How translators rendered it

Translation · 5 editions

These translations render verse 4:143 — 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 →

Wavering in between, neither with these, nor with those. Whomever God sends astray, you will never find for him a way
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
Swaying between this (and that), (belonging) neither to these nor to those. He whom Allah causeth to go astray, thou (O Muhammad) wilt not find a way for him
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
Wavering between the one and the other - belonging neither to these nor those! and by no means shalt thou find a path for him whom God misleadeth
Translation · John Medows Rodwell (1861)Public Domain
wavering between the two, neither to these nor yet to those! but whomsoever God doth lead astray thou shall not find for him a way
Translation · Edward Henry Palmer (1880)Public Domain
waverings between that not to these and not to these and whoever he leads astray Allah so never you find for him path

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.
