وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَيْكَ رُوحًا مِّنْ أَمْرِنَا ۚ مَا كُنتَ تَدْرِى مَا ٱلْكِتَـٰبُ وَلَا ٱلْإِيمَـٰنُ وَلَـٰكِن جَعَلْنَـٰهُ نُورًا نَّهْدِى بِهِۦ مَن نَّشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ۚ وَإِنَّكَ لَتَهْدِىٓ إِلَىٰ صِرَٰطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

TRANSLITERATION

Wakadhālika awḥaynā ilayka rūḥam min amrinā, mā kunta tadrī mal-kitābu walal-īmānu walākin jaʿalnāhu nūran nahdī bihī man nashāʾu min ʿibādinā, waʾinnaka latahdī ilā ṣirāṭim mustaqīm

ENGLISH TRANSLATION · TALAL ITANI

We thus inspired you spiritually, by Our command. You did not know what the Scripture is, nor what faith is, but We made it a light, with which We guide whomever We will of Our servants. You surely guide to a straight path.
