The Certain Truth

وَإِنَّهُۥ لَحَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ۝٥١

And lo! it is absolute truth.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

And indeed, it is the certain truth.

Insight

According to Elmalılı, far from being poetry, soothsaying or guesswork, the Qur’an is certainty by experience, higher even than certainty by knowledge and by sight.

Reflect

Reach certainty by living the Qur’an.
