Sura 40
Aya 35
35
الَّذينَ يُجادِلونَ في آياتِ اللَّهِ بِغَيرِ سُلطانٍ أَتاهُم ۖ كَبُرَ مَقتًا عِندَ اللَّهِ وَعِندَ الَّذينَ آمَنوا ۚ كَذٰلِكَ يَطبَعُ اللَّهُ عَلىٰ كُلِّ قَلبِ مُتَكَبِّرٍ جَبّارٍ

Yusuf Ali

“(Such) as dispute about the Signs of God, without any authority that hath reached them, grievous and odious (is such conduct) in the sight of God and of the Believers. Thus doth God seal up1 every heart - of arrogant and obstinate Transgressors.”
  • See the last note. The arrogant transgressors having closed their hearts to the Message of God and to every appeal made to them, it followed by God’s Law that their hearts were sealed up to any fresh influences for good. Cf. 7:100; also 2:7, and n. 31.
