Taa-Haa 20:8

What It Means: Reading in Context

This verse affirms Allah’s oneness and attributes the most beautiful names to Him. The distinctive English wording is Pickthall’s as displayed by the linked source; it has not been silently rewritten. It follows 20:7’s statement about divine knowledge. No special recitation count is prescribed by this entry. This entry presents Qur’an 20:8 from Surah Taa-Haa, with Arabic text and Marmaduke Pickthall’s English translation. The translation conveys meaning in English; it is not a replacement for the Arabic Qur’an. Read the linked passage with the verses before and after it, particularly when a sentence continues across verse boundaries. The topics shown here are editorial reading aids rather than an exhaustive interpretation of the passage. Our short reflection offers a possible practical response, clearly separated from scripture. It should not be repeated as a verse, hadith or authoritative tafsir. For detailed interpretation or questions about religious practice, consult qualified scholarship and the complete source.
