Each word opens its meaning.

﴿١١٤﴾

Without diacritics

ومن اظلم ممن منع مساجد الله ان يذكر فيها اسمه وسعى في خرابها اولئك ما كان لهم ان يدخلوها الا خائفين لهم في الدنيا خزي ولهم في الاخرة عذاب عظيم

And who is more unjust Than he who forbids That in places for the worship Of God, God's name should be Celebrated?—whose zeal Is (in fact) to ruin them? It was not fitting that such Should themselves enter them Except in fear. For them There is nothing but disgrace In this world, and in the world To come, an exceeding torment.
