   Fair in the eyes of men Is the love of things they covet: Women and sons; Heaped-up hoards Of gold and silver; horses Branded (for blood and excellence); And (wealth of) cattle And well-tilled land. Such are the possessions Of this world's life; But in nearness to God Is the best of the goals (To return to).

   وَلَا تَسُبُّوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَيَسُبُّوا۟ ٱللَّهَ عَدْوًۢا بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۢ ۗ كَذَٰلِكَ زَيَّنَّا لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ عَمَلَهُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِم مَّرْجِعُهُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُهُم بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ

   Revile not ye Those whom they call upon Besides God, lest They out of spite Revile God In their ignorance. Thus have We made Alluring to each people' Its own doings. In the end will they Return to their Lord, And We shall then Tell them the truth Of all that they did.

   Can he who was dead, To whom We gave life, And a Light whereby He can walk amongst men, Be like him who is In the depths of darkness, From which he can Never come out? Thus to those without Faith Their own deeds seem pleasing.

   Even so, in the eyes Of most of the Pagans, Their "partners" made alluring The slaughter of their children, In order to lead them To their own destruction, And cause confusion In their religion. If God had willed, They would not have done so: But leave alone Them and their inventions.

   وَإِذْ زَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ وَقَالَ لَا غَالِبَ لَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَإِنِّى جَارٌۭ لَّكُمْ ۖ فَلَمَّا تَرَآءَتِ ٱلْفِئَتَانِ نَكَصَ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنِّى بَرِىٓءٌۭ مِّنكُمْ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰ مَا لَا تَرَوْنَ إِنِّىٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ

   Remember Satan made Their (sinful) acts seem Alluring to them, and said: "No one among men Can overcome you this day, While I am near to you": But when the two forces Came in sight of each other, He turned on his heels, And said: "Lo! I am clear Of you; to! I see What ye see not; Lo! I fear God; for God Is strict in punishment.

   Verily the transposing (Of a prohibited month) Is an addition to Unbelief: The Unbelievers are led To wrong thereby: for they make It lawful one year, And forbidden another year, In order to adjust the number Of months forbidden by God And make such forbidden ones Lawful. The evil of their course Seems pleasing to them. But God guideth not Those who reject Faith.

   When trouble toucheth a man, He crieth unto Us (In all postures)—lying down On his side, or sitting, Or standing. But when We Have solved his trouble, He passeth on his way as if He had never cried to Us For a trouble that touched him! Thus do the deeds of transgressors Seem fair in their eyes!

    أَفَمَنْ هُوَ قَآئِمٌ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ نَفْسٍۭ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ ۗ وَجَعَلُوا۟ لِلَّهِ شُرَكَآءَ قُلْ سَمُّوهُمْ ۚ أَمْ تُنَبِّـُٔونَهُۥ بِمَا لَا يَعْلَمُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَم بِظَـٰهِرٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْقَوْلِ ۗ بَلْ زُيِّنَ لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مَكْرُهُمْ وَصُدُّوا۟ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ ۗ وَمَن يُضْلِلِ ٱللَّهُ فَمَا لَهُۥ مِنْ هَادٍۢ

    Is then He Who standeth Over every soul (and knoweth) All that it doth, (Like any others)? And yet They ascribe partners to God. Say: "But name them! Is it that ye will Inform Him of something He knoweth not on earth, Or is it (just) a show Of words?" Nay! to those Who believe not, their pretence seems pleasing, but they are Kept back (thereby) from the Path. And those whom God leaves To stray, no one can guide.
