This is how We let this [denial] enter the hearts of the wicked7.

Notes

[7] For they rebelled against the Truth and did not submit to it.

Thus do We let it (polytheism and disbelief) enter the hearts of the Mujrimûn [criminals, polytheists and pagans (because of their mocking at the Messengers)].

Thus do We make it traverse the hearts of the guilty:

Even so do we let it creep into the hearts of the sinners -

Thus do We make it to enter into the hearts of the guilty;

Thus We insert it (Disbelief) into the hearts of the criminals.
