Chapter 16, Page 278, Juz 14

101. Whenever We replace a verse with another verse - and Allah knows well what He reveals - they say, “You are but a forger.” The fact rather is that most of them are ignorant. 102. Say, “This has been brought down by RūH-ul-Qudus (the Holy Spirit - Jibra’īl ) from your Lord rightly (as due), so that it may bring firmness to the believers and become guidance and good news for the Muslims. 103. We know well that they say, “There is a man who teaches him.” The language of the one they refer to is non-Arabic while this is clear Arabic language. 104. Surely, those who do not believe in Allah’s verses, Allah does not lead them to the right path, and for them there is a painful punishment. 105. It is (not the Prophet but) the disbelievers in Allah’s verses who forge lies, and it is they who are the liars. 106. Whoever rejects his faith in Allah after having believed in Him - not the one who is compelled (to utter a word of disbelief) under duress while his heart is at peace with Faith, but the one who has laid his breast wide open for disbelief - upon such people is the wrath of Allah, and for them there is a heavy punishment. 107. That is because they have preferred the worldly life to the Hereafter, and that Allah does not lead the disbelieving people to the right path. 108. Those are the ones Allah has set a seal on whose hearts, ears and eyes; and they are the heedless. 109. Invariably, they are the losers in the Hereafter. 110. Then, your Lord - for those who left their homes after being persecuted, then fought in the way of Allah and stood patient - surely your Lord is, after all that, Most-Forgiving, Very-Merciful.

- T. Usmani
