Surah Muhammad, verse 3

Each word opens its meaning.

﴿٣﴾

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

Without diacritics

ذلك بان الذين كفروا اتبعوا الباطل وان الذين امنوا اتبعوا الحق من ربهم كذلك يضرب الله للناس امثالهم

This because those who Reject God follow vanities, While those who believe follow The Truth from their Lord: Thus does God set forth For men their lessons By similitudes.
