Eğer Peygamberi, biz bir melek yapsaydık, yine de onu bir adam şeklinde yapardık ve onları yine düştükleri kuşkuya düşürürdük.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazır · TR · public-domain

Onu (peygamberi) bir melek kılsaydık şüphesiz ki onu bir erkek (insan suretinde) yapar, düşmekte oldukları kuşkuya onları yine düşürürdük.

Had we appointed him (Our messenger) an angel, We assuredly had made him (as) a man (that he might speak to men); and (thus) obscured for them (the truth) they (now) obscure.
