and by those who glide swiftly³,

Notes

[3] i.e., angels glide swiftly through the heavens and earth with Allah’s command.

And by those that swim along (i.e. angels or planets in their orbits).

By the lone stars floating,

And by those who glide along (on errands of mercy),

And by those who float in space,

And (by) the swimmers swimming (serenely), (Or: gliding; horses racing; celestial bodies racing).
