Chapter 81, Page 586, Juz 30

15. I swear by the planets 16. that recede, move, and hide, 17. by the night that descends, 18. by the dawn that softly breathes: 19. this is the speech of a noble messenger, 20. who possesses great strength and is held in honour by the Lord of the Throne–– 21. he is obeyed there and worthy of trust. 22. Your companion is not mad: 23. he did see him on the clear horizon. 24. He does not withhold what is revealed to him from beyond. 25. This is not the word of an outcast devil. 26. So where are you [people] going? 27. This is a message for all people; 28. for those who wish to take the straight path. 29. But you will only wish to do so by the will of God, the Lord of all people.

- M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
