Mankind - Sura #114 - Englishquran - Sura114

114. Mankind

THESE 6 MECCAN verses were revealed after the previous chapter on Dawn 113 and before its preceding one, Sincerity (OR [God's] Oneness) 112. This chapter likewise forms a prayer for times of anxiety, bringing God's presence to us in our trials.

NOTE the haunting rhyme in the Arabic, contrasted with the assonance in -a- in the previous chapter; the gossiping sound of the recurring "-as" rhyme here is not easily reproduced in English.

In the name of God, the Mercy-giving, the Merciful!

* SAY: "I take refuge with the Lord of Mankind,
* the King of Mankind,
* the God of Mankind,
* from the evil of the stealthy Whisperer
** who whispers in the breasts of Mankind,
* whether among sprites or Mankind.

THE END

Sadaqa Allah al-Adhim!
"Almighty God has spoken the Truth!"
