In context
Quranic text · Tanzil Uthmani 1.1How translators rendered it
Translation · 5 editionsThese translations render verse 21:42 — 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 →
Say, “Who guards you against the Merciful by night and by day?” But they turn away from the mention of their LordSay: Who guardeth you in the night or in the day from the Beneficent? Nay, but they turn away from mention of their LordSAY: Who shall protect you by night and by day from the God of Mercy? Yet turn they away from the warning of their LordSay, 'Who shall guard you by night and by day from the Merciful?' Nay, but they from the mention of their Lord do turn asidesay who he guards you by the night and the daytime from the All-Merciful rather they from reminder of their Sustainer one turning asidesGenerated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
