"அவளும், அவளுடைய சமூகத்தார்களும் அல்லாஹ்வையன்றி, சூரியனுக்கு ஸுஜூது செய்வதை நான் கண்டேன்; அவர்களுடைய (இத்தவறான) செயல்களை அவர்களுக்கு ஷைத்தான் அழகாகக் காண்பித்து, அவர்களை நேரான வழியிலிருந்து தடுத்துள்ளான்; ஆகவே அவர்கள் நேர்வழி பெறவில்லை.

තවද ඇය හා ඇයගේ ජනයා අල්ලාහ් හැර දමා හිරුට සුජූද් කරනු මම දුටුවෙමි. තවද ඔවුනට ඔවුන්ගේ ක්‍රියාවන් ෂෙයිතාන් අලංකාර කර පෙන්වා (ඍජු) මාර්ගයෙන් ඔවුන් වළක්වා ඇත. එහෙයින් ඔවුහු මගපෙන්වීම් නො ලබති.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi

わたしはかの女とその民が,アッラーを差し置いて太陽を拝んでいるのを見届けました。そして悪魔が,かれらに自分たちの行いを立派だと思い込ませ,正道からかれらを閉め出しているので,正しく導かれておりません。

我发现她和她的臣民都舍真主而崇拜太阳,恶魔曾以他们的行为,迷惑他们,以至阻碍他们走上正道,所以他们不遵循正道。
