Surah Ash-Shu'ara — 26:193

نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْأَمِينُ

Nazala bihir Roohul Ameen

Apaçık Arap diliyle, uyaranlardan olman için onu Cebrail senin kalbine indirmiştir.

The trustworthy Spirit brought it down

Reflection

Naming the carrier settles a dispute about the channel rather than the content, and Ash-Shuʿarāʾ closes by ruling out the rival one with the same verb, denying that the devils descended with anything. Amīn is the adjective for someone a deposit can be left with, so the descent is described as a delivery that arrives unaltered. The Qur'an calls Jibril by this title only here.
