| Dr Kamal Omar Say: “Shall we invoke besides Allah what gives not benefit to us and nor gives us hurt; and (thus) we may be turned on our heels after when Allah has guided us — like that whom the devils on the earth have made go astray, in confusion. For him are companions (and colleagues): they call him to the guidance (saying) ‘come to us’.” Say: “Verily Allah’s Guidance! That is the True Guidance, and we have been commanded that we may submit (in Islam) to the Nourisher-Sustainer of the worlds.” |

Say: Truly, the guidance of God is The Guidance. And we were commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds |
| Dr Munir Munshey Say, "Shall we call others besides Allah _ others who can neither help nor harm us? After being guided by Allah, we would be making an about face and turning back to misguidance!

Say, "Only Allah´s guidance is the (real) guidance. Our orders are to submit to the Lord of the universe |
