فَلَمّا آتاهُما صالِحًا جَعَلا لَهُ شُرَكاءَ فيما آتاهُما ۚ فَتَعالَى اللَّهُ عَمّا يُشرِكونَ

But when He gives them a good [child], they ascribe partners to Him concerning that which He has given them. Exalted is Allah above what they associate with Him.

أَيُشرِكونَ ما لا يَخلُقُ شَيئًا وَهُم يُخلَقونَ

Do they associate with Him those who create nothing and they are [themselves] created?

وَلا يَستَطيعونَ لَهُم نَصرًا وَلا أَنفُسَهُم يَنصُرونَ

And the false deities are unable to [give] them help, nor can they help themselves.

وَإِن تَدعوهُم إِلَى الهُدىٰ لا يَتَّبِعوكُم ۚ سَواءٌ عَلَيكُم أَدَعَوتُموهُم أَم أَنتُم صامِتونَ

And if you [believers] invite them to guidance, they will not follow you. It is all the same for you whether you invite them or you are silent.

إِنَّ الَّذينَ تَدعونَ مِن دونِ اللَّهِ عِبادٌ أَمثالُكُم ۖ فَادعوهُم فَليَستَجيبوا لَكُم إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

Indeed, those you [polytheists] call upon besides Allah are servants like you. So call upon them and let them respond to you, if you should be truthful.

إِنَّ وَلِيِّيَ اللَّهُ الَّذي نَزَّلَ الكِتابَ ۖ وَهُوَ يَتَوَلَّى الصّالِحينَ

Indeed, my protector is Allah, who has sent down the Book; and He is an ally to the righteous.

وَالَّذينَ تَدعونَ مِن دونِهِ لا يَستَطيعونَ نَصرَكُم وَلا أَنفُسَهُم يَنصُرونَ

And those you call upon besides Him are unable to help you, nor can they help themselves."

وَإِن تَدعوهُم إِلَى الهُدىٰ لا يَسمَعوا ۖ وَتَراهُم يَنظُرونَ إِلَيكَ وَهُم لا يُبصِرونَ

And if you invite them to guidance, they do not hear; and you see them looking at you while they do not see.

خُذِ العَفوَ وَأمُر بِالعُرفِ وَأَعرِض عَنِ الجاهِلينَ

Take what is given freely, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the ignorant.

وَإِمّا يَنزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّيطانِ نَزغٌ فَاستَعِذ بِاللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ سَميعٌ عَليمٌ

And if an evil suggestion comes to you from Satan, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is Hearing and Knowing.
