Say, "Whoever is hostile to Gabriel-it is he who revealed it to your heart by God's leave, confirming what preceded it, and guidance and good news for the believers."
Did Gabriel or the Holy Spirit bring the revelation (2:97 vs 16:102)?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 2:97 All five name Gabriel as the one who brought it down. Itani has "it is he who revealed it to your heart by God's leave", and Rodwell has "hath caused the Koran to descend on thy heart".
- 02 16:102 All five name the Holy Spirit. Itani has "The Holy Spirit has brought it down from your Lord", and Pickthall has "The holy Spirit hath delivered it from thy Lord".
- 03 26:193 A third name for the bringer. Itani has "The Honest Spirit came down with it", Pickthall has "the True Spirit", and Palmer has "the Faithful Spirit".
- 04 26:194 The place it was brought to, in the same words as 2:97. At 26:194 Itani has "Upon your heart", and Pickthall has "Upon thy heart".
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
The question reads 2:97 and 16:102 as naming two different bringers of the revelation.
At 2:97 all five name Gabriel. Itani has "it is he who revealed it to your heart by God's leave". At 16:102 all five name the Holy Spirit. Itani has "The Holy Spirit has brought it down from your Lord". At 26:193 a third name is printed: Itani has "The Honest Spirit", and Palmer has "the Faithful Spirit".
The verses share their terms. 2:97 and 26:194 name the same place: Rodwell has "on thy heart" at 2:97, and Pickthall has "Upon thy heart" at 26:194. 2:97 says it came by God's leave; 16:102 says it came from your Lord.
None of the five renders a verse in this set that says, in one sentence, that Gabriel and the spirit are the same, and none says they are two. In a few verses outside this set Sale or Rodwell prints the name Gabriel beside the word spirit where the other four do not; that pairing is the translator's, not the shared wording.
So the renderings print one revelation, brought down to the heart, by God's leave, and they name its bringer as Gabriel at 2:97 and as a spirit at 16:102 and 26:193. They do not state in this set whether those are one bringer or two.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this rests on
Opens with 2:97, widening across 4 passages in all.
Easy-read
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.

Sag: „Wer (auch immer) ein Feind von Jibril ist, so hat er ihn (also den Quran) fürwahr mit Allahs Erlaubnis auf dein Herz herabkommen lassen, das bestätigend, was vor ihm (offenbart) war, und als Rechtleitung und frohe Botschaft für die Gläubigen.“
Πες (ω, Μωχάμμαντ, στους Εβραίους που έλεγαν ότι ο Τζιμπρίλ -Γαβριήλ- είναι ο εχθρός τους) ότι όποιος είναι εχθρός του Τζιμπρίλ, (ας μάθει ότι ο Τζιμπρίλ) είναι αυτός που το έφερε (το Κορ'άν) κάτω στην καρδιά σου, με την άδεια του Αλλάχ, το οποίο (Κορ'άν) επιβεβαιώνει αυτά που υπήρχαν πριν από αυτό (από Θεία Βιβλία) και αποτελεί καθοδήγηση και χαρμόσυνη είδηση για τους πιστούς.

Sema: Aliyekuwa ni adui wa Jibril, basi huyo ndiye aliyeiteremsha Qur'ani moyoni mwako kwa idhini ya Mwenyezi Mungu, inayothibitisha yaliyokuwa kabla yake, na ni uongofu na bishara njema kwa Waumini.
Säg: ”Den som är fiende till Gabriel [ska veta] att det är han som har förmedlat denna [Koran] till ditt hjärta, med Guds tillåtelse, som en bekräftelse på vad som fanns före den [från tidigare uppenbarelser] och som vägledning och glädjebudskap till de troende.
De ki: “Her kim Cebrâîl’e düşman ise, bilsin ki o, Allah’ın izni ile Kur’an’ı; önceki kitapları doğrulayıcı, Müminler için de bir hidayet rehberi ve müjde verici olarak senin kalbine indirmiştir.”
(اے نبی!) آپ کہہ دیجیئے : جو شخص جبریل کا دشمن ہے، تو بے شک اس نے اس (قرآن) کو آپ کے دل پر اللہ کے حکم سے اتارا ہے، جو اپنے سے پہلے کی کتاب کی تصدیق کرنے واﻻ اور مومنوں کو ہدایت اور خوشخبری دینے واﻻ ہے[1] (تو اللہ بھی اس کا دشمن ہے)۔

You will find them, of all mankind, the most eager for life, even more than the polytheists. Every one of them wishes he could live a thousand years; but to be granted a long life will not nudge him from the punishment. God is Seeing of what they do.
And thou wilt find them greediest of mankind for life and (greedier) than the idolaters. (Each) one of them would like to be allowed to live a thousand years. And to live (a thousand years) would be no means remove him from the doom. Allah is Seer of what they do
Why, thou wilt find them the greediest of men for life; and of those who associate others with God one would fain live for a thousand years,- but he will not be reprieved from punishment by being let live, for God seeth what they do
And thou wilt surely find them of all men most covetous of life, beyond even the polytheists. To be kept alive a thousand years might one of them desire: but that he may be preserved alive, shall no one reprieve himself from the punishment! And God seeth what they do

And whenever we change one verse for another,- God knows best what He sends down. They say, 'Thou art but a forger!' - Nay, most of them do not know
And when we change one (sign) verse for another, and God knoweth best what He revealeth, they say, "Thou art only a fabricator." Nay! but most of them have no knowledge
When We substitute in the Koran an abrogating verse in lieu of a verse abrogated, -- and God best knoweth the fitness of that which He revealeth, -- the infidels say, thou art only a forger of these verses: But the greater part of them know not truth from falsehood
16:102 — the verse above
وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّمَا يُعَلِّمُهُۥ بَشَرٌ لِّسَانُ ٱلَّذِى يُلْحِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ أَعْجَمِىٌّ وَهَٰذَا لِسَانٌ عَرَبِىٌّ مُّبِينٌ

We are well aware that they say, "It is a human being who is teaching him." But the tongue of him they allude to is foreign, while this is a clear Arabic tongue.
And We know well that they say: Only a man teacheth him. The speech of him at whom they falsely hint is outlandish, and this is clear Arabic speech
We knew that they said, 'It is only some mortal who teaches him.' - The tongue of him they lean towards is barbarous, and this is plain Arabic
We also know that they say, "Surely a certain person teacheth him." But the tongue of him at whom they hint is foreign, while this Koran is in the plain Arabic
We also know that they say, verily, a certain man teacheth him to compose the Koran. The tongue of the person unto whom they incline, is a foreign tongue; but this, wherein the Koran is written, is the perspicuous Arabic tongue

Those who do not believe in God's revelations-God will not guide them, and for them is a painful punishment.
Lo! those who disbelieve the revelations of Allah, Allah guideth them not and theirs will be a painful doom
Verily, those who believe not in God's signs, God will not guide them, and for them is grievous woe
As for those who believe not in the signs of God, God will not guide them, and a sore torment doth await them
Moreover as of those who believe not in the signs of God, God will not direct them, and they shall suffer a painful torment

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it1 of the 1 paragraphs signed with this study
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
The anchors are the two verses the question sets side by side, 2:97 and 16:102, and 26:193, which names the bringer a third way. 26:194 is added because it completes the sentence of 26:193 and names the same place as 2:97. The probe 'Gabriel' returns 26 rows at 13 verses; all five renderings print the name at three of them, one being 2:97, and at the other ten only one or two renderings print it. The probe 'Holy Spirit|Holy Ghost' returns 19 rows at 4 verses, 16:102 among them. This study reports what the renderings name. It does not draw on writings outside the text to say who the spirit is.
