P: He said: Seest Thou this (creature) whom Thou hast honoured above me, if Thou give me grace until the Day of Resurrection I verily will seize his seed, save but a few.

017.063 Y: (Allah) said: "Go thy way; if any of them follow thee, verily Hell will be the recompense of you (all)- an ample recompense."
P: He said: Go, and whosoever of them followeth thee - lo! hell will be your payment, ample payment.

017.064 Y: "Lead to destruction those whom thou canst among them, with thy (seductive) voice; make assaults on them with thy cavalry and thy infantry; mutually share with them wealth and children; and make promises to them." But Satan promises them nothing but deceit.
P: And excite any of them whom thou canst with thy voice, and urge thy horse and foot against them, and be a partner in their wealth and children, and promise them. Satan promiseth them only to deceive.
S: And beguile whomsoever of them you can with your voice, and collect against them your forces riding and on foot, and share with them in wealth and children, and hold out promises to them; and the Shaitan makes not promises to them but to deceive:
017.065 Y: "As for My servants, no authority shalt thou have over them:" Enough is thy Lord for a Disposer of affairs.
P: Lo! My (faithful) bondmen - over them thou hast no power, and thy
Lord sufficeth as (their) guardian.
