أَفَنَضْرِبُ عَنكُمُ ٱلذِّكْرَ صَفْحًا أَن كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّسْرِفِينَ Qur’an Az-Zukhruf (43:5)
Afana d ribu AAankumu a l thth ikra s af h an an kuntum qawman musrifeen a
[O YOU who deny the truth!] Should We, perchance, withdraw this reminder from you altogether, seeing that you are people bent on wasting your own selves?5.
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

For this rendering of the term musrif, see note [21] on the last sentence of 10:12 . The above rhetorical question answers itself, of course, in the negative - implying that God never ceases to "remind" the sinner through His revelations, and always accepts repentance.

Should We take this Reminder away from you and ignore you because you are a nation who has transgressed all limits?
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Should We then turn the 'Quranic' Reminder away from you 'simply' because you have been a transgressing people?
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
Shall We utterly ignore you because ye are a wanton folk?
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke Pickthall
Shall We then take away the Message from you and repel (you) for that ye are a people transgressing beyond bounds? 4607
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

In vouchsafing Revelation, what an inestimable Mercy has Allah conferred on mankind! Yet so many deluded souls are ungrateful, and ignore or oppose its teaching. If it were not for His attributes of Forgiveness and Forbearing He would be justified in withdrawing that Light, but He continues to shed it, that all who will may come and be blessed by it.
