তুমি কি তাদেকে দেখনি, যারা নিজেদেরকে পূত-পবিত্র বলে থাকে অথচ পবিত্র করেন আল্লাহ যাকে ইচ্ছা তাকেই? বস্তুতঃ তাদের উপর সুতা পরিমাণ অন্যায়ও হবে না।
Have you not seen those who claim sanctity for themselves. Nay – but Allâh sanctifies whom He pleases, and they will not be dealt with injustice even equal to the extent of a Fatilâ (A scalish thread in the long slit of a datestone).
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ يُزَكُّونَ أَنفُسَهُمْ بَلِ اللّهُ يُزَكِّي مَن يَشَاء وَلاَ يُظْلَمُونَ فَتِيلاً
Alam tara ila allatheena yuzakkoona anfusahum bali Allahu yuzakkee man yashao wala yuthlamoona fateelan
YUSUFALI: Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who claim sanctity for themselves? Nay-but Allah Doth sanctify whom He pleaseth. But never will they fail to receive justice in the least little thing.
PICKTHAL: Hast thou not seen those who praise themselves for purity? Nay, Allah purifieth whom He will, and they will not be wronged even the hair upon a date-stone.
SHAKIR: Have you not considered those who attribute purity to themselves? Nay, Allah purifies whom He pleases; and they shall not be wronged the husk of a date stone.
KHALIFA: Have you noted those who exalt themselves? Instead, GOD is the One who exalts whomever He wills, without the least injustice.
