Sura 42
Aya 24
24
أَم يَقولونَ افتَرىٰ عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا ۖ فَإِن يَشَإِ اللَّهُ يَختِم عَلىٰ قَلبِكَ ۗ وَيَمحُ اللَّهُ الباطِلَ وَيُحِقُّ الحَقَّ بِكَلِماتِهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ عَليمٌ بِذاتِ الصُّدورِ

Yusuf Ali

What! Do they say, “He has forged a falsehood against God.? But if God willed, He could seal up1 thy heart. And God blots out Vanity, and proves the Truth by His Words. For He knows well the secrets of all hearts.
  • If anyone has a doubt about a prophet’s mission, let him look at the prophet’s life, at his work, at his character. God loves Truth, not Falsehood. God’s aid goes with Truth, not with Falsehood. The beauty and power of God’s Word cannot be found in Falsehood. The false man’s heart would be sealed, not expanded to new heights, as is that of the Message-bearer of God.
