Most Wise.

P: And it was not (vouchsafed) to any mortal that Allah should speak to

Y: And thus have We, by Our Command, sent inspiration to thee: thou
knewest not (before) what was Revelation, and what was Faith; but We

P: And thus have We inspired in thee (Muhammad) a Spirit of Our command.
Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. But We
have made it a light whereby We guide whom We will of Our bondmen. And
lo! thou verily dost guide unto a right path,

S: And thus did We reveal to you an inspired book by Our command. You
did not know what the Book was, nor (what) the faith (was), but We made
it a light, guiding thereby whom We please of Our servants; and most

and whatsoever is in the earth. Do not all things reach Allah at last?

S: The path of Allah, Whose is whatsoever is in the heavens and
whatsoever is in the earth; now surely to Allah do all affairs
eventually come.
