الترجمة الإنجليزية - مركز رواد الترجمة
34. Noah told them that his advice and counsel would not benefit them if Allah willed that they be led astray from the right path, and if He willed to leave them without guidance because of their stubbornness. He was their Lord and it was He Who had control over their lives, so He would lead them astray if He willed; and to Him alone they would be returned on the Day of Judgement, when they would be repaid for their actions.
الترجمة الإنجليزية للمختصر في تفسير القرآن الكريم
