Surat Aş-Şāffāt - سورة الصافات

وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَانٍ ۖ بَلْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا طَاغِينَ

: "And we had no authority over you. Nay! But you were transgressing people (disobedient, polytheists, and disbelievers).

فَحَقَّ عَلَيْنَا قَوْلُ رَبِّنَا ۖ إِنَّا لَذَائِقُونَ

: "So now the Word of our Lord has been justified against us, that we shall certainly (have to) taste (the torment).

فَأَغْوَيْنَاكُمْ إِنَّا كُنَّا غَاوِينَ

: "So we led you astray because we were ourselves astray."

فَإِنَّهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي الْعَذَابِ مُشْتَرِكُونَ

: Then verily, that Day, they will (all) share in the torment.

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِالْمُجْرِمِينَ

: Certainly, that is how We deal with Al-Mujrimun (polytheists, sinners, criminals, the disobedient to Allah, etc.).

إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ

: Truly, when it was said to them: La ilaha ill-Allah "(none has the right to be worshipped but Allah)," they puffed themselves up with pride (i.e. denied it).

وَيَقُولُونَ أَئِنَّا لَتَارِكُو آلِهَتِنَا لِشَاعِرٍ مَّجْنُونٍ

: And (they) said: "Are we going to abandon our aliha (gods) for the sake of a mad poet?
