are not centred on himself; (2) every deed
of his is righteousness, showing that there is no
divergence between his preaching and his conduct; and (3)
he completely associates himself with the Will of Allah,
showing that he is the full embodiment of Islam. What a
fine description of the holy Prophet!
