In context
Quranic text · Tanzil Uthmani 1.1How translators rendered it
Translation · 5 editionsThese translations render verse 29:16 — 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 →

(Remember) when he said unto his folk: Serve Allah, and keep your duty unto Him; that is better for you if ye did but knowAnd Abraham; when he said to his people, "Worship God and fear Him. This will be best for you, if ye have knowledgeAnd Abraham when he said to his people, 'Serve God and fear Him, that is better for you if ye did but knowand Ibrahim when he said for his people serve Allah and guard against that good for you if you were you knowGenerated 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.
