The Holy Quran 21:29 — Surah Al-Anbya

Arabic text

۞ وَمَن يَقُلْ مِنْهُمْ إِنِّىٓ إِلَـٰهٌ مِّن دُونِهِۦ فَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِيهِ جَهَنَّمَ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

Translation

Whoever of them has to say, "I am an Ilaah besides Him (so worship me)," then We shall punish him in Jahannam. Thus do We punish the wrongdoers (sinful ones).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
