God is not loath to advance the similitude of a gnat or a being more contemptible; and those who believe know whatever is from the Lord is true.

God is not ashamed to strike a similitude even of a gnat, or aught above it.

In this way does He cause many a one to go astray, just as He guides many a one aright: but none does He cause thereby to go astray save the iniquitous,

By it He misleads many, and many He guides thereby. And He misleads thereby only those who are Al-Fasiqun (the rebellious, disobedient to Allah).
