قُل هَل مِن شُرَكائِكُم مَن يَهدي إِلَى الحَقِّ ۚ قُلِ اللَّهُ يَهدي لِلحَقِّ ۗ أَفَمَن يَهدي إِلَى الحَقِّ أَحَقُّ أَن يُتَّبَعَ أَمَّن لا يَهِدّي إِلّا أَن يُهدىٰ ۖ فَما لَكُم كَيفَ تَحكُمونَ

Say, “Can any of your associates guide to the truth?” Say, “God alone guides to the truth. Is He who guides to the truth more deserving of being followed, or he who does not guide unless he himself is guided? What is wrong with you? How do you judge?”

وَما يَتَّبِعُ أَكثَرُهُم إِلّا ظَنًّا ۚ إِنَّ الظَّنَّ لا يُغني مِنَ الحَقِّ شَيئًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَليمٌ بِما يَفعَلونَ

The majority of them follow nothing but conjecture, which can never replace the truth. God is aware of what they do.

وَما كانَ هـٰذَا القُرآنُ أَن يُفتَرىٰ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ وَلـٰكِن تَصديقَ الَّذي بَينَ يَدَيهِ وَتَفصيلَ الكِتابِ لا رَيبَ فيهِ مِن رَبِّ العالَمينَ

This Quran could not have been fabricated by someone other than God. It confirms what came before it and thoroughly explains the Scripture. There is no doubt about it; it is from the Lord of the universes.

أَم يَقولونَ افتَراهُ ۖ قُل فَأتوا بِسورَةٍ مِثلِهِ وَادعوا مَنِ استَطَعتُم مِن دونِ اللَّهِ إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

Or do they say, “He made it up”? Say, “Then produce a chapter like it, and call upon anyone you can, other than God, if you are truthful.”

بَل كَذَّبوا بِما لَم يُحيطوا بِعِلمِهِ وَلَمّا يَأتِهِم تَأويلُهُ ۚ كَذٰلِكَ كَذَّبَ الَّذينَ مِن قَبلِهِم ۖ فَانظُر كَيفَ كانَ عاقِبَةُ الظّالِمينَ

They reject what they can’t comprehend, even before its interpretation reaches them. Likewise, those before them also rejected the truth. So, observe the fate of the wrongdoers.

وَإِن كَذَّبوكَ فَقُل لي عَمَلي وَلَكُم عَمَلُكُم ۖ أَنتُم بَريئونَ مِمّا أَعمَلُ وَأَنا بَريءٌ مِمّا تَعمَلونَ

If they accuse you of lying, say, “For me are my deeds, and for you are yours. You are innocent of what I do, and I am innocent of what you do.”

وَمِنهُم مَن يَستَمِعونَ إِلَيكَ ۚ أَفَأَنتَ تُسمِعُ الصُّمَّ وَلَو كانوا لا يَعقِلونَ

Among them are those who listen to you. But can you make the deaf hear, even though they can’t comprehend?

وَمِنهُم مَن يَنظُرُ إِلَيكَ ۚ أَفَأَنتَ تَهدِي العُميَ وَلَو كانوا لا يُبصِرونَ

Among them are those who look at you. But can you guide the blind, even if they can’t see?

إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يَظلِمُ النّاسَ شَيئًا وَلـٰكِنَّ النّاسَ أَنفُسَهُم يَظلِمونَ

God doesn’t do any injustice to people, instead, people do injustice to themselves.

وَيَومَ يَحشُرُهُم كَأَن لَم يَلبَثوا إِلّا ساعَةً مِنَ النَّهارِ يَتَعارَفونَ بَينَهُم ۚ قَد خَسِرَ الَّذينَ كَذَّبوا بِلِقاءِ اللَّهِ وَما كانوا مُهتَدينَ

On the Day when He gathers them all, it will seem as if they had only lingered for an hour of a day, familiarizing themselves with each other. Those who denied the encounter with God and were not guided will be the ones to suffer loss.
