قَدِ افْتَرَيْنَا عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اِنْ عُدْنَا ف۪ي مِلَّتِكُمْ بَعْدَ اِذْ نَجّٰينَا اللّٰهُ مِنْهَاۜ وَمَا يَكُونُ لَنَٓا اَنْ نَعُودَ ف۪يهَٓا اِلَّٓا اَنْ يَشَٓاءَ اللّٰهُ رَبُّنَاۜ وَسِعَ رَبُّنَا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًاۜ عَلَى اللّٰهِ تَوَكَّلْنَاۜ رَبَّنَا افْتَحْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ قَوْمِنَا بِالْحَقِّ وَاَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْفَاتِح۪ينَ ٨٩

English Translation
89—If we were to return to your religion after Allah has saved us from it, we would be fabricating a lie against Allah. It is not possible for us to return to your belief unless Allah, our Lord, wills it, for our Lord encompasses all things in His knowledge. We have put our trust in Allah alone. Our Lord! Remove the barriers between us and our people, for You are the best of those who win hearts!
