004.115 Y:  If anyone contends with the Messenger even after guidance has been plainly conveyed to him, and follows a path other than that becoming to men of Faith, We shall leave him in the path he has chosen, and land him in Hell,- what an evil refuge!

P:  And whoso opposeth the messenger after the guidance (of Allah) hath been manifested unto him, and followeth other than the believer’s way, We appoint for him that unto which he himself hath turned, and expose him unto hell — a hapless journey’s end!

S:  And whoever acts hostilely to the Messenger after that guidance has become manifest to him, and follows other than the way of the believers, We will turn him to that to which he has (himself) turned and make him enter hell; and it is an evil resort.

004.116 Y:  Allah forgiveth not (The sin of) joining other gods with Him; but He forgiveth whom He pleaseth other sins than this:  one who joins other gods with Allah, Hath strayed far, far away (from the right).

P:  Lo!  Allah pardoneth not that partners should be ascribed unto Him.  He pardoneth all save that to whom He will.  Whoso ascribeth partners unto Allah hath wandered far astray.

S:  Surely Allah does not forgive that anything should be associated with Him, and He forgives what is besides this to whom He pleases; and whoever associates anything with Allah, he indeed strays off into a remote error.

004.117 Y:  (The Pagans), leaving Him, call but upon female deities:  They call but upon Satan the persistent rebel!

P:  They invoke in His stead only females; they pray to none else than Satan, a rebel.

S:  They do not call besides Him on anything but idols, and they do not call on anything but a rebellious Shaitan.

004.118 Y:  Allah did curse him, but he said:  “I will take of Thy servants a portion Marked off;”

P:  Whom Allah cursed, and he said:  Surely I will take of Thy bondmen an appointed portion,

S:  Allah has cursed him; and he said:  Most certainly I will take of Thy servants an appointed portion: 

004.119 Y:  “I will mislead them, and I will create in them false desires; I will order them to slit the ears of cattle, and to deface the (fair) nature created by Allah.”  Whoever, forsaking Allah, takes Satan for a friend, hath of a surety suffered a loss that is manifest.

P:  And surely I will lead them astray, and surely I will arouse desires in them, and surely I will command them and they will cut the cattle’ ears, and surely I will command them and they will change Allah’s creation.  Whoso chooseth Satan for a patron instead of Allah is verily a loser and his loss is manifest.

S:  And most certainly I will lead them astray and excite in them vain desires, and bid them so that they shall slit the ears of the cattle, and most certainly I will bid them so that they shall alter Allah’s creation; and whoever takes the Shaitan for a guardian rather than Allah he indeed shall suffer a manifest loss.
