mad): It is not for me to change it of my
accord. I only follow that which is inspired in me. Lo! if I disobey my
Lord I fear the retribution of an awful Day.

S: And when Our clear communications are recited to them, those who hope
not for Our meeting say: Bring a Quran other than this or change it.
Say: It does not beseem me that I should change it of myself; I follow
naught but what is revealed to me; surely I fear, if I disobey my Lord,
the punishment of a mighty day.

Y: Say: "If Allah had so willed, I should not have rehearsed it to you,
nor would He have made it known to you. A whole life-time before this
have I tarried amongst you: will ye not then understand?"

P: Say: If Allah had so willed I should not have recited it to you nor
would He have made it known to you. I dwelt among you a whole lifetime
before it (came to me). Have ye then no sense?

S: Say: If Allah had desired (otherwise) I would not have recited it to
you, nor would He have taught it to you; indeed I have lived a lifetime
among you before it; do you not then understand?

Y: Who doth more wrong than such as forge a lie against Allah, or deny
His Signs? But never will prosper those who sin.

P: Who doeth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie concerning Allah
and denieth His revelations? Lo! the guilty never are successful.

S: Who is then more unjust than who forges a lie against Allah or (who)
gives the lie to His communications? Surely the guilty shall not be
successful.

Y: They serve, besides Allah, things that hurt them not nor profit them,
and they say: "These are our intercessors with Allah." Say: "Do ye
indeed inform Allah of something He knows not, in the heavens or on
earth?- Glory to Him! and far is He above the partners they ascribe (to
Him)!"

P: They worship beside Allah that which neither hurteth them nor
profiteth them, and they say: These are our intercessors with Allah.
Say: Would ye inform Allah of (something) that He knoweth not in the
heavens or in the earth? Praised be He and High Exalted above all that
ye associate (with Him)!

S: And they serve beside Allah what can neither harm them nor profit
them, and they say: These are our intercessors with Allah. Say: Do you
(presume to) inform Allah of what He knows not in the heavens and the
earth? Glory be to Him, and supremely exalted is He above what they set
up (with Him).

Y: Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later).
