Quote: {42:3} Thus has He revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and to those before you - God, the Exalted in Might, the Wise. I suggest, {42:3} Thus reveals to you, [O Muhammad], and to those before you - God, the Exalted in Might, the Wise. Quote: {42:4} To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great. I suggest, {42:4} To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth, and He is the Sublime, the Great. Quote: {42:5} The heavens almost break from above them, and the angels exalt [God] with praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on earth. Unquestionably, it is God who is the Forgiving, the Merciful. {42:5} The heavens almost break from above them, and the angels sanctify [God] with praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those in the earth. Unquestionably, it is God who is the oft Forgiving, the Merciful. Quote: {42:6} And those who take as allies other than Him - God is [yet] Guardian over them; and you, [O Muhammad], are not over them a manager. The above translation almost gives the impression that God protects those who associate others with Him! I suggest instead, {42:6} And those who take allies besides Him - God is keeping account above them; and you [, O Muhammad,] are not over them a manager. |
