اَمْ لَهُمْ شُرَكٰۤؤُا شَرَعُوْا لَهُمْ مِّنَ الدِّيْنِ مَا لَمْ يَأْذَنْۢ بِهِ اللّٰهُ ۗوَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةُ الْفَصْلِ لَقُضِيَ بَيْنَهُمْ ۗوَاِنَّ الظّٰلِمِيْنَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ اَلِيْمٌ ( الشورى: ٢١ )
Am lahum shurakaaa'u shara'oo lahum minad deeni maa lam yaazam bihil laah; wa law laa kalimatul fasli laqudiya bainahum; wa innaz zaalimeena lahum 'azaabun aleem (aš-Šūrā 42:21)
English Sahih:
Or have they partners [i.e., other deities] who have ordained for them a religion to which Allah has not consented? But if not for the decisive word, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, the wrongdoers will have a painful punishment. (Ash-Shuraa [42] : 21)
Muhammad Hamidullah:
Ou bien auraient-ils des associés [à Allah] qui auraient établi pour eux des lois religieuses qu'Allah n'a jamais permises? Or, si l'arrêt décisif n'avait pas été prononcé, il aurait été tranché entre eux. Les injustes auront certes un châtiment douloureux. (Ach-Chura [42] : 21)
