Sura 6 Al-An'am (The Cattle), ayah 43

  1. فَلَوْلَا إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوا وَلَٰكِنْ قَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ

    Translation by words

    فَلَوْلَآ
    Then why not
    إِذْ
    when
    جَآءَهُم
    came to them
    بَأْسُنَا
    Our punishment,
    تَضَرَّعُوا۟
    they humbled themselves?
    وَلَٰكِن
    But
    قَسَتْ
    became hardened
    قُلُوبُهُمْ
    their hearts
    وَزَيَّنَ
    and made fair-seeming
    لَهُمُ
    to them
    ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ
    the Shaitaan
    مَا
    what
    كَانُوا۟
    they used to
    يَعْمَلُونَ
    do.

    Then why, when Our punishment came to them, did they not humble themselves? But their hearts became hardened, and Satan made attractive to them that which they were doing.

    6:43
