Surah 60. Al-Mumtahana, Ayah 6
| لَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِيهِمْ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو اللَّهَ وَالْيَوْمَ الْآخِرَ ۚ وَمَنْ يَتَوَلَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ |
| Transliteration | : | la- qad kaana la- -kum fe -him 'uswah h.asanah li- man kaana yarjo 'allaah wa- al- yawm al- 'aakhir wa- man yatawalla fa- 'inna 'allaah huwa al- ghaney al- h.amed |
| Pickthall | : | Verily ye have in them a goodly pattern for everyone who looketh to Allah and the Last Day. And whosoever may turn away, lo! still Allah, He is the Absolute, the Owner of Praise. |
| Asad | : | In them, indeed, you have a good example for everyone who looks forward [with hope and awe8] to God and the Last Day. And if any turns away, [let him know that] God is truly self-sufficient, the One to whom all praise is due. |
| Malik | : | Truly, in those there is an excellent example for everyone who puts their hopes in Allah and the Last Day. He that gives no heed should know that Allah is free of all wants, worthy of all praise. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | There was indeed in them an excellent example for you to follow for those whose hope is in Allah and in the Last Day. But if any turn away truly Allah is Free of all Wants Worthy of all Praise. 5418 5419 |

Note - 5419If any one rejects Allah's Message or Law, the loss is
his own. It is not Allah Who needs him or his worship or
his sacrifice or his praise. Allah is independent of all
wants, and His attributes are inherently deserving of all
praise, whether the wicked give such praise or not, in
word or deed.
