قَالُوا۟ سُبْحَٰنَكَ أَنتَ وَلِيُّنَا مِن دُونِهِم ۖ بَلْ كَانُوا۟ يَعْبُدُونَ ٱلْجِنَّ ۖ أَكْثَرُهُم بِهِم مُّؤْمِنُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

They will say, ‘Holy art Thou. Thou art our Protector against them. Nay, but they worshipped the Jinn; it was in them that most of them believed.’

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

وہ کہیں گے پاک ہے تُو۔ اُن کی بجائے تُو ہمارا دوست ہے۔ بلکہ وہ تو جنوں کی عبادت کیا کرتے تھے (اور) اِن میں سے اکثر اُنہی پر ایمان لانے والے تھے۔
