Arabic Text
قالوا اولم تك تأتيكم رسلكم بالبينات قالوا بلى قالوا فادعوا وما دعـؤا الكافرين الا في ضلال
They say: Came not your messengers unto you with clear proofs? They say: Yea, verily. They say: Then do ye pray, although the prayer of disbelievers is in vain.
They will say: "Did there not come to you your messengers with Clear Signs?" They will say, "Yes". They will reply, "Then(4423) pray (as ye like)! But the prayer of those without Faith is nothing but (futile wandering) in (mazes of) error!"*
Yusuf Ali (English) Explanation of Surah Ghafir, Verse 50
4423 The answer being in the affirmative, they will have to tell the dreadful truth: 'This is neither the time nor the place for prayer, for mercy! And in any case, Prayer without Faith is Delusion, and must miss its mark.' Cf. 13:14 .
