20*	And another, the third (goddess), Mant? 
| |21*	What! for you the male sex, and for Him, the female? 
| |22*	Behold, such would be indeed a division most unfair! 
| |23*	These are nothing but names which ye have devised,- ye and your fathers,- for which Allah has sent down no authority (whatever). They follow nothing but conjecture and what the souls desire!- Even though there has already come to them Guidance from their Lord! 
| |24*	Nay, shall man have (just) anything he hankers after? 
| |25*	But to Allah belongeth the Hereafter and the Former life. 
| |26*	How many-so-ever be the angels in the heavens, their intercession will avail nothing except after Allah has given leave for whom He pleases and that he is acceptable to Him. 
| |27*	Those who believe not in the Hereafter, name the angels with female names. 
| |28*	But they have no knowledge therein. They follow nothing but conjecture; and conjecture avails nothing against Truth. 
| |29*	Therefore shun those who turn away from Our Message and desire nothing but the life of this world.
