The Soul at Peace

يَـٰٓأَيَّتُهَا ٱلنَّفۡسُ ٱلۡمُطۡمَئِنَّةُ ۝٢٧

But ah! thou soul at peace.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

O soul at peace!

Insight

According to Elmalılı, this call will come on that day. The soul at peace is one that has bound itself to its Lord through faith and obedience and found inner peace.

Reflect

Make time today for a remembrance that brings your heart peace.
