How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 29:22 — 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 →

You cannot escape, on earth or in the heaven; and you have no protector and no savior besides God
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
Ye cannot escape (from Him) in the earth or in the sky, and beside Allah there is for you no friend or helper
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
And ye shall not invalidate his power either in the Earth or in the Heaven: and, save God, ye shall have neither patron nor helper
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
Nor can ye make Him helpless in the earth, nor in the heavens; nor have ye beside God a patron or a helper
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
and not you by one who escapes in the earth and not in the sky and not for you from apart from Allah from ally and not helper

Generated 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.
