Sura 10, Yunus (the Prophet Yunus), Mecca 51

[one year before Hijra]

10: 31

Asad Say: “Who is it that provides you with sustenance out of heaven and earth, or who is it that has full power over hearing and signt?..........[Asad note 49]

Yusuf Ali Say: "Who is it that sustains you (in life) from the sky and from the earth? Or who is it that has power over hearing and sight? And who is it that brings out the living from the dead and the dead from the living? And who is it that rules and regulates all affairs?" They will soon say "Allah." Say "Will ye not then show piety (to Him)?"

Pickthall Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Who provideth for you from the sky and the earth, or Who owneth hearing and sight; and Who bringeth forth the living from the dead and bringeth forth the dead from the living; and Who directeth the course? They will say: Allah. Then say: Will ye not then keep your duty (unto Him)?

10: 32



فَذَٰلِكُمُ اللَّهُ رَبُّكُمُ الْحَقُّ فَمَاذَا بَعْدَ الْحَقِّ إِلَّا الضَّلَالُ فَأَنَّىٰ تُصْرَفُونَ

Transliteration Fa za_likumulla_hu rabbukumul haqq(u), fa ma_za_ ba'dal haqqi illad dala_l(u), fa anna_ tusrafu_n(a).



Asad ……seeing that He is God, your sustainer, the Ultimate Truth? For, after the truth [has been forsaken], what is there [left] but error? How, then can you lose sight of the truth?”



Yusuf Ali Such is Allah your real Cherisher and Sustainer: apart from Truth what (remains) but error? How then are ye turned away?

Pickthall Such then is Allah, your rightful Lord. After the Truth what is there saving error? How then are ye turned away!
