wa-idhā quri-a ʿalayhimu l-qur'ānu lā yasjudūna

And when the Qur’ān is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allāh]?

٢٢

bali alladhīna kafarū yukadhibūna

But those who have disbelieved deny,

٢٣

wal-lahu aʿlamu bimā yūʿūna

And Allāh is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

٢٤

fabashir'hum biʿadhābin alīmin

So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

٢٥

illā alladhīna āmanū waʿamilū l-ṣāliḥāti lahum ajrun ghayru mamnūnin

Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.
