(the) remembrance of Allah.
Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe.
Is one whose heart Allah has opened to Islam, so that he has received Enlightenment from Allah, (no better than one hard-hearted)? Woe to those whose hearts are hardened against celebrating the praises of Allah! they are manifestly wandering (in error)!
真主欲使谁遵循正道,就使谁的心胸为伊斯兰而敞开;真主欲使谁误入迷途,就使谁的心胸狭隘,(要他信道),难如登天。真主这样以刑罚加于不信道的人。
真主为伊斯兰而开拓其胸襟,故能接受主的光明者,难道跟胸襟狭隘的人一样吗?悲哉为记忆真主而心硬者,这等人是在明显的迷误中的。
