فَمَنۡ يُّرِدِ اللّٰهُ اَنۡ يَّهۡدِيَهٗ يَشۡرَحۡ صَدۡرَهٗ لِلۡاِسۡلَامِ‌ۚ  وَمَنۡ يُّرِدۡ اَنۡ يُّضِلَّهٗ يَجۡعَلۡ صَدۡرَهٗ ضَيِّقًا حَرَجًا كَاَنَّمَا يَصَّعَّدُ فِى السَّمَآءِ‌ؕ  كَذٰلِكَ يَجۡعَلُ اللّٰهُ الرِّجۡسَ عَلَى الَّذِيۡنَ لَا يُؤۡمِنُوۡنَ

Fa-mun-yo-ray-dil-laa-ho-un-yah-day-ya-hoo                                                                        Yush-rah-sud-ra-hoo-lil-iss-laa-m

Wa-mun-yo-rid-un-yo-dzil-la-hoo                                                                                                    Yuj-ul-sud-ra-hoo-zuy-yay-qun-ha-ra-jun                                                                                    Ka-un-na-maa-yus-sau-aa-do-fis-sa-maa-aiy

Ka-zaa-lay-ka-yuj-aa-lool-la-hoor-rij-sa                                                                                      Alul-la-ze-na-laa-yoe-may noo-n

So, anyone Allah destines that He guides him,                                                              He broadens his mind to accept Islam.

And anyone that He destines to let him go astray,                                                        He places his mind in a mode of restriction and detestation                                      Like he is just dangling in space. 

Like this Allah places uncleanness                                                                                      On those who do not believe.
