أَلَمْ
تَرَ
إِلَى
الَّذِينَ
يُزَكُّونَ
أَنفُسَهُم
بَلِ
اللَّهُ
يُزَكِّي
مَن
يَشَاءُ
وَلَا
يُظْلَمُونَ
فَتِيلًا
ʾa-lam tara ʾilā lladhīna yuzakkūna ʾanfusahum bali llāhu yuzakkī man yashāʾu wa-lā yuẓlamūna fatīlan-i
Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who claim sanctity for themselves? Nay-but Allah Doth sanctify whom He pleaseth. But never will they fail to receive justice in the least little thing.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Have you not regarded those who style themselves as pure? Indeed, it is Allah who purifies whomever He wishes, and they will not be wronged [so much as] a single date-thread.
