Have you not seen those who claim to have believed in what was revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], and what was revealed before you? They wish to refer legislation to ṭāghūt, while they were commanded to reject it; and Satan wishes to lead them far astray.

(நபியே!) உம்மீது இறக்கப்பட்ட இ(வ் வேதத்)தையும், உமக்கு முன்னால் இறக்கப்பட்ட (வேதங்கள் அனைத்)தையும் நம்புவதாக வாதித்துக் கொண்டிருப்போரை நீர் பார்க்கவில்லையா? - (எந்த ஷைத்தானை) நிராகரிக்க வேண்டும் என்று அவர்களுக்கு கட்டளையிடப்பட்டிருக்கிறதோ அந்த ஷைத்தானைத் தீர்ப்புக் கூறுபவனாக ஏற்றுக் கொள்ள வேண்டுமென விரும்புகிறார்கள் - அந்த ஷைத்தானோ அவர்களை வெகு தூரமான வழிகேட்டில் தள்ளிவிட விரும்புகிறான்.

නුඹ වෙත පහළ කරනු ලැබූ දෑ ද නුඹට පෙර පහළ කරනු ලැබූ දෑ ද ඇත්තෙන් ම තමන් විශ්වාස කළ බවට සිතමින් සිටි අය දෙස නුඹ නො බැලුවෙහි ද? ඔවුහු නපුරු බලවේගයන් වෙත තීන්දු පැතීමට අපේක්ෂා කරති. සැබැවින් ම එය ප්‍රතික්ෂේප කරන ලෙස ඔවුහු නියෝග කරනු ලැබ සිටියහ. තවද ෂෙයිතාන් අන්ත මුළාවක ඔවුන්ව මුළා කිරීමට අපේක්ෂා කරයි.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
کیا آپ نے انہیں نہیں دیکھا؟ جن کا دعویٰ تو یہ ہے کہ جو کچھ آپ پر اور جو کچھ آپ سے پہلے اتارا گیا ہے اس پر ان کا ایمان ہے، لیکن وه اپنے فیصلے غیر اللہ کی طرف لے جانا چاہتے ہیں حاﻻنکہ انہین حکم دیا گیا ہے کہ شیطان کا انکار کریں، شیطان تو یہ چاہتا ہے کہ انہیں بہکا کر دور ڈال دے۔

あなたは,かのあなたに下されたもの,およびあなた以前に下されたものを信じると,ただロ走っている者たちを見なかったのか。かれらは邪神を拒むよう,命じられているにも拘らず,その(争議の)裁定のため,互いに邪神に頼ろうと望んでいる。また悪魔は,かれらが(正道から)遠く迷い去るように導こうと望んでいる。

难道你没有看见吗?自称确信降示你的经典和在你之前降示的经典的人,欲向恶魔起诉棗同时他们已奉令不要信仰他棗而恶魔欲使他们深入迷误中。

Tafsir of 4:60
