On the Horizons and Within
سَنُرِيهِمۡ ءَايَٰتِنَا فِي ٱلۡأٓفَاقِ وَفِيٓ أَنفُسِهِمۡ حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمۡ أَنَّهُ ٱلۡحَقُّۗ أَوَلَمۡ يَكۡفِ بِرَبِّكَ أَنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيۡءࣲ شَهِيدٌ ٥٣
We shall show them Our portents on the horizons and within themselves until it will be manifest unto them that it is the Truth. Doth not thy Lord suffice, since He is Witness over all things.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
We will show them Our signs on the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear that it is the truth.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this promises that proofs of the Qur’an’s truth will be shown both in the outer world and within man himself.
Reflect
Look today for a sign within yourself and in the universe.
