مَن
كَانَ
يَظُنُّ
أَن
لَّن
يَنصُرَهُ
اللَّهُ
فِي
الدُّنْيَا
وَالْآخِرَةِ
فَلْيَمْدُدْ
بِسَبَبٍ
إِلَى
السَّمَاءِ
ثُمَّ
لْيَقْطَعْ
فَلْيَنظُرْ
هَلْ
يُذْهِبَنَّ
كَيْدُهُ
مَا
يَغِيظُ
man kāna yaẓunnu ʾan lan yanṣurahu llāhu fī d-dunyā wa-l-ʾākhirati fa-l-yamdud bi-sababin ʾilā s-samāʾi thumma l-yaqṭaʿ fa-l-yanẓur hal yudhhibanna kayduhū mā yaghīẓu
If any think that Allah will not help him (His Messenger) in this world and the Hereafter, let him stretch out a rope to the ceiling and cut (himself) off: then let him see whether his plan will remove that which enrages (him)!
— Abdullah Yusufali
Whoever thinks that Allah will not help him in this world and the Hereafter, let him stretch a rope to the ceiling and hang himself, and see if his artifice would remove his rage.
