مَا كَذَبَ ٱلۡفُؤَادُ مَا رَأَىٰٓ
The heart did not lie [about] what it saw.
أَفَتُمَٰرُونَهُۥ عَلَىٰ مَا يَرَىٰ
So will you dispute with him over what he saw?
وَلَقَدۡ رَءَاهُ نَزۡلَةً أُخۡرَىٰ
And he certainly saw him in another descent
عِندَ سِدۡرَةِ ٱلۡمُنتَهَىٰ
At the Lote Tree of the Utmost Boundary -
عِندَهَا جَنَّةُ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰٓ
Near it is the Garden of Refuge -
إِذۡ يَغۡشَى ٱلسِّدۡرَةَ مَا يَغۡشَىٰ
When there covered the Lote Tree that which covered [it].
مَا زَاغَ ٱلۡبَصَرُ وَمَا طَغَىٰ
The sight [of the Prophet] did not swerve, nor did it transgress [its limit].
لَقَدۡ رَأَىٰ مِنۡ ءَايَٰتِ رَبِّهِ ٱلۡكُبۡرَىٰٓ
He certainly saw of the greatest signs of his Lord.
أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱللَّـٰتَ وَٱلۡعُزَّىٰ
So have you considered al-Lat and al-'Uzza?
وَمَنَوٰةَ ٱلثَّالِثَةَ ٱلۡأُخۡرَىٰٓ
And Manat, the third - the other one?
