The word(s) "but" appears 1022 time(s) in 947 verse(s) in Quran in Muhammad Pickthal translation.

(171) There is not an animal in the earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are peoples like unto you. We have neglected nothing in the Book (of Our decrees). Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.

(172) Nay, but unto Him ye call, and He removeth that because of which ye call unto Him, if He will, and ye forget whatever partners ye ascribed unto Him.

(173) If only, when Our disaster came on them, they had been humble! but their hearts were hardened and the devil made all that they used to do seem fair unto them!

(174) but as for those who deny Our revelations, torment will afflict them for that they used to disobey.

(175) And with Him are the keys of the Invisible. None but He knoweth them. And He knoweth what is in the land and the sea. Not a leaf falleth but He knoweth it, not a grain amid the darkness of the earth, naught of wet or dry but (it is noted) in a clear record.

(176) Say: Allah delivereth you from this and from all affliction. Yet ye attribute partners unto Him.

(177) Those who ward off (evil) are not accountable for them in aught, but the Reminder (must be given them) that haply they (too) may ward off (evil).

(178) When the night grew dark upon him he beheld a star. He said: This is my Lord. but when it set, he said: I love not things that set.

(179) And when he saw the moon uprising, he exclaimed: This is my Lord. but when it set, he said: Unless my Lord guide me, I surely shall become one of the folk who are astray.

(180) Such is the guidance of Allah wherewith He guideth whom He will of His bondmen. but if they had set up (for worship) aught beside Him, (all) that they did would have been vain.
