006.075 Y:  So also did We show Abraham the power and the laws of the heavens and the earth, that he might (with understanding) have certitude.

P:  Thus did We show Abraham the kingdom of the heavens and the earth that he might be of those possessing certainty: 

S:  And thus did We show Ibrahim the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and that he might be of those who are sure.

006.076 Y:  When the night covered him over, He saw a star:  He said:  “This is my Lord.”  But when it set, He said:  “I love not those that set.”

P:  When the night grew dark upon him he beheld a star.  He said:  This is my Lord.  But when it set, he said:  I love not things that set.

S:  So when the night over-shadowed him, he saw a star; said he:  Is this my Lord?  So when it set, he said:  I do not love the setting ones.

006.077 Y:  When he saw the moon rising in splendour, he said:  “This is my Lord.”  But when the moon set, He said:  “unless my Lord guide me, I shall surely be among those who go astray.”

P:  And when he saw the moon uprising, he exclaimed:  This is my Lord.  But when it set, he said:  Unless my Lord guide me, I surely shall become one of the folk who are astray.

S:  Then when he saw the moon rising, he said:  Is this my Lord?  So when it set, he said:  If my Lord had not guided me I should certainly be of the erring people.

006.078 Y:  When he saw the sun rising in splendour, he said:  “This is my Lord; this is the greatest (of all).”  But when the sun set, he said:  “O my people!  I am indeed free from your (guilt) of giving partners to Allah.”

P:  And when he saw the sun uprising, he cried:  This is my Lord!  This is greater!  And when it set he exclaimed:  O my people!  Lo!  I am free from all that ye associate (with Him).

S:  Then when he saw the sun rising, he said:  Is this my Lord?  Is this the greatest?  So when it set, he said:  O my people! surely I am clear of what you set up (with Allah).

006.079 Y:  “For me, I have set my face, firmly and truly, towards Him Who created the heavens and the earth, and never shall I give partners to Allah.”

P:  Lo!  I have turned my face toward Him Who created the heavens and the earth, as one by nature upright, and I am not of the idolaters.

S:  Surely I have turned myself, being upright, wholly to Him Who originated the heavens and the earth, and I am not of the polytheists.

006.080 Y:  His people disputed with him.  He said:  “(Come) ye to dispute with me, about Allah, when He (Himself) hath guided me?  I fear not (the beings) ye associate with Allah:  Unless my Lord willeth, (nothing can happen).  My Lord comprehendeth in His knowledge all things.  Will ye not (yourselves) be admonished?”

P:  His people argued with him.  He said:  Dispute ye with me concerning Allah when He hath guided me?  I fear not at all that which ye set up beside Him unless my Lord willeth aught.  My Lord includeth all things in His knowledge.  Will ye not then remember?
