This is like the Ayah: بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِىٍّ مُّبِينٍ (In the plain Arabic language.) (26:195) وَإِنَّهُ فِى أُمِّ الْكِتَبِ لَدَيْنَا لَعَلِىٌّ حَكِيمٌ (And verily, it is in the Mother of the Book with Us, indeed exalted, full of wisdom.) This explains the high status of the Qur'an among the hosts on high (the angels), so that the people of earth will respect it, venerate it and obey it.…
