يُرِيدُونَ
لِيُطْفِئُوا
نُورَ
اللَّهِ
بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ
وَاللَّهُ
مُتِمُّ
نُورِهِ
وَلَوْ
كَرِهَ
الْكَافِرُونَ
yurīdūna li-yuṭfiʾū nūra llāhi bi-ʾafwāhihim wa-llāhu mutimmu nūrihī wa-law kariha l-kāfirūna
They desire to put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light though the faithless should be averse.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Their intention is to extinguish Allah's Light (by blowing) with their mouths: But Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it).
