وَلَئِنْ And even if wala-in you come atayta (to) those who alladhīna were given ūtū the Book l-kitāba with all bikulli (the) signs āyatin not mā they would follow tabiʿū your direction of prayer qib'lataka and not wamā (will) you (be) anta a follower bitābiʿin (of) their direction of prayer qib'latahum And not wamā some of them baʿḍuhum (are) followers bitābiʿin (of the) direction of prayer qib'lata (of each) other baʿḍin And if wala-ini you followed ittabaʿta their desires ahwāahum from min after baʿdi [what] mā came to you jāaka of mina the knowledge l-ʿil'mi indeed, you innaka (would) then idhan (be) surely among lamina the wrongdoers l-ẓālimīna
And if you brought to those who were given the Scripture every sign, they would not follow your qiblah. Nor will you be a follower of their qiblah. Nor would they be followers of one another's qiblah. So if you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, indeed, you would then be among the wrongdoers.
