ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّكُمْ خَـٰلِقُ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ لَّآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ
Tha likumu All a hu rabbukum kh a liqu kulli shayin l a il a ha ill a huwa faann a tufakoon a
Such is God, your Sustainer, the Creator of all that exists: there is no deity save Him. How perverted, then, are your minds!45
  - Mohammad Asad

Sc., "O you who deny this truth!" For my above rendering of tu'fakun, see note [90] on the last sentence of 5:75 .

Such is Allah your Rabb, the Creator of all things. There is no god but Him. None has the right to be worshipped except Him, so how are you being deluded?
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
That is Allah, your Lord, the Creator of all things. There is no god 'worthy of worship' except Him. How can you then be deluded 'from the truth'?
  - Mustafa Khattab
Such is Allah, your Lord, the Creator of all things. There is no God save Him. How then are ye perverted?
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Such is Allah your Lord the Creator of all things there is no god but He: then how ye are deluded away from the Truth! 4436
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

If we worship false gods, i.e., go after vanities, what is it that deludes us and leads us astray? What could it be but our rank ingratitude and failure to use the understanding which Allah has given us?
