Surah 7. Al-A'raf, Ayah 206
| إِنَّ الَّذِينَ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِهِ وَيُسَبِّحُونَهُ وَلَهُ يَسْجُدُونَ ۩ |
| Transliteration | : | 'inna 'alladhena cinda rabb -ka laa yastakbiron can cibaadah -hi wa- yusabbih.on -hu wa- la- -hu yasjudon |
| Pickthall | : | Lo! those who are with thy Lord are not too proud to do Him service, but they praise Him and adore Him. |
| Asad | : | Behold, those who are near unto thy Sustainer168 are never too proud to worship Him; and they extol His limitless glory, and prostrate themselves before Him [alone]. |
| Malik | : | Surely those who are close to your Rabb do not feel too proud to worship Him; they declare His glory and prostrate themselves before Him. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Those who are near to thy Lord disdain not to do Him worship: They celebrate His praises and bow down before Him. 1176 1177 |
Note - 168Lit., "those who are with thy Sustainer": a metaphorical
description of utter God-consciousness.
|
Note - 1176The higher you are in spiritual attainment, the more is
your desire and your opportunity to serve and worship
your Lord and Cherisher and the Lord and Cherisher of all
the worlds: and the greater is your pride in that service
and that worship.
|
Note - 1177At this stage a Sajda or prostration is indicated, as a
sign of our humble acceptance of the privilege of serving
and worshipping Allah,-a fitting close to Sura in which
we are led, through a contemplation of the stories of the
Messengers of Allah, to the meaning of revelation and its
relation to our moral and spiritual progress.
