Az-Zukhruf (Ornaments Of Gold, Luxury)
Verse 4
Translation:
4. And verily it is in the Mother of the Book in Our Presence high (in dignity) full of wisdom.
Notes (Tafseer):
4606. Cf. iii. 7, n. 347: and xiii. 39, n. 1864. The Mother of the Book, the Foundation of Revelation, the Preserved Tablet (Lauh Mahfuz. lxxxv. 22), is the core or essence of revelation, the original principle or fountain-head of Allah's Eternal and Universal Law. From this fountain-head are derived all streams of knowledge and wisdom, that flow through Time and feed the intelligence of created minds. The Mother of the Book is in Allah's own Presence, and its dignity and wisdom are more than all we can think of.
