Surah Yunus, verse 36

Each word opens its meaning.

﴿٣٦﴾

Tap a word for its meaning and pronunciation, then open its page.

وما يتبع اكثرهم الا ظنا ان الظن لا يغني من الحق شيئا ان الله عليم بما يفعلون

But most of them follow Nothing but fancy: truly Fancy can be of no avail Against Truth. Verily God Is well aware of all That they do.
