افرايت من اتخذ الهه هواه واضله الله على علم وختم على سمعه وقلبه وجعل على بصره غشاوة فمن يهديه من بعد الله افلا تذكرون

Then seest thou such A one as takes As his god his own Vain desire? God has, Knowing (him as such), Left him astray, and sealed His hearing and his heart (And understanding), and put A cover on his sight. Who, then, will guide him After God (has withdrawn Guidance)? Will ye not Then receive admonition?
