The Certain Truth

إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَهُوَ حَقُّ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ۝٩٥

Lo! this is certain truth.

Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall

Meaning

Indeed, this is the certain truth.

Insight

According to Elmalılı, this is not only certainty by knowledge (‘ilm al-yaqin) or by sight (‘ayn al-yaqin), but certainty by experience (haqq al-yaqin); they will remain within it.

Reflect

Learn a truth you know today by living it.
