11:1

الۤر كِتَابٌ أُحْكِمَتْ آيَاتُهُ ثُمَّ فُصِّلَتْ مِن لَّدُنْ حَكِيمٍ خَبِيرٍ

 

alif-lam-ra kitābun uḥ`kimat āyātuhu thumma fuṣṣilat min ladun ḥakīmin khabīrin

 

The Aya says:

Alif Lam Ra, a book whose verses/ signs were well constructed then detailed from behalf of a wise well informed one.

 

My personal note:

The three letters it starts with are of unknown significance but may relate to some mathematics as suggested by some.  The Aya explains that this book was well constructed and well detailed and it’s source is from the wise well informed one and that is Allah.

 

Tranlation of the transliterated words:

alif-lam-ra: A-L-R

Note: Those are three letters of the alphabet and the significance is not clear.

Kitābun: a book/ a document/ a register

Note: the root K-T-B and it means putting things together as in grouping the herd together or closing the lips or writing (the most common use), because in writing, one puts the letters and the ideas together. KITABUN means, the process of writing or the book or anything related to it from the ideas to the ink and paper to the place where all is put together.  In short a book or a document or a register

 

uḥ`kimat: Were well made/ Were perfected

Note: the root Ha-K-M and it means the steer that steers the animal. This word is used for ruling and judging as well as other meanings that contain steering as part of the concept.  UHKIMAT is an action that is completed.  It means: the action of perfecting or well making the object (Ayatuhu=his signs) happened by an undeclared subject.

Āyātuhu: His signs

Note: AYAT is derived from the root Hamza-Y-H and it means sign. AYATU means signs of.  HU means him and points to the book.

 

Thumma: then

fuṣṣilat: detailed/ Well differentiated

Note: the root is F-Sad-L and it means what makes the two things or more distinguishable from one another. This can be because of separation or because of joint or change of color or angle and so on. The action is more of distinction. FUSSILAT is an action that is derived from the root. The action is completed. It means that the action of distinguishing or detailing of the object (ALAYATI= the signis)happened by the subject (undeclared).

Min: from

Ladun: behalf of

Note: LADUN means at and it points to place or time or others.

ḥakīmin: a wise one

Note: the root Ha-K-M and it means the steer that steers the animal. This word is used for ruling and judging as well as other meanings that contain steering as part of the concept.  HAKIM is a wise one or the one who makes great decisions.

Khabīrin: a knowledgeable one/ well informed

Note: the root is KH-B-R and it means information or informing. KHABEER is the one that is well informed and who informs others as well.

 

Salaam all and have a great day
