Had God willed, they would not have practiced idolatry. We did not appoint you as a guardian over them, and you are not a manager over them

Had Allah willed, they had not been idolatrous. We have not set thee as a keeper over them, nor art thou responsible for them

Had God pleased, they had not joined other gods with Him: and we have not made thee keeper over them, neither art thou a guardian over them

But had God pleased, they would not have associated aught with Him; but we have not made thee a keeper over them, nor art thou for them a warder

if he willed Allah what they associated and not We made upon them keeper and not You upon them by trustee

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.
