11. He made one man without a blemish, named Muhammad 
glorious as the full moon. It was his radiancy that God first produced, 
and then for love of him He created the universe. He kindled that 
light and ga\e it to the world. The world became clear, and recognized 
its (true) way. If that bright man had not been, the dark path would 
not have been visible. The deity wrote the second place for him, 1 2 * and 
that man became just who learned his creeds For him, who hath not 
taken (refuge in) his name throughout his life, God hath prepared a 
place in hell. The deity made him His messenger to the world, and 
whoever hath taken his name passes safely across both worlds. 8 
God will ask of each his virtues and his vices, (when) there will be 
the (great) casting up of accounts. But he (Muhammad) will humbly 
bend before him, and will effect the salvation of the world.

1 That is to say, he was second of all things, God being the first; other 
created beings followed. Pandit Sudhakara DvivedI translates this verse, ‘ Those 
men became just who learned his teaching, and that God, (i. e., Muhammad) wrote 
his name in the second place, (i. e., heaven) ; but for them, who throughout their 
lives did not take his name, (t. e., adopt his teaching), ho fixed a place in hell.
