We sent it down on the Night of Glory

What will explain to you what that Night of Glory is

The Night of Glory is better than a thousand months

on that night the angels and the Spirit descend again and again with their Lord’s permission on every task

[there is] peace that night until the break of dawn

Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters were not about to change their ways until they were sent clear evidence

a messenger from God, reading out pages [blessed with] purity

containing true scriptures

[Yet] those who were given the Scripture became divided only after they were sent [such] clear evi-dence

though all they are ordered to do is worship God alone, sincerely devoting their religion to Him as people of true faith, keep up the prayer, and pay the prescribed alms, for that is the true religion

Those who disbelieve among the People of the Book and the idolaters will have the Fire of Hell, there to remain. They are the worst of creation

Those who believe and do good deeds are the best of creation
