Compare 109:4 and 109:2

Last updated: Apr 9, 2026

highlighted words differ between verses

109:4 · Al-Kaafiroon · Juz 30

وَلَآ أَنَا۠ عَابِدٌ مَّا عَبَدتُّمْ

I will never worship what you worship,

109:2 · Al-Kaafiroon · Juz 30

لَآ أَعْبُدُ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ

I do not worship what you worship,

109:2 'la a'budu ma ta'budun' (verbal sentence) and 109:4 'wa la ana 'abidun ma 'abadtum' (nominal sentence) cover the same meaning in different grammatical forms — a subtle internal shift memorizers frequently conflate.
