Waman athlamu mimmani iftara AAala Allahi kathiban aw kaththaba bi-ayatihi innahu la yuflihu alththalimoona\n21. Who doth more wrong\n Than he who inventeth\n A lie against God\n Or rejecteth His Signs?\n But verily the wrong-doers\n Never shall prosper.\n22. Wayawma nahshuruhum jameeAAan thumma naqoolu lillatheena ashrakoo ayna shurakaokumu allatheena kuntum tazAAumoona\n22. One day shall We gather\n Them all together: We\n Shall say to those\n Who ascribed partners (to Us):\n \"Where are the partners\n Whom ye (invented\n And) talked about?\"\n23. Thumma lam takun fitnatuhum illa an qaloo waAllahi rabbina ma kunna mushrikeena\n23. There will then be (left)\n No subterfuge for them\n But to say: \"By God\n Our Lord, we were not\n Those who joined gods\n With God.\"\n24. Onthur kayfa kathaboo AAala anfusihim wadalla AAanhum ma kanoo yaftaroona\n24. Behold! how they lie\n Against their own souls!\nBut the (lie) which they\n Invented will leave themes:\n In the lurch.\n25. Waminhum man yastamiAAu ilayka wajaAAalna AAala quloobihim akinnatan an yafqahoohu wafee athanihim waqran wa-in yaraw kulla ayatin la yu/minoo biha hatta itha jaooka yujadiloonaka yaqoolu allatheena kafaroo in hatha illa asateeru al-awwaleena\n25. Of them there are some\n Who (pretend to) listen to thee;\n But We have thrown\n Veils on their hearts,\n So they understand it not,\n And deafness in their ears;\n If they saw every one\n Of the Signs, not they\n Will believe in them;\n In so much that\n When they come to thee,\n They (but) dispute with thee;\n The Unbelievers say:\n \"These are nothing\n But tales of the ancients.\"\n26. Wahum yanhawna AAanhu wayan-awna AAanhu wa-in yuhlikoona illa anfusahum wama yashAAuroona\n26. Others they keep away from it,\n And themselves they keep away;\n But they only destroy\n Their own souls,\n And they perceive it not.\n27. Walaw tara ith wuqifoo AAala alnnari faqaloo ya laytana nuraddu wala nukaththiba bi-ayati rabbina wanakoona mina almu/mineena\n27. If thou couldst but see\n When they are confronted\n With the Fire!\n They will say:\n \"Would that we were\n But sent back!\n Then would we not reject\n The Signs of our Lord,\n But would be amongst those\n Who believe!\"\n28. Bal bada lahum ma kanoo yukhfoona min qablu walaw ruddoo laAAadoo lima nuhoo AAanhu wa-innahum lakathiboona\n28. Yea, in their own (eyes)\n Will become manifest\n What before they concealed.\n But if they were returned,\n They would certainly relapse\n To the things they were forbidden,\nFor they are indeed liars.\n29. Waqaloo in hiya illa hayatuna alddunya wama nahnu bimabAAootheena\n29. And they (sometimes) say:\n \"There is nothing except\n Our life on this earth,\n And never shall we be\n Raised up again.\"\n30. Walaw tara ith wuqifoo AAala rabbihim qala alaysa hatha bialhaqqi qaloo bala warabbina qala fathooqoo alAAathaba bima kuntum takfuroona\n30. If thou couldst but see\n When they are confronted\n With their Lord!\n He will say:\n \"Is not this the truth?\"\n They will say:\n \"Yea, by our Lord!\"\n He will say:\n \"Taste ye then the Penalty,\n Because ye rejected Faith.\"","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra VI.: An\u2019\u0101m, or Cattle.: Section 3 (21-30)","type":"page"}
