    M.M Pickthall 's translation of this particular verse in the glorious quran...

    "He is the First and the Last, and the Outward and the Inward; and He is Knower of all things."

    i think that is an inaccurate translation. because my understanding of the quran is that God is no in you but rather God is with you

    May Allah guide us all to the clear truth....

      Salaam Mr. Deen. 573 He is the first and the last, He is the open and the hidden, and He has knowledge of all things.

      Allah Is mighty wise.

        I'm still not sure about the translation here.

        Could first and last be, eternal, and the following statements, a similar use of words, to give another meaning. Possibly to do with how he knows all things.
        Maybe understood with regards to verses about being The Creator, The Sustainer.

        Maybe.. He is the eternal, the all-controller, he has knowledge of all affairs.

          mr. deen. did you notice something.

          i went as far as allah went. no more, no less.

          having read the quran, where it says adding words to the quran will result in years added to life in hell, i advise the following caution.

          please dont add the word eternal.

          allah is the truth.

            Salaam,

            This is indeed a very good advice for all of us here... and anywhere else...

            Regards

              I am not adding anything. Just airing my views on certain things. Comments welcome.

                salam mr deen. inshallah allah may bless us both. bless you for asking an honest question and remaing open through the process, and bless me as being the instrument by which he evolves your ability to comprehend.

                allah is the one who raises mankind by stages.

                    I think I'm just going to accept Yusuf Ali's translation here. Yusuf Ali He is the First and the Last, the Evident and the Immanent and He has full knowledge of all things.
