۞ سَيَقُولُ Will say sayaqūlu the foolish ones l-sufahāu from mina the people l-nāsi What mā (has) turned them wallāhum from ʿan their direction of prayer qib'latihimu which allatī they were used to kānū [on it] ʿalayhā Say qul For Allah lillahi (is) the east l-mashriqu and the west wal-maghribu He guides yahdī whom man He wills yashāu to ilā a path ṣirāṭin straight mus'taqīmin
The foolish among the people will say, "What has turned them away from their qiblah,1 which they used to face?"2 Say, "To Allāh belongs the east and the west. He guides whom He wills to a straight path."
