وَهُوَ بِالْأُفُقِ الْأَعْلَىٰ
7. While he was in the higher [part of the] horizon.
ثُمَّ دَنَا فَتَدَلَّىٰ
8. Then he approached and descended
فَكَانَ قَابَ قَوْسَيْنِ أَوْ أَدْنَىٰ
9. And was at a distance of two bow lengths or nearer.
فَأَوْحَىٰ إِلَىٰ عَبْدِهِ مَا أَوْحَىٰ
10. And he revealed to His Servant what he revealed.
مَا كَذَبَ الْفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَىٰ
11. The heart did not lie [about] what it saw.
أَفَتُمَارُونَهُ عَلَىٰ مَا يَرَىٰ
12. So will you dispute with him over what he saw?
وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ نَزْلَةً أُخْرَىٰ
13. And he certainly saw him in another descent
عِنْدَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَىٰ
14. At the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary -
عِنْدَهَا جَنَّةُ الْمَأْوَىٰ
15. Near it is the Garden of Refuge -
إِذْ يَغْشَى السِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَىٰ
16. When there covered the Lote Tree that which covered [it].
