P:  Thus is the Word of thy Lord justified concerning those who do wrong:  that they believe not.

S:  Thus does the word of your Lord prove true against those who transgress that they do not believe.

010.034 Y:  Say:  “Of your ‘partners’, can any originate creation and repeat it?” Say:  “It is Allah Who originates creation and repeats it:  then how are ye deluded away (from the truth)?”

P:  Say:  Is there of your partners (whom ye ascribe unto Allah) one that produceth Creation and then reproduceth it?  Say:  Allah produceth Creation, then reproduceth it.  How then, are ye misled!

S:  Say:  Is there any one among your associates who can bring into existence the creation in the first instance, then reproduce it?  Say:  Allah brings the creation into existence, then He reproduces it; how are you then turned away?

010.035 Y:  Say:  “Of your ‘partners’ is there any that can give any guidance towards truth?” Say:  “It is Allah Who gives guidance towards truth, is then He Who gives guidance to truth more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance (himself) unless he is guided? what then is the matter with you?  How judge ye?”

P:  Say:  Is there of your partners (whom ye ascribe unto Allah) one that leadeth to the Truth?  Say:  Allah leadeth to the Truth.  Is He Who leadeth to the Truth more deserving that He should be followed, or he who findeth not the way unless he (himself) be guided.  What aileth you?  How judge ye?

S:  Say:  Is there any of your associates who guides to the truth?  Say:  Allah guides to the truth.  Is He then Who guides to the truth more worthy to be followed, or he who himself does not go aright unless he is guided?  What then is the matter with you; how do you judge?

010.036 Y:  But most of them follow nothing but fancy:  truly fancy can be of no avail against truth.  Verily Allah is well aware of all that they do.

P:  Most of them follow not but conjecture.  Assuredly conjecture can by no means take the place of truth.  Lo!  Allah is Aware of what they do.

S:  And most of them do not follow (anything) but conjecture; surely conjecture will not avail aught against the truth; surely Allah is cognizant of what they do.

010.037 Y:  This Qur’an is not such as can be produced by other than Allah; on the contrary it is a confirmation of (revelations) that went before it, and a fuller explanation of the Book — wherein there is no doubt — from the Lord of the worlds.

P:  And this Qur’an is not such as could ever be invented in despite of Allah; but it is a confirmation of that which was before it and an exposition of that which is decreed for mankind — Therein is no doubt — from the Lord of the Worlds.

S:  And this Quran is not such as could be forged by those besides Allah, but it is a verification of that which is before it and a clear explanation of the book, there is no doubt in it, from the Lord of the worlds.
