How translators rendered it

Translation · 4 editions

These translations render verse 11:31 — the whole verse this word appears in — not this word alone. The correspondence is verse-level: no word-level alignment of translations exists for these editions, so we do not claim which English word renders this Arabic word. Compare the editions →

“I do not say to you that I possess the treasures of God, nor do I know the future, nor do I say that I am an angel. Nor do I say of those who are despicable in your eyes that God will never give them any good. God is Aware of what lies in their souls. If I did, I would be one of the wrongdoers.”
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
I say not unto you: "I have the treasures of Allah" nor "I have knowledge of the Unseen," nor say I: "Lo! I am an angel!" Nor say I unto those whom your eyes scorn that Allah will not give them good - Allah knoweth best what is in their hearts - Lo! then indeed I should be of the wrong-doers
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
And I tell you not that with me are the treasures of God: nor do I say, 'I know the things unseen;' nor do I say, 'I am an angel;' nor do I say of those whom you eye with scorn, No good thing will God bestow on them: - God best knoweth what is in their minds - for then should I be one of those who act unjustly
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
I do not say that I have the treasures of God; nor do I know the unseen; nor do I say, " Verily, I am an angel; " nor do I say of those whom your eyes despise, "God will never give them any good!"- God knows best what is in their souls - verily, then should I be of the unjust
