| Al Bilal Muhammad Et Al It is not required of you to guide them, but God guides whom He pleases. Whatever good you give, benefits your own souls, but you should only do so seeking the Face of God. Whatever good you give, will be repaid to you, and you will not be dealt with unjustly |
| Ali Bakhtiari Nejad Guiding them is not your responsibility, but God guides whom He wants.

| Ali Quli Qarai It is not up to you to guide them; rather, it is Allah who guides whomever He wishes. Whatever wealth you spend, it is for your own benefit, as you do not spend but to seek Allah’s pleasure, and whatever wealth you spend will be repaid to you in full and you will not be wronged |
| Ali Unal (O Messenger! Your mission is to communicate all such commandments, so) it is not your duty to secure their guidance (in every matter); but God guides whomever He wills.

Whatever good you spend will be repaid to you in full, and you will not be wronged |
