Surah 42. Ash-Shura, Ayah 9
| أَمِ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ ۖ فَاللَّهُ هُوَ الْوَلِيُّ وَهُوَ يُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ |
| Transliteration | : | 'am ittakhadho min doni -hi awliyaa' fa- 'allaah huwa al- waley wa- huwa yuh.ye al- mawtaa wa- huwa calaa kull shay' qader |
| Pickthall | : | Or have they chosen protecting friends besides Him? But Allah, He (alone) is the Protecting Friend. He quickeneth the dead, and He is Able to do all things. |
| Asad | : | Did they, perchance, [think that they could] choose protectors other than Him? But God alone is the Protector [of all that exists], since it is He alone who brings the dead to life, and He alone who has the power to will anything. |
| Malik | : | Have they set up other guardians beside Him, while Allah Alone is the Guardian? It is He Who gives life to the dead and it is He Who has power over all things. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | What! Have they taken (for worship) protectors besides Him? But it is Allah He is the Protector and it is He Who gives life to the dead: it is He Who has power over all things. 4537 |
Note - 4537There can be no greater ingratitude or blasphemy than to
worship false gods, or to seek protection from things
that have no power, when Allah-Who has power over all
things-is always seeking to protect and cherish His
creatures, and placing in their way all the means for
attaining the best in them.
