Sura 88
Aya 22
22
لَستَ عَلَيهِم بِمُصَيطِرٍ

Yusuf Ali

Thou art not one to manage (men’s) affairs.1
  • The Prophet of God is sent to teach and direct people on the way. He is not sent to force their will, or to punish them, except insofar as he may receive authority to do so. Punishment belongs to God alone. And Punishment is certain in the Hereafter, when true values will be restored.
