6:111

۞ وَلَوْ And (even) if أَنَّنَا [that] We (had) نَزَّلْنَآ [We] sent down إِلَيْهِمُ to them ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةَ the Angels وَكَلَّمَهُمُ and spoken to them ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ the dead وَحَشَرْنَا and We gathered عَلَيْهِمْ before them كُلَّ every شَىْءٍۢ thing قُبُلًۭا face to face مَّا not كَانُوا۟ they were لِيُؤْمِنُوٓا۟ to believe إِلَّآ unless أَن [that] يَشَآءَ wills ٱللَّهُ Allah وَلَـٰكِنَّ But أَكْثَرَهُمْ most of them يَجْهَلُونَ (are) ignorant ١١١

And even if We had sent down to them the angels [with the message] and the dead spoke to them [of it] and We gathered together every [created] thing in front of them, they would not believe unless Allāh should will. But most of them, [of that], are ignorant.

وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus جَعَلْنَا We made لِكُلِّ for every نَبِىٍّ Prophet عَدُوًّۭا an enemy شَيَـٰطِينَ devils ٱلْإِنسِ (from) the mankind وَٱلْجِنِّ and the jinn يُوحِى inspiring بَعْضُهُمْ some of them إِلَىٰ to بَعْضٍۢ others زُخْرُفَ (with) decorative ٱلْقَوْلِ [the] speech غُرُورًۭا ۚ (in) deception وَلَوْ But if شَآءَ (had) willed رَبُّكَ your Lord مَا not فَعَلُوهُ ۖ they (would) have done it فَذَرْهُمْ so leave them وَمَا and what يَفْتَرُونَ they invent ١١٢

And thus We have made for every prophet an enemy - devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring to one another decorative speech in delusion. But if your Lord had willed, they would not have done it, so leave them and that which they invent.

وَلِتَصْغَىٰٓ And so that incline إِلَيْهِ to it أَفْـِٔدَةُ hearts ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe بِٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ in the Hereafter وَلِيَرْضَوْهُ and so that they may be pleased with it وَلِيَقْتَرِفُوا۟ and so that they may commit مَا what هُم they مُّقْتَرِفُونَ (are) committing ١١٣

And [it is] so the hearts of those who disbelieve in the Hereafter will incline toward it [i.e., deceptive speech] and that they will be satisfied with it and that they will commit that which they are committing.

6:114

أَفَغَيْرَ Then is (it) other than ٱللَّهِ Allah أَبْتَغِى I seek حَكَمًۭا (as) judge وَهُوَ while He ٱلَّذِىٓ (is) the One Who أَنزَلَ has revealed إِلَيْكُمُ to you ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book مُفَصَّلًۭا ۚ explained in detail وَٱلَّذِينَ And those (to) whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمُ We gave them ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book يَعْلَمُونَ they know أَنَّهُۥ that it مُنَزَّلٌۭ (is) sent down مِّن from رَّبِّكَ your Lord بِٱلْحَقِّ ۖ in truth فَلَا so (do) not تَكُونَنَّ be مِنَ among ٱلْمُمْتَرِينَ the ones who doubt ١١٤

[Say], "Then is it other than Allāh I should seek as judge while it is He who has revealed to you the Book [i.e., the Qur’ān] explained in detail?" And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters.

وَمَا And what لَكُمْ for you أَلَّا that not تَأْكُلُوا۟ you eat مِمَّا of what ذُكِرَ has been mentioned ٱسْمُ (the) name ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah عَلَيْهِ on it وَقَدْ when indeed فَصَّلَ He (has) explained in detail لَكُم to you مَّا what حَرَّمَ He (has) forbidden عَلَيْكُمْ to you إِلَّا except مَا what ٱضْطُرِرْتُمْ you are compelled إِلَيْهِ ۗ to it وَإِنَّ And indeed كَثِيرًۭا many لَّيُضِلُّونَ surely lead astray بِأَهْوَآئِهِم by their (vain) desires بِغَيْرِ without عِلْمٍ ۗ knowledge إِنَّ Indeed رَبَّكَ your Lord هُوَ He أَعْلَمُ (is) most knowing بِٱلْمُعْتَدِينَ of the transgressors ١١٩

And why should you not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has been mentioned while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelled.

وَذَرُوا۟ Forsake ظَـٰهِرَ open ٱلْإِثْمِ [the] sins وَبَاطِنَهُۥٓ ۚ and the secret إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those who يَكْسِبُونَ earn ٱلْإِثْمَ [the] sin سَيُجْزَوْنَ they will be recompensed بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَقْتَرِفُونَ commit ١٢٠

And do not eat of that upon which the name of Allāh has not been mentioned, for indeed, it is grave disobedience. And indeed do the devils inspire their allies [among men] to dispute with you. And if you were to obey them, indeed, you would be associators [of others with Him].

أَوَمَن Is (one) who كَانَ was مَيْتًۭا dead فَأَحْيَيْنَـٰهُ and We gave him life وَجَعَلْنَا and We made لَهُۥ for him نُورًۭا light يَمْشِى he walks بِهِۦ whereby فِى among ٱلنَّاسِ the people كَمَن like (one) who مَّثَلُهُۥ [similar to him] فِى (is) in ٱلظُّلُمَـٰتِ the darknesses لَيْسَ not بِخَارِجٍۢ he comes out مِّنْهَا ۚ of it كَذَٰلِكَ Thus زُيِّنَ is made fair-seeming لِلْكَـٰفِرِينَ to the disbelievers مَا what كَانُوا۟ they were يَعْمَلُونَ doing ١٢٢

And is one who was dead and We gave him life and made for him light by which to walk among the people like one who is in darkness, never to emerge therefrom? Thus it has been made pleasing to the disbelievers that which they were doing.

وَإِذَا And when جَآءَتْهُمْ comes to them ءَايَةٌۭ a Sign قَالُوا۟ they say لَن Never نُّؤْمِنَ we will believe حَتَّىٰ until نُؤْتَىٰ we are given مِثْلَ like مَآ what أُوتِىَ was given رُسُلُ (to the) Messengers ٱللَّهِ ۘ (of) Allah ٱللَّهُ Allah أَعْلَمُ knows best حَيْثُ where يَجْعَلُ He places رِسَالَتَهُۥ ۗ His Message سَيُصِيبُ Will afflict ٱلَّذِينَ those who أَجْرَمُوا۟ committed crimes صَغَارٌ a humiliation عِندَ from ٱللَّهِ Allah وَعَذَابٌۭ and a punishment شَدِيدٌۢ severe بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَمْكُرُونَ plot ١٢٤

And when a sign comes to them, they say, "Never will we believe until we are given like that which was given to the messengers of Allāh." Allāh is most knowing of where [i.e., with whom] He places His message. There will afflict those who committed crimes debasement before Allāh and severe punishment for what they used to conspire.

فَمَن So whoever يُرِدِ wants ٱللَّهُ Allah أَن that يَهْدِيَهُۥ He guides him يَشْرَحْ He expands صَدْرَهُۥ his breast لِلْإِسْلَـٰمِ ۖ to Islam وَمَن and whoever يُرِدْ He wants أَن that يُضِلَّهُۥ He lets him go astray يَجْعَلْ He makes صَدْرَهُۥ his breast ضَيِّقًا tight حَرَجًۭا and constricted كَأَنَّمَا as though يَصَّعَّدُ he (were) climbing فِى into ٱلسَّمَآءِ ۚ the sky كَذَٰلِكَ Thus يَجْعَلُ places ٱللَّهُ Allah ٱلرِّجْسَ the filth عَلَى on ٱلَّذِينَ those who لَا (do) not يُؤْمِنُونَ believe ١٢٥

So whoever Allāh wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islām; and whoever He wants to send astray - He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allāh place defilement upon those who do not believe.
