Surah 112: TauhidTauhid
If you don’t know me, my name is Rachel, and these are my scripture notes on the Quran. The ayat are presented sequentially in English and Arabic, followed by my commentary. Think of it as a living midrash: whenever I learn something new, I add a note. My notes draw from an eclectic range of ancient sources, both Jewish and Gentile. See my about page for more.
I’ve used Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall’s 1930 translation of the Quran’s meanings since it’s both public domain and very pretty.

1Say: He is Allah, the One! 2Allah, the eternally Besought of all! 3He begetteth not nor was begotten. 4And there is none comparable unto Him.
1بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ قُلْ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ 2ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ 3لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ 4وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌۢ
