فِى مَقْعَدِ صِدْقٍ عِندَ مَلِيكٍ مُّقْتَدِرٍۭ
Fee maqAAadi s idqin AAinda maleekin muqtadir in
in a seat of truth, in the presence of a Sovereign who determines all things....
  - Mohammad Asad
a place of true honor, in the presence of Almighty Sovereign.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
at the Seat of Honour in the presence of the Most Powerful Sovereign.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Firmly established in the favor of a Mighty King.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
In an Assembly of Truth in the Presence of a Sovereign Omnipotent. 5169 5170 5171
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

While we possess our bodily senses, the best conceptions we can form are through our sense-perceptions.

But there is a higher conception still, something that it can only be expressed by reference to the Presence of Allah,

Muqtadir, which is translated Omnipotent, implies something more: the eighth- declension form denotes not only complete mastery, but the further idea that the mastery arises from Allah's own nature, and depends on nothing else whatever.
