6:125

Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe.

When God wishes to guide someone, He opens their breast to islam; when He wishes to lead them astray, He closes and constricts their breast as if they were climbing up to the skies. That is how God makes the foulness of those who do not believe rebound against them.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleemall-rights-reserved

And whomsoever it is Allah's will to guide, He expandeth his bosom unto the Surrender, and whomsoever it is His Will to send astray, He maketh his bosom close and narrow as if he were engaged in sheer ascent. Thus Allah layeth ignominy upon those who believe not.

So whoever Allāh wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islām; and whoever He wants to send astray - He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allāh place defilement upon those who do not believe.

Allah kimi doğru yola koymak isterse onun kalbini İslamiyet'e açar, kimi de saptırmak isterse, göğe yükseliyormuş gibi, kalbini dar ve sıkıntılı kılar. Allah böylece, inanmayanları küfür bataklığında bırakır.

Allah kimi hidayete erdirmek isterse, onun gönlünü İslâm'a açar. Kimi de saptırmak isterse, sanki göğe yükseliyormuş gibi, göğsünü dar ve sıkıntılı yapar. Allah, inanmayanları işte böyle pislik içinde bırakır.

Allah kimi doğru yola ulaştırmak isterse onun göğsünü İslam’a açar. Kimi de saptırmak isterse (sapkınlıkta bıraktığı o kişinin) göğsünü sanki göğe çıkıyormuş gibi iyice daraltıp sıkıştırır. Allah inanmayanların üstüne işte böyle pislik verir.

فمن يشأ الله أن يوفقه لقَبول الحق يشرح صدره للتوحيد والإيمان، ومن يشأ أن يضله يجعل صدره في حال شديدة من الانقباض عن قَبول الهدى، كحال مَن يصعد في طبقات الجو العليا، فيصاب بضيق شديد في التنفس. وكما يجعل الله صدور الكافرين شديدة الضيق والانقباض، كذلك يجعل العذاب على الذين لا يؤمنون به.
