Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 7 496 I have announced publicly many times for any such truth to be presented that we cannot extract from the Holy Quran. 1 َو اَل ٍبْطَر َّو اَل ٍسِباَي اَّلِا ْيِف ٍبٰتِك ٍنْيِبُّم َو اَل ٍبْطَر َّو اَل ٍسِباَي اَّلِا ْيِف ٍبٰتِك ٍنْيِبُّم It is a boundless ocean in terms of its verities and insights and in the form of its eloquence and fluency. Had it been the com- pilation of man, it would have exposed a pattern of superficial whims, but its style is unique and altogether different and dis- tinct from human styles. Despite its lofty themes, it has abso- lutely no affectation or ostentation. It claims that it is for the unlettered. And yet the amazing fact is that, while on the sur- face it is for the unlettered, its core can satiate everyone. The Wisdom of Repetition in S u rah ar-Ra h m a n Khaw a ja [Kam a l-ud-D i n] Sahib asked why there is repetition in S u rah ar-Ra h m a n. The Promised Messiah as said: This kind of assiduous unremitting speech is a distinctive hall- mark of the Word of Allah the Exalted. It is in the nature of man that he can memorize rhythmical words quickly. That is indeed why He has said: 2 َو ْدَقَل اَنْرَّسَي َنٰاْرُقْلا ِرْكِّذلِل َو ْدَقَل اَنْرَّسَي َنٰاْرُقْلا ِرْكِّذلِل 1. (Nor is there a grain in the deep darkness of the earth), nor anything green or dry, but is recorded in a clear Book ( S u rah al-An‘ a m, 6:60). [Publisher] 2. S u rah al-Qamar, 54:18 [Publisher]
