(unto Allah): Where are (now) those partners of your make believe?
Yusuf Ali
22. One day shall We gather them all together: We shall say to those who ascribed partners 
(to Us): "Where are the partners whom ye (invented and) talked about?"

23. Then will they have no contention save that they will say: By Allah, our Lord, we 
never were idolaters.
Yusuf Ali

failed them!
Yusuf Ali

M.Pickthall
25. Of them are some who listen unto thee, but We have placed upon their hearts veils, 
lest they should understand, and in their ears a deafness. If they saw every token they 
would not believe therein; to the point that, when they come unto thee to argue with 
thee, the disbelievers say: This is naught else than fables of the men of old.
Yusuf Ali
25. Of them there are some who (pretend to) listen to thee; but We have thrown veils 
on their hearts so they understand it not and deafness in their ears; if they saw every 
one of the Signs not they will believe in them; in so much that when they come to thee 
they (but) dispute with thee; the unbelievers say: "These are nothing but tales of 
the ancients."





M.Pickthall

might return! Then would we not deny the revelations of our Lord but we would be of 
the believers!
Yusuf Ali
27. If thou couldst but see when they are confronted with the fire!  They will say: 
"Would that we were but sent back! then would we not reject the Signs of our Lord but 
would be amongst those who believe!.





M.Pickthall
28. Nay, but that hath become clear unto them which before they used to hide. And if 
they were sent back they would return unto that which they are forbidden. Lo! they 
are liars.
Yusuf Ali
28. Yea in their own (eyes) will become manifest what before they concealed but if 
they were returned they would certainly relapse to the things they were forbidden 
for they are indeed liars.





M.Pickthall
29. And they say: There is naught save our life of the world, and we shall not be 
raised (again).
Yusuf Ali

this real? They will say: Yea, verily, by our Lord! He will say: Taste now the 
retribution for that ye used to disbelieve.
Yusuf Ali
30. If thou couldst but see when they are confronted with their Lord!  He will 
say: "Is not this the truth?"  They will say: "Yea by our Lord!" He will say: "Taste 
ye then the penalty because ye rejected faith."
