Salam.
I don't know, if i asked this before but maybe someone with better Arabic then mine can tell me what is 53:1-18 talking about? I mean, i got some idea what is it talking about but is it what i think it is?
Did Muhammad travel to Paradise and see it?
53:1 As the star descended.
53:2 Your friend was not astray, nor was he deceived.
53:3 Nor does he speak from personal desire.
53:4 It is a divine inspiration.
53:5 He has been taught by One mighty in power.
53:6 Free from any defect, he became stable.
53:7 While he was at the highest horizon.
53:8 Then he drew nearer by moving down.
53:9 Until he became as near as two bow-lengths or nearer.
53:10 He then conveyed the inspiration to His servant what was to be revealed.
53:11 The heart did not invent what it saw.
53:12 Do you doubt him in what he saw?
53:13 And indeed, he saw him in another descent.
53:14 At the ultimate point.
53:15 Near it is the eternal Paradise.
53:16 The whole place was overwhelmed.
53:17 The eyes did not waver, nor go blind.
53:18 He has seen from the great signs of his Lord.
Is this saying that Gabriel came down to Muhammad and Muhammad saw Gabriel and then Muhammad also saw the Paradise?
Because i know that The God sends Gabriel to human messengers to tell the humans what they need to know, right?
I really wanna know this.
Peace.
