Translation of Verse 189-206

189. He is the One Who created you from a single soul, then from it made its spouse so he may find comfort in her. After he had been united with her, she carried a light burden that developed gradually. When it grew heavy, they prayed to Allah, their Lord, "If you grant us good offspring, we will certainly be grateful."

190. But when He granted their descendants good offspring, they associated false gods in what He has given them. Exalted is Allah above what they associate ˹with Him˺!

191. Do they associate ˹with Allah˺ those ˹idols˺ which cannot create anything, but are in fact created;

192. which cannot help them, or even help themselves?

193. And if you ˹idolaters˺ call upon them for guidance, they cannot respond to you. It is all the same whether you call them or remain silent.

194. Those ˹idols˺ you invoke besides Allah are created beings like yourselves. So call upon them and see if they will answer you, if your claims are true!

195. Do they have feet to walk with? Or hands to hold with? Or eyes to see with? Or ears to hear with? Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ "Call upon your associate-gods and conspire against me without delay!

196. "Indeed, my Protector is Allah Who has revealed this Book. For He ˹alone˺ protects the righteous.

197. But those ˹false gods˺ you call besides Him can neither help you nor even themselves."

198. If you ˹idolaters˺ call them to guidance, they cannot hear. And you ˹O Prophet˺ may see them facing towards you, but they cannot see.

199. Be gracious, enjoin what is right, and turn away from those who act ignorantly.

200. If you are tempted by Satan, then seek refuge with Allah. Surely He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

201. Indeed, when Satan whispers to those mindful ˹of Allah˺, they remember ˹their Lord˺ then they start to see ˹things˺ clearly.

202. But the devils persistently plunge their ˹human˺ associates 337 deeper into wickedness, sparing no effort.

203. If you ˹O Prophet˺ do not bring them a sign ˹which they demanded˺, they ask, "Why do you not make it yourself?" Say, "I only follow what is revealed to me from my Lord. This ˹Quran˺ is an insight from your Lord-a guide and a mercy for those who believe."

204. When the Quran is recited, listen to it attentively and be silent, so you may be shown mercy.

205. Remember your Lord inwardly with humility and reverence and in a moderate tone of voice, both morning and evening. And do not be one of the heedless.

206. Surely those ˹angels˺ nearest to your Lord are not too proud to worship Him. They glorify Him. And to Him they prostrate.
