¹⁹ That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger,
²⁰ Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne,
²¹ (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy;
²² And your comrade is not mad.
²³ Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon.^[1]
24 And he is not avid of the Unseen.
²⁵ Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned.
²⁶ Whither then go ye?
²⁷ This is naught else than a reminder unto creation,
²⁸ Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.
²⁹ And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation.
