سُبْحَانَ
الَّذِي
أَسْرَى
بِعَبْدِهِ
لَيْلًا
مِّنَ
الْمَسْجِدِ
الْحَرَامِ
إِلَى
الْمَسْجِدِ
الْأَقْصَى
الَّذِي
بَارَكْنَا
حَوْلَهُ
لِنُرِيَهُ
مِنْ
آيَاتِنَا
إِنَّهُ
هُوَ
السَّمِيعُ
الْبَصِيرُ

Immaculate is He who carried His servant on a journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque whose environs We have blessed, that We might show him some of Our signs. Indeed, He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).
