شَهِدَ ٱللَّهُ أَنَّهُۥ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَأُو۟لُوا۟ ٱلْعِلْمِ قَآئِمًۢا بِٱلْقِسْطِ ۚ لَآ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ
Shahidal laahu annahoo laa ilaaha illaa Huwa walmalaaa'ikatu wa ulul 'ilmi qaaa'imam bilqist; laaa ilaaha illaa Huwal 'Azeezul Hakeem
Allah menyatakan bahwasanya tidak ada Tuhan (yang berhak disembah) melainkan Dia, Yang menegakkan keadilan; Para Malaikat dan orang-orang yang berilmu (juga menyatakan yang demikian itu). Tak ada Tuhan (yang berhak disembah) melainkan Dia, Yang Maha Perkasa lagi Maha Bijaksana.
God bears witness that there is no god but he, and so do the angels and those grounded in knowledge — upholding justice. There is no god but he, the Mighty, the Wise.
Three witnesses are named to one fact, and the last of them is human: people with knowledge stand beside the angels in giving testimony. Grammarians have divided for centuries over whom the phrase about upholding justice attaches to — God, or those knowledgeable people, which would make justice the condition on which their witness counts. Both readings have been left standing.
