Readings

وَيَذَرُهُمْ

wa-yadharuhum

“...they have no guide. He leaves them to wander”

This is technically a new sentence which expresses the same meaning as the following reading; both refer to God in the third person.

وَيَذَرْهُمْ

wa-yadharhum

“...they have no guide and He leaves them to wander”

Here the verb is jussive because it is joined to the outcome of the conditional.

وَنَذَرُهُمْ

wa-nadharuhum

“...they have no guide. We leave them to wander”

In this reading, God speaks of Himself with the first-person majestic plural.

Explanation

These readings amount to the same meaning [al-Mahdawi].

He has revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ the Book in truth, confirming what came before it, as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel
