Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَمَا (And not) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Negation (not/no)
وَمَا (And not) is a negation word — it makes the next word negative, like "not" or "no".
We add "not" or "no" to negate what follows.

Sahih International

It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allāh and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allāh and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error.
