Quran 33:12 — Al-Ahzaab, verse 12

M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation

the hypocrites and the sick at heart said, ‘God and His Messenger promised us nothing but delusions!’

وَإِذْ يَقُولُ الْمُنَافِقُونَ وَالَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَضٌ مَا وَعَدَنَا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ إِلَّا غُرُورًا

wa-idh yaqūlu l-munāfiqūna wa-alladhīna fī qulūbihim maraḍun mā waʿadanā l-lahu warasūluhu illā ghurūran
