Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَإِن (But if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Conditional (if/when)
وَإِن (But if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
We translate it as "if" or "when".

Sahih International

But if they endeavor to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindness and follow the way of those who turn back to Me [in repentance]. Then to Me will be your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do.
