Saba
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE
[34:50]
Say: "Were I to go astray, I would but go astray [due to my own self, and] to the hurt of myself; but if I am on the right path, it is but by virtue of what my Sustainer reveals unto me: for, verily, He is all-hearing. ever-near!"


* v.50 : According to Zamakhsharī, the idea expressed by the interpolated words “due to my own self” is implied in the above, inasmuch as “everything that goes against [the spiritual interests of] oneself is caused by oneself.” (See note 4 on 14:4.)
