ذَلِكُم
بِأَنَّهُ
إِذَا
دُعِيَ
اللَّهُ
وَحْدَهُ
كَفَرْتُمْ
وَإِن
يُشْرَكْ
بِهِ
تُؤْمِنُوا
فَالْحُكْمُ
لِلَّهِ
الْعَلِيِّ
الْكَبِيرِ
dhālikum bi-ʾannahū ʾidhā duʿiya llāhu waḥdahū kafartum wa-ʾin yushrak bihī tuʾminū fa-l-ḥukmu li-llāhi l-ʿaliyyi l-kabīri
(The answer will be:) "This is because, when Allah was invoked as the Only (object of worship), ye did reject Faith, but when partners were joined to Him, ye believed! the Command is with Allah, Most High, Most Great!"
— Abdullah Yusufali
[They will be told,] ‘This [plight of yours] is because, when Allah was invoked alone, you would disbelieve, but if partners were ascribed to Him you would believe. So the judgment belongs to Allah, the All-exalted, the All-great.’
