Explanatory translation
1Listen, O humankind! These verses are a matchless miracle in both their recitation and their meaning. Give ear to this message, which is made up of letters you know very well, such as Nun, one of the letters of your own language. By the pen, which symbolizes the light of divine revelation, and by what those who write down the truths with it, line by line, have written!
