وَاللَّهُ
يُرِيدُ
أَن
يَتُوبَ
عَلَيْكُمْ
وَيُرِيدُ
الَّذِينَ
يَتَّبِعُونَ
الشَّهَوَاتِ
أَن
تَمِيلُوا
مَيْلًا
عَظِيمًا
wa-llāhu yurīdu ʾan yatūba ʿalaykum wa-yurīdu lladhīna yattabiʿūna sh-shahawāti ʾan tamīlū maylan ʿaẓīman
Allah desires to turn toward you clemently, but those who pursue their [base] appetites desire that you fall into gross waywardness.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Allah doth wish to Turn to you, but the wish of those who follow their lusts is that ye should turn away (from Him),- far, far away.
