ٱلْقَمَر : ٥٠

  • وَمَآ And not
  • أَمۡرُنَآ (is) Our Command
  • إِلَّا but
  • وَٰحِدَةٞ one
  • كَلَمۡحِ like the twinkling
  • بِٱلۡبَصَرِ (of) the eye
And Our command is but one, like a glance of the eye.
And Our command, for a thing which We want to bring into existence, is but a single word, like the twinkling of an eye, in terms of speed, and this is the saying of kun, 'Be', whereat it comes into existence. His command, when He wills a thing, is just to say to it 'Be', and it is [Q. 36:82].
