74 - O Kaaba, the messengers circumambulated it *** after the honorable ones circumambulated it
75 - Then after them came a scholar who toured it from high to low
76 - He sent it down, for example, to His Throne*** and we are surrounded by it and honored
77 - If he says, “I am good, so do you listen?”
78 - By God, he did not bring a text nor did he come to us except what he does not explain
79 - Is that nothing but light surrounded by *** their lights, and we are a disgraceful water?
80 - Then a thing is attracted to something similar to it' And we are all His slaves
81 - Would they not have seen what they did not see? That they *** circumambulated what we circumambulated, and they were not Batin
82 - If the gentlest of us were stripped of it, he would be equal to the one they surrounded around
83 - They have contributed to being ignorant of the rights of those to whom God has subjected the worlds
84 - How could they know that I am the son of the one to whom they fell prostrate?
85 - After an objection to our father, they admitted that they were ignorant
86 - And Iblis is the person who refused *** and was one of the deniers who favored the virtue
87 - They have contributed' They have contributed' They have been protected from the mistakes of those who err
