As for monasticism, it is they who invented it We did not prescribe it for them.

But monasticism they invented We ordained it not for them only seeking Allah's pleasure, and they observed it not with right observance.

But as for monasticism, they innovated it We had not prescribed it for them only seeking Allah s pleasure. Yet they did not observe it with due observance.

And monasticism they invented We did not prescribe it for them only seeking the good pleasure of God but they observed it not as it should be observed.

But as for the monasticism which they invented We did not ordain it for them only to seek God s approval. But they did not observe it with its due observance.

As for monasticism, they invented it thereby seeking the pleasure of Allah. We did not write it for them, and they did not observe it as it should be observed.

But they created monasticism which had not been prescribed for them by Us except for seeking the pleasure of God yet they did not observe it as it should have been rightly observed.

But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance.

But We did not prescribe monasticism for them that was their own innovation by which they sought to please God. But then, they did not observe it in the way that it should have been observed.

But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them (We commanded) only the seeking for the Good Pleasure of Allah but that they did not foster as they should have done.

And We placed in the hearts of those who followed him compassion and mercy and monasticism, which they innovated We did not prescribe it for them except that they did so seeking the approval of Allah. But they did not observe it with due observance.

We then sent Our other Noble Messengers after them following their footsteps, and after them We sent Eisa, the son of Maryam, and bestowed the Injeel to him and We instilled compassion and mercy in the hearts of his followers and they invented monasticism which We had not ordained upon them only to seek Allah s pleasure, then did not properly abide by it as it should have been rightfully abided We therefore gave the believers among them their reward and many of them are sinners.
