ٱلَّذِينَ يُجَادِلُونَ فِيۤ آيَاتِ ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ سُلْطَانٍ أَتَاهُمْ كَبُرَ مَقْتاً عِندَ ٱللَّهِ وَعِندَ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ كَذَلِكَ يَطْبَعُ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُـلِّ قَلْبِ مُتَكَبِّرٍ جَبَّارٍ

Tafsir al-Jalalayn

Those who dispute the signs of God, His miracles (alladhīna yujādilūna fī āyāti’Llāhi, the subject) without any warrant, any evidence, that has come to them — greatly hateful [is that], disputing of theirs (kabura, the predicate of the subject) in the sight of God and in the sight of those who believe. So, just as they have been led astray, God sets a seal, of misguidance, on the heart of every arrogant tyrant (read qalbin, ‘the heart of’, with nunation, or without, qalbi). As the heart grows arrogant, so does the individual and vice versa (kulli, in both readings, is meant to indicate the totality of the misguidance of such hearts, not the totality of the hearts).
