| Asad | NAY, I call to witness the coming-down in parts [of this Quran] [Or: "the setting [or "orbiting"] of the stars". The term mawqi (of which mawaqie is the plural) denotes the "time [or "place" or "manner"] at which something comes down". Although many of the commentators think that the phrase mawaqi an-nujum relates to the break-up of the stars at the Last Hour, Ibn Abbas, lkrimah and As-Suddi were definitely of the opinion, strongly supported by the subsequent verses, that this phrase refers to the step-by-step revelation - or "coming-down in parts (nujum )" - of the Quran (cf. Tabari and lbn Kathir; see also note on 53:1). By "calling to witness" the gradual manner of its revelation, the Quran points implicitly to the astounding fact that it has remained free of all inconsistencies and inner contradictions (cf. 4:82 and the corresponding note) despite all the dramatic changes in the Prophet's life during the twenty-three years of the "unfolding" of the divine writ: and this explains, too, the subsequent parenthetic clause (verse 76).] - | ||||||
| Khalifa** | I swear by the positions of the stars. | ||||||
| Hilali/Khan** | So I swear by Mawaqi (setting or the mansions, etc.) of the stars (they traverse). | ||||||
| QXP Shabbir Ahemd** | Nay, I present the stellar orbits as witness. ('Mawaqi' = Different locations in the orbits). | ||||||
