Rowwad Translation Center — 210

10:15 When Our verses are recited to them clearly, those who do not expect to meet Us say, “Bring us a different Qur’an, or make changes in it[1].” Say, “It is not for me to change it on my own accord; I only follow what is revealed to me. If I were to disobey my Lord, I fear the punishment of a momentous Day.”

10:16 Say, “If Allah had willed, I would not have recited it to you, nor would He have made it known to you. I have spent a lifetime[1] among you before this. Do you not then understand?”

10:17 Who does greater wrong than he who fabricates lies against Allah or rejects His verses? Indeed, the wicked will never succeed.

10:18 They worship besides Allah those who can neither harm nor benefit them, saying, “These are our intercessors with Allah.” Say, “Do you inform Allah of what He does not know in the heavens or on the earth? Glorified and Exalted is He far above what they associate [with Him]!”

10:19 The whole of mankind was but a single community, then they differed[1]. If it had not been for a prior decree from your Lord, a decisive judgment would have been passed between them concerning their differences[2].

10:20 They say, “Why has no sign[1] been sent down to him from his Lord?” Say [O Prophet], “The unseen belongs to Allah alone. Wait then; I too am waiting with you.”
