| Pickthall | : | Your comrade erreth not, nor is deceived; |

Note - 5086"Your Companion" is the holy Prophet Muhammad, who had
lived among the Quraish. He is defended from three kinds
of charges that the Unbelievers brought against him: (1)
that he was going astray, either through defect of
intelligence or through carelessness; (2) that he was
being misled or deceived by evil spirits; and (3) that he
spoke out of a whim or impulse, or from a selfish desire
to impress his own personality. None of these charges
were true. On the contrary he had direct inspiration from
Allah.
