Ash-Shuraa 42:52 وكذالك اوحينا اليك روحا من امرنا ما كنت تدري ما الكتاب ولا الايمان ولاكن جعلناه نورا نهدي به من نشاء من عبادنا وانك لتهدي الى صراط مستقيم ٥٢
وَكَذَٰلِكَ
أَوۡحَيۡنَآ
إِلَيۡكَ
رُوحٗا
مِّنۡ
أَمۡرِنَاۚ
مَا
كُنتَ
تَدۡرِي
مَا
ٱلۡكِتَٰبُ
وَلَا
ٱلۡإِيمَٰنُ
وَلَٰكِن
جَعَلۡنَٰهُ
نُورٗا
نَّهۡدِي
بِهِۦ
مَن
نَّشَآءُ
مِنۡ
عِبَادِنَاۚ
وَإِنَّكَ
لَتَهۡدِيٓ
إِلَىٰ
صِرَٰطٖ
مُّسۡتَقِيمٖ
