quran:41:36 –

And if there comes to you from Satan an evil suggestion, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.  

And if (wa-immā: here the nūn of the conditional particle in has been assimilated with the mā, which is extra) some temptation from Satan should provoke you, in other words, if some diversion should turn you away from that ˹better˺ trait and other good acts, then seek refuge in God (this is the response to the conditional ˹‘and if’˺; the response to the command clause is omitted, being ‘and He will ward it off from you’). Truly He is the Hearer, of what is said, the Knower, of what is done.
القرآن:٤١:٣٦ –

وَإِمَّا يَنْزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ نَزْغٌ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ ۖ إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ  

{وإما} فيه إدغام نون إن الشرطية في ما الزائدة {ينزغنك من الشيطان نزغ} أي يصرفك عن الخصلة وغيرها من الخير صارف {فاستعذ بالله} جواب الشرط وجواب الأمر محذوف، أي يدفعه عنك {إنه هو السميع} للقول {العليم} بالفعل.

quran:7:200 –

And if an evil suggestion comes to you from Satan, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is Hearing and Knowing.  

And if (immā: the letter nūn of the conditional particle in, ‘if’, has been assimilated with the extra mā, ‘any’) any insinuation from Satan should provoke you, that is, if anything should turn you away from that which you have been commanded to do, then, seek refuge in God (fa’sta‘idh bi’Llāh is the response to the conditional clause, with the response to the command being omitted), and He will ward it off from you, He is Hearing, of what is said, Seeing, of what is done.
القرآن:٧:٢٠٠ –

وَإِمَّا يَنْزَغَنَّكَ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ نَزْغٌ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ  

{وإما} فيه إدغام نون إن الشرطية في ما المزيدة {ينزغنَّك من الشيطان نَزْغٌ} أي إن يصرفك عما أمرت به صارف {فاستعذ بالله} جواب الشرط وجواب الأمر محذوف، أي يدفعه عنك {إنه سميع} للقول {عليم} بالفعل.
