Al-Muddaththir 74:11
The Cloaked One · Meccan · Juz 29 · Page 575
Leave Me with the One I Created Alone
ذَرۡنِي وَمَنۡ خَلَقۡتُ وَحِيدࣰا ١١
Leave Me (to deal) with him whom I created lonely.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Leave Me with the one I created alone.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, “wahidan” has two meanings: the one I, as the sole Creator without partner, created; or the one I created all alone, with nothing.
Reflect
Remember that you came into the world alone and will return alone.
