Those who dispute the signs of God His miracles alladhīna yujādilūna fī āyāti’Llāhi the subject without any warrant any evidence that has come to them — greatly hateful is that disputing of theirs kabura the predicate of the subject in the sight of God and in the sight of those who believe. So just as they have been led astray God sets a seal of misguidance on the heart of every arrogant tyrant read qalbin ‘the heart of’ with nunation or without qalbi. As the heart grows arrogant so does the individual and vice versa kulli in both readings is meant to indicate the totality of the misguidance of such hearts not the totality of the hearts.
- 40:3535
الَّذِينَ يُجَادِلُونَ فِي آيَاتِ اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ سُلْطَانٍ أَتَاهُمْ ۖ كَبُرَ مَقْتًا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَعِنْدَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يَطْبَعُ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ قَلْبِ مُتَكَبِّرٍ جَبَّارٍ
Those who dispute God's revelations, with no authority having come to them, (are) greatly odious in the sight of God, and the sight of those who believe. That is how God seals every proud and perverse heart."
