Sura 41
Aya 40
40
إِنَّ الَّذينَ يُلحِدونَ في آياتِنا لا يَخفَونَ عَلَينا ۗ أَفَمَن يُلقىٰ فِي النّارِ خَيرٌ أَم مَن يَأتي آمِنًا يَومَ القِيامَةِ ۚ اعمَلوا ما شِئتُم ۖ إِنَّهُ بِما تَعمَلونَ بَصيرٌ

Yusuf Ali

Those who pervert1 the Truth in Our Signs are not hidden from Us. Which is better?- he that is cast into the Fire, or he that comes safe through, on the Day of Judgment? Do what ye will: verily He seeth (clearly) all that ye do.
  • Pervert the Truth in Our Signs: either by corrupting the scriptures or turning them to false and selfish uses; or by neglecting the Signs of God in nature around them, or silencing His voice in their own conscience. Everything is known to God. Why not work for true salvation at the final Judgment?
