Verš 16:63

Při Bohu, již před tebou jsme vyslali k národům posly své, však satan jim zkrášlil jejich počínání a přítelem jejich je nyní; a pro ně určen je trest bolestný.

Tafsir al-Jalalayn

By God, We verily sent to communities before you, messengers. But Satan adorned for them their deeds, [their] evil [deeds], so that they considered them to be good [deeds] and therefore they denied the messengers. So he is their patron, the guardian of their affairs, today, that is, [now] in this world, and for them there will be a painful chastisement, in the Hereafter. It is also said that by al-yawm, ‘today’, is meant the Day of Resurrection, narrating the events as though they are taking place [now]. In other words, they have no guardian other than him [in other words, Satan], and as he is incapable of helping himself, how could he possibly help them?
