3. Sura al-Imran [The Family of Imran], Medina 89
The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:
وَلِلّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ...
3:129. To Allah belongeth all that is in the heavens and on earth.
...يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَاء وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَاء وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿١٢٩﴾
He pleaseth and punisheth whom He pleaseth:
but Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
3: 129
Asad whereas unto God belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth: He forgives whom He wills, and He chastises whom He wills; and God is much-forgiving, a dispenser of Grace [note 96].
Pickthall Unto Allah belong whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. He forgive whom He will, and punish whom He will. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
