So set your face steadily and truly to the Faith: [establish] God’s handiwork according to the pattern on which He has made mankind: no change in the work by God: that is the standard Religion: but most among mankind understand not. Ali


30: 30 And so, set your face steadfastly towards the [one ever-true] faith, turning away from all that is false, in accordance with the natural disposition which God has instilled into human: not to allow any change to corrupt what God has thus created – this is the [purpose of the one] ever true faith; but most people know it not. Asad


30: 30 So set your purpose [O Muhammad] for a religion as a man by nature upright – the nature of God, in which He has created man. There is no altering [the Laws of]) God’s creation. That is the right religion, but most men know not- Pickthall
