The word(s) "defer" appears 2 time(s) in 2 verse(s) in Quran in Abdullah Yusuf Ali translation.

(1) Thou mayest defer (the turn of) any of them that thou pleasest, and thou mayest receive any thou pleasest: and there is no blame on thee if thou invite one whose (turn) thou hadst set aside. This were nigher to the cooling of their eyes, the prevention of their grief, and their satisfaction - that of all of them - with that which thou hast to give them: and Allah knows (all) that is in your hearts: and Allah is All-Knowing, Most Forbearing.

(2) For what Day are these (portents) deferred?
