32 Preface إِنَّ الَّذينَ كَفَروا وَصَدّوا عَن سَبيلِ اللَّهِ وَشاقُّوا الرَّسولَ مِن بَعدِ ما تَبَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الهُدىٰ لَن يَضُرُّوا اللَّهَ شَيئًا وَسَيُحبِطُ أَعمالَهُمYusuf AliThose who reject God, hinder (men) from the Path of God, and resist the Messenger, after Guidance has been clearly shown to them,1 will not injure God in the least, but He will make their deeds of no effect.Cf. verse 25 above, and verse 34 below; in verse 25 was shown the source of the evil, viz., yielding to the deceptions of the Evil One; in this verse are shown the proximate consequences of such yielding to evil, viz., failure of all we do; and in verse 34 below are shown the eternal consequences, viz., our deprivation of God’s Grace and Mercy.
