3:178
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱشْتَرَوُا۟ ٱلْكُفْرَ بِٱلْإِيمَٰنِ لَن يَضُرُّوا۟ ٱللَّهَ شَيْـًٔا وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Surely, those who have purchased disbelief at the price of faith cannot harm Allah at all; and they shall have a grievous punishment.

[b]Surely, those who have purchased disbelief at the price of faith cannot harm Allah at all; and they shall have a grievous punishment.[460]
2:17, 87; 14:29.
Commentary:
As in the preceding verse, the word Allah in the clause, cannot harm Allah, stands either for the cause of Allah or for the Holy Prophet and the believers, because God is evidently above being harmed. The expression has been used to show that those who try to do harm to Islam or to the Holy Prophet and his followers, really try to do harm to God Himself, for the obvious reason that the cause of the Holy Prophet or that of Islam is the cause of God Himself.
