فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَقُلْ حَسْبِىَ ٱللَّهُ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَهُوَ رَبُّ ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
Fa in tawallaw faqul lhasbiyal laahu laaa ilaaha illaa Huwa 'alaihi tawakkkaltu wa Huwa Rabbul 'Arshil 'Azeem
But if they turn away, [O Muhammad], say, "Sufficient for me is Allah; there is no deity except Him. On Him I have relied, and He is the Lord of the Great Throne."
پھر اگر یہ لوگ پھر جائیں (اور نہ مانیں) تو کہہ دو کہ خدا مجھے کفایت کرتا ہے اس کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں اسی پر میرا بھروسہ ہے اور وہی عرش عظیم کا مالک ہے
