Quote:
{43:86} And those they invoke besides Him do not possess [power of] intercession; but only those who testify to the truth [can benefit], and they know.

I suggest,
{43:86} And those they invoke besides Him do not hold mediation; only those who testify to the truth and they know [it].

Quote:
{43:87} And if you asked them who created them, they would surely say, "God." So how are they deluded?

I suggest,
{43:87} And if you would ask them who created them, they would surely say, "God." So how come they are deluded?

Quote:
{43:88} And [God acknowledges] his saying, "O my Lord, indeed these are a people who do not believe."

I suggest,
{43:88} And [God acknowledges the prophet in] his saying, "O Lord, verily these are a folk who do not believe."

Quote:
{43:89} So turn aside from them and say, "Peace." But they are going to know.

I suggest,
{43:89} So turn aside from them and say, "Peace." For they shall know.
