Surah 20. Ta-ha, Ayah 16
| فَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكَ عَنْهَا مَنْ لَا يُؤْمِنُ بِهَا وَاتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ فَتَرْدَىٰ |
| Transliteration | : | fa- laa yas.uddanna -ka can -haa man laa yu'min bi- -haa wa- ittabaca hawaa -hu fa- tardaa |
| Pickthall | : | Therefor, let not him turn thee aside from (the thought of) it who believeth not therein but followeth his own desire, lest thou perish. |
| Asad | : | Hence, let not anyone who does not believe in its coming13 and follows [but] his own desires divert thee from [belief in] it, lest thou perish! |
| Malik | : | Therefore, let not any, who does not believe in this fact and follow his own desires, turn your away, lest you should perish." |
| Yusuf Ali | : | "Therefore let not such as believe not therein but follow their own lusts divert thee therefrom lest thou perish!" 2547 |
Note - 13Lit., "in it".

Note - 2547Moses had yet to meet the formidable opposition of the
arrogant, Pharaoh and his proud Egyptians, and latter,
the rebellion of his own people. In receiving his
commission, he is warned of both dangers. This relates to
man's own soul: when once the light reaches him, let him
hold fast to it lest he perish. He will be beset with
dangers of all kinds around him...the worst will be the
danger of unbelieving people who seem to thrive on their
selfishness and in following their own vain desires!
