Surah 65. At-Talaq, Ayah 12
| اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ وَمِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا |
| Transliteration | : | 'allaah 'alladhe khalaqa sabc samaawaat wa- min al- 'ard. mithl -hunna yatanazzal al- 'amr bayna -hunna li- taclamo 'anna 'allaah calaa kull shay' qader wa- 'anna 'allaah qad ah.aat.a bi- kull shay' cilm(an) |
| Pickthall | : | Allah it is who hath created seven heavens, and of the earth the like thereof. The commandment cometh down among them slowly, that ye may know that Allah is Able to do all things, and that Allah surroundeth all things in knowledge. |
| Asad | : | GOD is He who has created seven heavens,18 and, like them, [the many aspects] of the earth. Through all of them flows down from on high, unceasingly, His [creative] will,19 so that you might come to know that God has the power to will anything, and that God encompasses all things with His knowledge. |
| Malik | : | It is Allah Who has created seven heavens, and earths as many. His commandment descends through them, this is being explained to you, so that you may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah encompasses all things in His knowledge. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Allah is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah comprehends all things in (His) Knowledge. 5526 5527 5528 |
Note - 18See surah {2}, note [20].
|
Note - 19Lit., "the command". The verbal form yatanazzalu implies
recurrence and continuity; its combination with the noun
al-amr reflects the concept of God's unceasing creative
activity.
|
Note - 5526"Seven Firmaments." (Cf. ii. 29; xvii. 44; xxiii- 86; and
xli. 12.)
|
Note - 5527Literally: they are seven in number, each one separate
from the other.
|
Note - 5528But in all spheres of life and Creation, whatever
conception we are able to form of them, it is certain
that the Command or Law of Allah runs through them all,
for His knowledge and power extend through all things.
