Is He then Who watches every soul as to what it earns? And yet they give associates to Allah! Say: Give them a name; nay, do you mean to inform Him of what He does not know in the earth, or (do you affirm this) by an outward saying? Rather, their plans are made to appear fair-seeming to those who disbelieve, and they are kept back from the path; and whom Allah makes err, he shall have no guide.
آيا كسى كه بر هر شخصى بدانچه كرده است مراقب است [مانند كسى است كه از همه جا بى‌خبر است‌]؟ و براى خدا شريكانى قرار دادند. بگو: «نامشان را ببريد» آيا او را به آنچه در زمين است و او نمى‌داند خبر مى‌دهيد، يا سخنى سطحى [و ميان‌تهى‌] مى‌گوييد؟ [چنين نيست‌] بلكه براى كسانى كه كافر شده‌اند نيرنگشان آراسته شده و از راه [حق‌] بازداشته شده‌اند و هر كه را خدا بى‌راه گذارد رهبرى نخواهد داشت.
