اَوَمَنْ كَانَ مَیْتًا فَاَحْیَیْنَاهُ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُ نُورًا یَمْشٖی بِهٖ فِی النَّاسِ كَمَنْ مَثَلُهُ فِی الظُّلُمَاتِ لَیْسَ بِخَارِجٍ مِنْهَاؕ كَذٰلِكَ زُیِّنَ لِلْكَافِرٖینَ مَا كَانُوا یَعْمَلُونَ
Awa man kana maytan faahyaynahu wajaAAalna lahu nooran yamshee bihi fee alnnasi kaman mathaluhu fee alththulumati laysa bikharijin minha kathalika zuyyina lilkafireena ma kanoo yaAAmaloona
Translations
And is one who was dead and We gave him life and made for him light by which to walk among the people like one who is in darkness, never to emerge therefrom? Thus it has been made pleasing to the disbelievers that which they were doing
Saheeh International
Is he who was dead and We have raised him unto life, and set for him a light wherein he walketh among men, as him whose similitude is in utter darkness whence he cannot emerge? Thus is their conduct made fairseeming for the disbelievers
Marmaduke Pickthall
