ومن الناس من يتخذ من دون الله اندادا يحبونهم كحب الله والذين امنوا اشد حبا لله ولو يرى الذين ظلموا اذ يرون العذاب ان القوة لله جميعا وان الله شديد العذاب

Yet there are men Who take (for worship) Others besides God, As equal (with God): They love them As they should love God. But those of Faith are Overflowing in their love For God. If only The unrighteous could see, Behold, they would see The Penalty: that to God Belongs all power, and God Will strongly enforce The Penalty.
