Allāh has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment.

God has sealed their hearts and their ears, and their eyes are covered. They will have great torment.

Allâh has set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, (i.e. they are closed from accepting Allâh’s Guidance), and on their eyes there is a covering. Theirs will be a great torment.
