193 Preface نَزَلَ بِهِ الرّوحُ الأَمينُYusuf AliWith it came down the spirit of Faith and Truth-1Al Ruh al Amin, the epithet of Gabriel, who came with the inspired Messages to the Holy Prophet, is difficult to render in a single epithet in translation. In n. 3187 to 26:107 I have described some of the various shades of meaning attached to the adjective Amin as applied to a Prophet. A further signification as attached to the Spirit of Inspiration is that it is the very quintessence of Faith and Truth, unlike the lying spirits which delude men with falsehood. On the whole, I think, “the Spirit of Faith and Truth” will best represent the original here.
