What does the Qur'an say about the soul (ruh)?

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.

  1. 01 17:85 THEY ARE ASKING THEE CONCERNING THE SPIRIT. Say: the Spirit is by command of my Lord, AND OF KNOWLEDGE YE HAVE BEEN VOUCHSAFED BUT LITTLE. In because it is the direct question and the direct refusal, and because the refusal is the answer the text gives - the study cannot improve on it.
  2. 02 15:29 So, when I have made him and have BREATHED INTO HIM OF MY SPIRIT, do ye fall down prostrating yourselves unto him. In because it is the making of the human being, and because the prostration is commanded on the strength of the breathing.
  3. 03 32:9 Then He fashioned him and BREATHED INTO HIM OF HIS SPIRIT; and appointed for you hearing and sight and hearts. Small thanks give ye. In because it follows the breathing immediately with the faculties, which is the closest the text comes to saying what the spirit brings with it.
  4. 04 21:91 And she who was chaste - We BREATHED INTO HER something of Our Spirit and made her and her son a token for peoples. In because the same construction is used of Mary, which shows the phrase is not reserved to the first creation.
  5. 05 16:2 He sendeth down the angels WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS COMMAND unto whom He will of His bondmen: warn mankind that there is no God save Me. In because here the word attaches to revelation rather than to life, which is the second and quite distinct use.
  6. 06 42:52 And thus have We inspired in thee A SPIRIT OF OUR COMMAND. Thou knewest not what the Scripture was, nor what the Faith. In because it applies that second sense to the Qur'an itself and to the Prophet.
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation

Written by the editors. Not a translation, and not a source. It is an editorial restatement of the verses in this study and carries their name because someone has to answer for it.

The Qur'an was asked this question directly, and the answer it records is a refusal.

17:85: THEY ARE ASKING THEE CONCERNING THE SPIRIT. Say: the Spirit is by command of my Lord, and OF KNOWLEDGE YE HAVE BEEN VOUCHSAFED BUT LITTLE. A study that reported anything more confident than that would be improving on the text.

What the text does say is how the word is used, and it is used in two quite different ways.

The first is life. 15:29 and 32:9: God fashions the human being and BREATHES INTO HIM OF HIS SPIRIT. In 15:29 the angels are commanded to prostrate on the strength of it. In 32:9 what follows immediately is hearing, sight and hearts - the faculties arrive in the same breath as the spirit. And 21:91 uses the identical construction of Mary, so the phrase is not confined to Adam.

The second is revelation. 16:2 has angels sent down WITH THE SPIRIT OF HIS COMMAND to warn. 42:52 says the Prophet was inspired with A SPIRIT OF OUR COMMAND, and glosses it as the Scripture and the Faith he did not previously know.

So the same word does duty for what animates a person and for what is sent down as revelation, and the text does not explain the relation.

What is NOT here is any of what a reader may be looking for: where the soul comes from, whether it pre-exists the body, what it is made of, where it goes. 17:85 forecloses the question, and the material that answers it in later literature is philosophy and , neither of which has cleared the rights audit. What happens to the soul at death is carried by What does the Qur'an say about the moment the soul is taken - and what detail does it not give?

not a scholar — what this signature means

I am not a scholar, and nothing here asks you to treat me as one. The plain words on this site are my restatement of what the five translations shown above say, together with counts derived from the text itself — nothing more. I sign them so that a named person is accountable for every sentence, not so you'll take my word for anything. The authority on this page is the text and its translators. If my words don't match theirs, mine are the ones that are wrong.

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 study does not answer, and which source would be needed. It does not say on what occasion any of these verses was given: this study holds no source whose usage rights can be verified. It does not report how any commentator has read them: this study holds no either - the Arabic of , and is public domain by age, but no English edition with verifiable usage rights exists. And it offers no academic-historical reading: this study holds no such scholarship. Each of those is an absence with a named cause, not an omission.

What this rests on

Opens with 17:85, widening across 6 passages in all.

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.

The versesSource fact 6 passages, each with every cleared translation

6 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.

Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Kështu, Ne të shpallëm ty një Shpirt (Kuranin) me urdhrin Tonë. Ti nuk e dije ç'është Libri e as besimi, por Ne e bëmë atë (Kuranin) dritë me të cilën udhëzojmë kë të duam nga robërit Tanë. Me të vërtetë, ti udhëzon në rrugë të drejtë,

What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it4 of the 5 paragraphs signed with this study; the paragraph naming what it does not answer is at the top of the page

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.

Read across the four public-domain translations - Sale 1734, Rodwell 1861, Palmer 1880, Pickthall 1930 - of 17:85, 15:29, 32:9, 21:91, 16:2, 42:52, in full, and nothing else. This study consults no , no , no occasion of revelation and no biography, because none is yet available in an edition whose usage rights can be verified. Itani 2012, the fifth translation shown with these verses, was not consulted for this study.

How this set was arrived at. The verses were found by a word search of the four public-domain translations, using terms chosen by the editor and listed here as they were searched - ask + thee + spirit; spirit + command; breathed + spirit; my + spirit; soul + little + knowledge. The search was a way of finding passages, not a judgement about what they mean: that several translators chose the same English word is not evidence about the Arabic. A different choice of terms gives a different set.

What was returned and not carried. 5 verse(s) the search qualified are recorded as not carried with a reason each, rather than silently discarded: 5:110 - on-topic and important, but its subject is the support given to Jesus; 12:87 - the word is used for relief or mercy here; the four translations differ sharply; 38:72 - near-identical to 15:29, which is kept; 40:15 - near-identical to 16:2; 66:12 - near-identical to 21:91.

Where the translations part company, named rather than resolved. How differently the translations word each verse is shown on that verse's page, and the study names the differences it turns on rather than choosing between them.
