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.

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