وَلِلَّهِ ٱلْمَشْرِقُ وَٱلْمَغْرِبُ ۚ فَأَيْنَمَا تُوَلُّوا۟ فَثَمَّ وَجْهُ ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ
Walill a hi almashriqu wa a lmaghribu faaynam a tuwalloo fathamma wajhu All a hi inna All a ha w a siAAun AAaleem un
And God's is the east and the west: and wherever you turn, there is God's countenance. Behold, God is infinite, all-knowing.
  - Mohammad Asad
To Allah belong the East and the West; whichever direction you turn your face there is the presence of Allah. Surely Allah is All-Embracing and All-Knowing.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
To Allah belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn you are facing 'towards' Allah.1 Surely Allah is All-Encompassing,2 All-Knowing.
  - Mustafa Khattab

 lit., wherever you turn, there is the Face of Allah.

 His mercy and knowledge covers all.

Unto Allah belong the East and the West, and whithersoever ye turn, there is Allah's countenance. Lo! Allah is All Embracing, All Knowing.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
To Allah belong the East and the West; whithersoever ye turn there is the presence of Allah. For Allah is All-Pervading All-Knowing. 118
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The word translated "Presence" is Wajh, literally "face." - See note to ii. 112 above.
