لَنَزَّلْنَا

عَلَيْهِم

مِّنَ

السَّمَاءِ

مَلَكًا

رَّسُولًا

Say, ‘Had there been angels in the earth, walking around and residing [in it like humans do], We would have sent down to them an angel from the heaven as apostle.’

Ali Quli Qarai

Say, "If there were settled, on earth, angels walking about in peace and quiet, We should certainly have sent them down from the heavens an angel for a messenger."

Abdullah Yusufali
