فَإِذَا

رَكِبُوا

فِي

الْفُلْكِ

دَعَوُا

اللَّهَ

مُخْلِصِينَ

لَهُ

الدِّينَ

فَلَمَّا

نَجَّاهُمْ

إِلَى

الْبَرِّ

إِذَا

هُمْ

يُشْرِكُونَ

fa-ʾidhā rakibū l-fulki daʿawu llāha mukhliṣīna lahu d-dīna fa-lammā najjāhum ʾilā l-barri ʾidhā hum yushrikūna

When they board the ship, they invoke Allah putting exclusive faith in Him, but when He delivers them to land, behold, they ascribe partners [to Him],

Ali Quli Qarai

Now, if they embark on a boat, they call on Allah, making their devotion sincerely (and exclusively) to Him; but when He has delivered them safely to (dry) land, behold, they give a share (of their worship to others)!-

Abdullah Yusufali
