১৬:৬২

وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِلَّهِ مَا يَكْرَهُونَ وَتَصِفُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمُ الْكَذِبَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ الْحُسْنَىٰ ۖ لَا جَرَمَ أَنَّ لَهُمُ النَّارَ وَأَنَّهُمْ مُفْرَطُونَ

আৰু সিহঁতে যি অপছন্দ কৰে সেইটোৱেই আল্লাহৰ প্ৰতি আৰোপ কৰে। সিহঁতৰ জিভাই মিছা বিৱৰণ দিয়ে যে, মঙ্গল কেৱল সিহঁতৰ বাবেই। নিঃসন্দেহে সিহঁতৰ বাবে আছে অগ্নি, আৰু নিশ্চয় সিহঁতকেই সৰ্বপ্ৰথম তাত নিক্ষেপ কৰা হ’ব।

16:62 As it is, they ascribe to God something that they [themselves] dislike(*1) -and [all the while] their tongues utter the lie that [by doing so] they earn supreme merit!(*2) Truly, they earn but the fire, and will be left out [of God's grace]!(*3)

Note(*1)

I.e., "daughters" (see verses 16:57-59 above): but this alludes also, to the association with God of imaginary beings which allegedly have a share in His power and thus nullify the concept of His uniqueness: in other words, while the people spoken of here would hate to see their own legitimate spheres of influence encroached upon and curtailed by rivals, they do not extend the same consideration to their idea of God(as).

Note(*2)

Lit., "that theirs is the supreme good (al-husna )" - i.e., in the sight of God - because they regard their own religious or anti-religious views, in spite of their absurdity, as good and true'. This interpretation of al-husna in the above context connects logically with the statement in the next verse(16:63) that "Satan had made their own doings seem goodly to them"

Note(*3)

Lit., "theirs [or "their portion"] will be the fire, and they will be abandoned".
