And (do they chose for Him) one who is brought up among ornaments, and cannot express herself clearly in debate?

What, one who is reared amid ornaments and, when the time of altercation comes, is not to be seen?

Hath He taken to Himself that which is reared in ornaments, and is in contention not plain?

(Do they then like for Allah) a creature who is brought up in adornments (wearing silk and gold ornaments, i.e. women), and in dispute cannot make herself clear?

“Someone brought up to be beautiful, and unable to help in a fight?”

Do they assign to Allah one who grows up amidst ornaments and is not well-versed in the art of disputation?

A creature who is brought up in adornments, and who in dispute cannot make itself clear

(Liken they then to Allah) that which is bred up in outward show, and in dispute cannot make itself plain?

‘What! One who is brought up amid ornaments and is inconspicuous in contests?’

(As such they attribute to Allah) who is brought up among ornaments but when disputes arise are powerless.

Does God choose for Himself the kind of children who grow up wearing ornaments and who are not strong enough to defend their rights?

What! that which is made in ornaments and which in contention is unable to make plain speech!

[\"Do you ascribe to God] one who is brought up among ornaments and who cannot produce a cogent argument?\"

Is then one brought up among trinkets, and unable to give a clear account in a dispute (to be associated with Allah)?

And they said, \"If the Most Merciful had willed, we would not have worshipped them.\" They have of that no knowledge. They are not but falsifying.

And they say, “If the Most Gracious had willed, we would not have worshipped them!” They do not know its truth at all; they only make guesses.

Rather, they say, \"Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are in their footsteps [rightly] guided.\"

Bal qaloo inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muhtadoona

In fact they say: \"We found our fathers following a certain way, and are guided by their footprints.\"

Rather they said, “We found our forefathers upon a religion, and we are following their footsteps.”

Nay, but they say, 'We found our fathers upon a community, and we are guided upon their traces.'

Nay! they say: verily we have found our fathers on a certain way, and verily by their footsteps we are guided.

Nay! They say: \"We found our fathers following a certain way and religion, and we guide ourselves by their footsteps.\"

But they say, “We found our parents on a course, and we are guided in their footsteps.”

Nay; they simply claim: “We found our forefathers on a way, and we continue to find guidance in their footsteps.”

Nay! They say: \"We found our fathers following a certain way and religion, and we guide ourselves by their footsteps.\"

Nay, for they say only: Lo! we found our fathers following a religion, and we are guided by their footprints.

No, they said, ‘We found our fathers following a creed, and we are indeed guided in their footsteps.’

No, but they say: 'We found our fathers following a creed, and by following in their footsteps we are guided.

In fact, they say, \"We found our fathers following a certain belief and we now follow in their footsteps for our guidance\".

Nay! they say: We found our fathers on a course, and surely we are guided by their footsteps.

No indeed! They say, \"We have found our fathers following a certain course, and we are guided by their footsteps.\"

Nay! they say: \"We found our fathers following a certain religion, and we do guide ourselves by their footsteps.\"

وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ فِى قَرْيَةٍۢ مِّن نَّذِيرٍ إِلَّا قَالَ مُتْرَفُوهَآ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَآ ءَابَآءَنَا عَلَىٰٓ أُمَّةٍۢ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَٰرِهِم مُّقْتَدُونَ ﴿٢٣﴾

And similarly, We did not send before you any warner into a city except that its affluent said, \"Indeed, we found our fathers upon a religion, and we are, in their footsteps, following.\"

Wakathalika ma arsalna min qablika fee qaryatin min natheerin illa qala mutrafooha inna wajadna abaana AAala ommatin wainna AAala atharihim muqtadoona

Thus, We never sent an admonisher to a settlement before you but the decadent among them said. \"We found our fathers following this way, and we are walking in their footsteps.\"

And similarly, whenever We sent a Herald of Warning before you (O dear Prophet Mohammed – peace and blessings be upon him) into any town, its wealthy people said, “We found our forefathers upon a religion, and we are behind their footsteps.”

Even so We sent never before thee any warner into any city, except that its men who lived at ease said, 'We indeed found our fathers upon a community, and we are following upon their traces.'

And in this wise We sent not before thee into any city a warner but the affluent thereof said: verily we! we found our fathers on a certain way and verily their footsteps we are following.

And similarly, We sent not a warner before you (O Muhammad SAW) to any town (people) but the luxurious ones among them said: \"We found our fathers following a certain way and religion, and we will indeed follow their footsteps.\"

Likewise, We sent no warner before you to any town, but the wealthy among them said, “We found our parents on a course, and we are following in their footsteps.”

And thus it is: whenever We sent any warner to a city its affluent ones said: “We found our forefathers on a way and we continue to follow in their footsteps.”

And similarly, We sent not a warner before you to any town (people) but the luxurious ones among them said: \"We found our fathers following a certain way and religion, and we will indeed follow their footsteps.\"

And even so We sent not a warner before thee (Muhammad) into any township but its luxurious ones said: Lo! we found our fathers following a religion, and we are following their footprints.

So it has been that We did not send any warner to a town before you, without its affluent ones saying, ‘We found our fathers following a creed and we are indeed following in their footsteps.’

As such, We never sent a warner before you to a village, except those living in luxury said: 'We found our fathers following a creed, and by following in their footsteps we are guided'

In the same way, whenever We had sent a Messenger before you to warn a town, the rich ones therein said, \"We found our fathers following a certain belief and we follow in their footsteps.

And thus, We did not send before you any warner in a town, but those who led easy lives in it said: Surely we found our fathers on a course, and surely we are followers of their footsteps.

Whenever We sent a messenger before you to warn a township, the affluent among them said, in the same way, \"We saw our fathers following this tradition; we are only following in their footsteps.\"

Just in the same way, whenever We sent a Warner before thee to any people, the wealthy ones among them said: \"We found our fathers following a certain religion, and we will certainly follow in their footsteps.\"

۞ قَٰلَ أَوَلَوْ جِئْتُكُم بِأَهْدَىٰ مِمَّا وَجَدتُّمْ عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَكُمْ ۖ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا بِمَآ أُرْسِلْتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ ﴿٢٤﴾

[Each warner] said, \"Even if I brought you better guidance than that [religion] upon which you found your fathers?\" They said, \"Indeed we, in that with which you were sent, are disbelievers.\"

Qala awalaw jitukum biahda mimma wajadtum AAalayhi abaakum qaloo inna bima orsiltum bihi kafiroona

\"Even if I bring you a better guidance,\" he rejoined, \"than the one you found your fathers on?\" Still they said: \"We do not believe in what you have brought.\"

The prophet said, “What! Even if I bring to you a path better than what you found your forefathers following?”; they said, “We do not believe in whatever you have been sent with.”

Say: 'What, though I should bring you a better guidance than you found your fathers upon?' They say, 'We disbelieve in that you were sent with.'

The warner said: What! even though bring you a better guidance than that which ye found your fathers upon They said: verily in that wherewith ye are sent we are disbelievers.

(The warner) said: \"Even if I bring you better guidance than that which you found your fathers following?\" They said: \"Verily, We disbelieve in that with which you have been sent.\"

He would say, “Even if I bring you better guidance than what you found your parents following?” They would say, “We reject what you are sent with.”

Each Prophet asked them: “Will you do so even if we were to show you a way better than the way of your forefathers?” They answered: “We disbelieve in the religion with which you have been sent.”

He said: \"Even if I bring you better guidance than that which you found your fathers following\" They said: \"Verily, we disbelieve in that with which you have been sent.\"

(And the warner) said: What! Even though I bring you better guidance than that ye found your fathers following? They answered: Lo! in what ye bring we are disbelievers.

He would say, ‘What! Even if I bring you a better guidance than what you found your fathers following?!’ They would say, ‘We indeed disbelieve in what you are sent with.’

Say: 'What then if I bring you a better guidance than that you found your fathers following' But they reply: 'We disbelieve in that you have been sent with.'

The Messengers would say, \"Would you still follow in the footsteps of your fathers even if I was to bring you better guidance?\" They would say, \"We have no faith in your message\".

(The warner) said: What! even if I bring to you a better guide than that on which you found your fathers? They said: Surely we are unbelievers in that with which you are sent.

Each messenger said, \"What if I should bring you better guidance than what you found your forefathers had?\" They replied, \"We reject any message you have been sent with!\"

He said: \"What! Even if I brought you better guidance than that which ye found your fathers following?\" They said: \"For us, we deny that ye (prophets) are sent (on a mission at all).\"

And if it were not that the people would become one community [of disbelievers], We would have made for those who disbelieve in the Most Merciful - for their houses - ceilings and stairways of silver upon which to mount

Walawla an yakoona alnnasu ommatan wahidatan lajaAAalna liman yakfuru bialrrahmani libuyootihim suqufan min fiddatin wamaAAarija AAalayha yathharoona

Had it not been that all people would become one community (of unbelievers), We might have given those who disbelieve in Ar-Rahman roofs of silver for their dwellings and (silver) stairs for mounting,

And were it not for that all people be on one religion, We would have made for the disbelievers of the Most Gracious, roofs and stairs of silver which they would climb.

And were it not that mankind would be one nation, We would have appointed for those who disbelieve in the All-merciful roofs of silver to their houses, and stairs whereon to mount,

And were it not that mankind would have become one community, We should make for those who disbelieve in the Compassionate roofs of silver for their houses and silver stair ways whereby they ascend.

And were it not that all mankind would have become of one community (all disbelievers, desiring worldly life only), We would have provided for those who disbelieve in the Most Beneficent (Allah), silver roofs for their houses, and elevators (and stair-ways, etc. of silver) whereby they ascend,

Were it not that humanity would become a single community, We would have provided those who disbelieve in the Most Gracious with roofs of silver to their houses, and stairways by which they ascend.

Were it not that all mankind would become a single community (and follow the same way), We would have provided for all those who disbelieve in the Merciful One silver roofs for their houses, and (silver) stairs on which to go up,

And were it not that mankind would have become one community, We might well have appointed, for those who disbelieve in the Beneficent, roofs of silver for their houses and stairs (of silver) whereby to mount,

Were it not [for the danger] that mankind would be one community, We would have made for those who defy the All-beneficent, silver roofs for their houses and [silver] stairways by which they ascend,

If it were not that mankind would be one nation We would have made for whosoever disbelieves in the Merciful silver roofs upon their houses, and stairs toclimb,

Were it not for the fear that all people would become one in disbelief, We would have made for the disbelievers in the Beneficent God ceilings out of silver and ladders by which they would climb up,

And were it not that all people had been a single nation, We would certainly have assigned to those who disbelieve in the Beneficent Allah (to make) of silver the roofs of their houses and the stairs by which they ascend.

If it were not that all mankind might have become one community [of disbelievers], We could have given all those who deny the Lord of Mercy, houses with roofs of silver, silver staircases to ascend,

And adornments of gold. Yet all this would have been nothing but an enjoyment of this world. And the Hereafter with your Lord is for those who have Taqwa.

And ornaments of gold. Yet all that would have been but a provision of the life of the world. And the Hereafter with your Lord would have been for those who keep from evil.

and ornaments of gold; yet all that would be nothing but the wares of the life of this world, and the Hereafter is for the Godwary near your Lord.

and gold, surely, all this is but the enjoyment of this present life. The Everlasting Life with your Lord is for those who fear (Him).

and other ornament of gold. All these are only the means of enjoyment in this world, but the pious will receive their reward from your Lord in the life hereafter.

And (other) embellishments of gold; and all this is naught but provision of this world's life, and the hereafter is with your Lord only for those who guard (against evil).

and ornaments of gold. But all of these are but the provision of this present life; it is the life to come that the Lord reserves for those who fear Him.

And also adornments of gold. But all this were nothing but conveniences of the present life: The Hereafter, in the sight of thy Lord is for the Righteous.

And indeed, the devils avert them from the way [of guidance] while they think that they are [rightly] guided

Surely the (devils) obstruct them from the path, though they think they are rightly guided, --

And indeed those devils prevent them from the Straight Path, and they think they are on guidance!

and they bar them from the way, and they think they are guided,

And verily they hinder them from the way, whilst they deem that they are rightly guided.

And verily, they (Satans / devils) hinder them from the Path (of Allah), but they think that they are guided aright!

They hinder them from the path, though they think they are guided.

and these satans hinder them from the Right Path, while he still reckons himself to be rightly-guided.

And verily, they hinder them from the path, but they think that they are guided aright!

And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided;

Indeed they bar them from the way [of Allah], while they suppose that they are [rightly] guided.

and they bar them from the Way, though they themselves think that they are guided.

Satan will prevent them from the right path while they think that they have the right guidance.

And most surely they turn them away from the path, and they think that they are guided aright:

Devils divert men from the [right] way, while they think that they are rightly guided.

Such (evil ones) really hinder them from the Path, but they think that they are being guided aright!

Until when he comes before Us he will say (to the devil): \"Would to God there was a distance of the East and West between you and me, for you were an evil companion!\"

To the extent that when the disbeliever will be brought to Us, he will say to his devil, “Alas – if only there was the distance* of east and west, between you and me!” – so what an evil companion** he is! (* Had I not listened to you. **They will be bound together in chains.)

Until when he cometh Unto Us, he will say. Ah! would that there had been between me and thee, the distance of the east and the west an evil companion

Till, when (such a one) comes to Us, he says [to his Qarin (Satan / devil companion)] \"Would that between me and you were the distance of the two easts (or the east and west)\" a worst (type of) companion (indeed)!

Until, when He comes to Us, he will say, “If only there were between me and you the distance of the two Easts.” What an evil companion!

But when he comes to Us, he will say (to his satan): “Would that there had been between me and you the distance as between the East and the West. How evil a companion you were!”

When he returns to us, he will say (to satan), \"Would that there had been as long a distance between me and you as that between the East and West. What a terrible companion you have been\".

Until when he comes to Us, he says: O would that between me and you there were the distance of the East and the West; so evil is the associate!

When such a person comes to Us, he will say [to his comrade], \"If only you had been as far away from me as east is from west. What an evil comrade!\"

At length, when (such a one) comes to Us, he says (to his evil companion): \"Would that between me and thee were the distance of East and West!\" Ah! evil is the companion (indeed)!

(He will then be told): “Today it will not benefit you the least that after your wrong-doing you and your satans now share the chastisement.”

It will profit you not this Day as you did wrong, (and) that you will be sharers in the punishment.

And it profiteth you not this day, because ye did wrong, that ye will be sharers in the doom.

‘Today that will be of no avail to you. As you did wrong, so will you share in the punishment.’

Because of the harm you did, it would be of no benefit to you today, you are partners in the punishment.

They will be told on the Day of Judgment, \"Regret will never be of any benefit to you. You have done injustice to your souls and you will share the torment\".

And since you were unjust, it will not profit you this day that you are sharers in the chastisement.

It will be said [to such a person], \"You have done wrong. Having partners in punishment will be of no avail to you today.\"

When ye have done wrong, it will avail you nothing, that Day, that ye shall be partners in Punishment!
