أَلَمْ
تَرَ
إِلَى
الَّذِينَ
يَزْعُمُونَ
أَنَّهُمْ
آمَنُوا
بِمَا
أُنزِلَ
إِلَيْكَ
وَمَا
أُنزِلَ
مِن
قَبْلِكَ
يُرِيدُونَ
أَن
يَتَحَاكَمُوا
إِلَى
الطَّاغُوتِ
وَقَدْ
أُمِرُوا
أَن
يَكْفُرُوا
بِهِ
وَيُرِيدُ
الشَّيْطَانُ
أَن
يُضِلَّهُمْ
ضَلَالًا
بَعِيدًا

Have you not regarded those who claim that they believe in what has been sent down to you and what was sent down before you? They desire to seek the judgment of fake deities, though they were commanded to reject them, and Satan desires to lead them astray into far error.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who declare that they believe in the revelations that have come to thee and to those before thee? Their (real) wish is to resort together for judgment (in their disputes) to the Evil One, though they were ordered to reject him. But Satan's wish is to lead them astray far away (from the right).
