إِنَّمَا ذَلِكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ يُخَوِّفُ أَوْلِيَاءهُ فَلاَ تَخَافُوهُمْ...

3: 175. It is only the Evil One that suggests to you the fear of his votaries:

be ye not afraid of them,

but fear Me, if ye have faith.

3: 175

Asad It is but Satan who instills [into you] fear of his allies: so fear them not, but fear Me, if you are [truly] believers!

Pickthall It is only the devil who would make (men) fear his partisans. Fear them not; fear Me, if ye are true believers.
