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

(711) And those who disbelieve are driven unto hell in troops till, when they reach it and the gates thereof are opened, and the warders thereof say unto them: Came there not unto you messengers of your own, reciting unto you the revelations of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this your Day? they say: Yea, verily. but the word of doom of disbelievers is fulfilled.

(712) Lo! (on that day) those who disbelieve are informed by proclamation: Verily Allah's abhorrence is more terrible than your abhorrence one of another, when ye were called unto the faith but did refuse.

(713) (It is said unto them): This is (your plight) because, when Allah only was invoked, ye disbelieved, but when some partner was ascribed to Him ye were believing. but the command belongeth only to Allah, the Sublime, the Majestic.

(714) That was because their messengers kept bringing them clear proofs (of Allah's Sovereignty) but they disbelieved; so Allah seized them. Lo! He is Strong, severe in punishment.

(715) Unto Pharaoh and Haman and Korah, but they said: A lying sorcerer!

(716) And when he brought them the Truth from Our presence, they said: Slay the sons of those who believe with him, and spare their women. but the plot of disbelievers is in naught but error.

(717) O my people! Yours is the kingdom to-day, ye being uppermost in the land. but who would save us from the wrath of Allah should it reach us? Pharaoh said: I do but show you what I think, and I do but guide you to wise policy.

(718) The roads of the heavens, and may look upon the god of Moses, though verily I think him a liar. Thus was the evil that he did made fairseeming unto Pharaoh, and he was debarred from the (right) way. The plot of Pharaoh ended but in ruin.

(719) O my people! Lo! this life of the world is but a passing comfort, and lo! the Hereafter, that is the enduring home.

(720) Assuredly the creation of the heavens and the earth is greater than the creation of mankind; but most of mankind know not.
