Yusuf AliAin. Sin. Qaf
«عسق» الله أعلم بمراده به.
Saheeh InternationalThus has He revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and to those before you - Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Wise
Yusuf AliThus doth (He) send inspiration to thee as (He did) to those before thee,- God, Exalted in Power, Full of Wisdom
«كذلك» أي مثل ذلك الإيحاء «يوحي إليك و» أوحى «إلى الذين من قبلك الله» فاعل الإيحاء «العزيز» في ملك «الحكيم» في صنعه.
Saheeh InternationalTo Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth, and He is the Most High, the Most Great
Yusuf AliTo Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth: and He is Most High, Most Great
«له ما في السماوات وما في الأرض» ملكاً وخلقاً وعبيداً «وهو العلي» على خلقه «العظيم» الكبير.
Saheeh InternationalThe heavens almost break from above them, and the angels exalt [Allah] with praise of their Lord and ask forgiveness for those on earth. Unquestionably, it is Allah who is the Forgiving, the Merciful
Yusuf AliThe heavens are almost rent asunder from above them (by His Glory): and the angels celebrate the Praises of their Lord, and pray for forgiveness for (all) beings on earth: Behold! Verily God is He, the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful
«تكاد» بالتاء والياء «السماوات يتفطرن» بالنون، وفي قراءة بالتاء والشديد «من فوقهن» أي تنشق كل واحدة فوق التي تليها من عظمة الله تعالى «والملائكة يسبحون بحمد ربهم» أي ملابسين للحمد «ويستغفرون لمن في الأرض» من المؤمنين «ألا إن الله هو الغفور» لأوليائه «الرحيم» بهم.
Saheeh InternationalAnd those who take as allies other than Him - Allah is [yet] Guardian over them; and you, [O Muhammad], are not over them a manager
Yusuf AliAnd those who take as protectors others besides Him,- God doth watch over them; and thou art not the disposer of their affairs
«والذين اتخذوا من دونه» أي الأصنام «أولياء الله حفيظ» محص «عليهم» ليجازيهم «وما أنت عليهم بوكيل» تحصل المطلوب منهم، ما عليك إلا البلاغ.
Saheeh InternationalAnd thus We have revealed to you an Arabic Qur'an that you may warn the Mother of Cities [Makkah] and those around it and warn of the Day of Assembly, about which there is no doubt. A party will be in Paradise and a party in the Blaze
Yusuf AliThus have We sent by inspiration to thee an Arabic Qur'an: that thou mayest warn the Mother of Cities and all around her,- and warn (them) of the Day of Assembly, of which there is no doubt: (when) some will be in the Garden, and some in the B lazing Fire
«وكذلك» مثل ذلك الإيحاء «أوحينا إليك قرآناً عربيا لتنذر» تخوّف «أم القرى ومن حولها» أي أهل مكة وسائر الناس «وتنذر» الناس «يوم الجمع» يوم القيامة فيه الخلائق «لا ريب» شك «فيه فريق» منهم «في الجنة وفريقٌ في السعير» النار.
Saheeh InternationalAnd if Allah willed, He could have made them [of] one religion, but He admits whom He wills into His mercy. And the wrongdoers have not any protector or helper
Yusuf AliIf God had so willed, He could have made them a single people; but He admits whom He will to His Mercy; and the Wrong-doers will have no protector nor helper
«ولو شاء الله لجعلهم أمة واحدة» أي على دين واحد، وهو الإسلام «ولكن يدخل من يشاء في رحمته والظالمون» الكافرون «ما لهم من وليّ ولا نصير» يدفع عنهم العذاب.
Saheeh InternationalOr have they taken protectors [or allies] besides him? But Allah - He is the Protector, and He gives life to the dead, and He is over all things competent
Yusuf AliWhat! Have they taken (for worship) protectors besides Him? But it is God,- He is the Protector, and it is He Who gives life to the dead: It is He Who has power over all things
«أم اتخذوا من دونه» أي الأصنام «أولياء» أم منقطعة بمعنى: بل التي للانتقال، والهمزة للإنكار أي ليس المتخذون أولياء «فالله هو الولي» أي الناصر للمؤمنين والفاء لمجرد العطف «وهو يحيي الموتى وهو على كل شيءٍ قدير».
Saheeh InternationalAnd in anything over which you disagree - its ruling is [to be referred] to Allah. [Say], "That is Allah, my Lord; upon Him I have relied, and to Him I turn back
Yusuf AliWhatever it be wherein ye differ, the decision thereof is with God: such is God my Lord: In Him I trust, and to Him I turn
«وما اختلفتم» مع الكفار «فيه من شيءٍ» من الدين وغيره «فحكمه» مردود «إلى الله» يوم القيامة يفصل بينكم، قل لهم «ذلكم الله ربي عليه توكلت وإليه أنيب» أرجع.
Saheeh International[He is] Creator of the heavens and the earth. He has made for you from yourselves, mates, and among the cattle, mates; He multiplies you thereby. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing
Yusuf Ali(He is) the Creator of the heavens and the earth: He has made for you pairs from among yourselves, and pairs among cattle: by this means does He multiply you: there is nothing whatever like unto Him, and He is the One that hears and sees (all things)
«فاطر السماوات والأرض» مبدعهما «جعل لكم من أنفسكم أزواجاً» حيث خلق حواء من ضلع آدم «ومن الأنعام أزواجاً» ذكوراً وإناثاً «يذرؤكم» بالمعجمة بخلقكم «فيه» في الجعل المذكور، أي يكثركم بسببه بالتوالد والضمير للأناسي والأنعام بالتغليب «ليس كمثله شيء» الكاف زائدة لأنه تعالى لا مثل له «وهو السميع» لما يقال «البصير» لما يفعل.
Saheeh InternationalTo Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth. He extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it]. Indeed He is, of all things, Knowing
Yusuf AliTo Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth: He enlarges and restricts. The Sustenance to whom He will: for He knows full well all things
«له مقاليد السماوات والأرض» أي مفاتيح خزائنهما من المطر والنبات وغيرهما «يبسط الرزق» يوسعه «لمن يشاء» امتحاناً «ويقدر» يضيقه لمن يشاء ابتلاءً «إنه بكل شيء عليم».
Saheeh InternationalHe has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein. Difficult for those who associate others with Allah is that to which you invite them. Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills and guides to Himself whoever turns back [to Him]
Yusuf AliThe same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than God, hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. God chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him)
«شرع لكم من الدين ما وصى به نوحاً» هو أول أنبياء الشريعة «والذي أوحينا إليك وما وصينا به إبراهيم وموسى وعيسى أن أقيموا الدين ولا تتفرقوا فيه» هذا هو المشروع الموصى به، والموحى إلى محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم وهو التوحيد «كبر» عظم «على المشركين ما تدعوهم إليه» من التوحيد «الله يجتبي إليه» إلى التوحيد «من يشاء ويهدي إليه من ينيب» يقبل إلى طاعته.
Saheeh InternationalAnd they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord [postponing the penalty] until a specified time, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, those who were granted inheritance of the Scripture after them are, concerning it, in disquieting doubt
Yusuf AliAnd they became divided only after Knowledge reached them,- through selfish envy as between themselves. Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from thy Lord, (tending) to a Term appointed, the matter would have been settled between them: But truly those who have inherited the Book after them are in suspicious (disquieting) doubt concerning it
«وما تفرَّقوا» أي أهل الأديان في الدين بأن وحد بعض وكفر بعض «إلا من بعد ما جاءهم العلم» بالتوحيد «بغياً» من الكافرين «بينهم ولولا كلمة سبقت من ربك» بتأخير الجزاء «إلى أجل مسمى» يوم القيامة «لقضي بينهم» بتعذيب الكافرين في الدنيا «وإن الذين أورثوا الكتاب من بعدهم» وهم اليهود والنصارى «لفي شك منه» من محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم «مريب» موقع في الريبة.
Saheeh InternationalSo to that [religion of Allah] invite, [O Muhammad], and remain on a right course as you are commanded and do not follow their inclinations but say, "I have believed in what Allah has revealed of the Qur'an, and I have been commanded to do justice among you. Allah is our Lord and your Lord. For us are our deeds, and for you your deeds. There is no [need for] argument between us and you. Allah will bring us together, and to Him is the [final] destination
Yusuf AliNow then, for that (reason), call (them to the Faith), and stand steadfast as thou art commanded, nor follow thou their vain desires; but say: "I believe in the Book which God has sent down; and I am commanded to judge justly between you. God is our Lord and your Lord: for us (is the responsibility for) our deeds, and for you for your deeds. There is no contention between us and you. God will bring us together, and to Him is (our) Final Goal
«فلذلك» التوحيد «فادع» يا محمد الناس «واستقم» عليه «كما أمرت ولا تتبع أهواءهم» في تركه «وقل آمنت بما أنزل الله من كتاب وأمرت لأعدل» أي بأن أعدل «بينكم» في الحكم «الله ربنا وربكم لنا أعمالنا ولكم أعمالكم» فكل يجازى بعمله «لا حجة» خصومة «بيننا وبينكم» هذا قبل أن يؤمر بالجهاد «الله يجمع بيننا» في المعاد لفصل القضاء «وإليه المصير» المرجع.
Saheeh InternationalAnd those who argue concerning Allah after He has been responded to - their argument is invalid with their Lord, and upon them is [His] wrath, and for them is a severe punishment
Yusuf AliBut those who dispute concerning God after He has been accepted,- futile is their dispute in the Sight of their Lord: on them will be a Penalty terrible
«والذين يحاجُّون في» دين «الله» نبيه «من بعد ما استجيب له» بالإيمان لظهور معجزته وهم اليهود «حجتهم داحضة» باطلة «عند ربهم وعليهم غضب ولهم عذاب شديد».
Saheeh InternationalIt is Allah who has sent down the Book in truth and [also] the balance. And what will make you perceive? Perhaps the Hour is near
Yusuf AliIt is God Who has sent down the Book in Truth, and the Balance (by which to weigh conduct). And what will make thee realise that perhaps the Hour is close at hand
«الله الذي أنزل الكتاب» القرآن «بالحق» متعلق بأنزل «والميزان» العدل «وما يدريك» يعلمك «لعل الساعة» أي إتيانها «قريب» ولعل معلق للفعل عن العمل وما بعده سد مسد المفعولين.
Saheeh InternationalThose who do not believe in it are impatient for it, but those who believe are fearful of it and know that it is the truth. Unquestionably, those who dispute concerning the Hour are in extreme error
Yusuf AliOnly those wish to hasten it who believe not in it: those who believe hold it in awe, and know that it is the Truth. Behold, verily those that dispute concerning the Hour are far astray
«يستعجل بها الذين لا يؤمنون بها» يقولون متى تأتي ظنا منهم أنها غير آتية «والذين آمنوا مشفقون» خائفون «منها ويعلمون أنها الحق ألا إن الذين يمارون» يجادلون «في الساعة لفي ضلال بعيد».
Saheeh InternationalAllah is Subtle with His servants; He gives provisions to whom He wills. And He is the Powerful, the Exalted in Might
Yusuf AliGracious is God to His servants: He gives Sustenance to whom He pleases: and He has power and can carry out His Will
«الله لطيف بعباده» برهم وفاجرهم حيث لم يهلكهم جوعاً بمعاصيهم «يرزق من يشاء» من كل منهم ما يشاء «وهو القوي» على مراده «العزيز» الغالب على أمره.
Saheeh InternationalWhoever desires the harvest of the Hereafter - We increase for him in his harvest. And whoever desires the harvest of this world - We give him thereof, but there is not for him in the Hereafter any share
Yusuf AliTo any that desires the tilth of the Hereafter, We give increase in his tilth, and to any that desires the tilth of this world, We grant somewhat thereof, but he has no share or lot in the Hereafter
«من كان يريد» بعمله «حرث الآخرة» أي كسبها وهو الثواب «نزد له في حرثه» بالتضعيف فيه الحسنة إلى العشرة وأكثر «ومن كان يريد حرث الدنيا نؤته منها» بلا تضعيف ما قسم له «وما له في الآخرة من نصيب».
Saheeh InternationalOr have they other deities who have ordained for them a religion to which Allah has not consented? But if not for the decisive word, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, the wrongdoers will have a painful punishment
Yusuf AliWhat! have they partners (in godhead), who have established for them some religion without the permission of God? Had it not been for the Decree of Judgment, the matter would have been decided between them (at once). But verily the Wrong- doers will have a grievous Penalty
«أم» بل «لهم» لكفار مكة «شركاء» هم شياطينهم «شرعوا» أي الشركاء «لهم» للكفار «من الدين» الفاسد «ما لم يأذن به الله» كالشرك وإنكار البعث «ولولا كلمة الفصل» أي القضاء السابق بأن الجزاء في يوم القيامة «لقضي بينهم» وبين المؤمنين بالتعذيب لهم في الدنيا «وإن الظالمين» الكافرين «لهم عذاب أليم» مؤلم.
Saheeh InternationalYou will see the wrongdoers fearful of what they have earned, and it will [certainly] befall them. And those who have believed and done righteous deeds will be in lush regions of the gardens [in Paradise] having whatever they will in the presence of their Lord. That is what is the great bounty
Yusuf AliThou wilt see the Wrong-doers in fear on account of what they have earned, and (the burden of) that must (necessarily) fall on them. But those who believe and work righteous deeds will be in the luxuriant meads of the Gardens: they shall have, before their Lord, all that they wish for. That will indeed be the magnificent Bounty (of God)
«ترى الظالمين» يوم القيامة «مشفقين» خائفين «مما كسبوا» في الدنيا من السيئات أن يجازوا عليها «وهو» أي الجزاء عليها «واقع بهم» يوم القيامة لا محالة «والذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات في روضات الجنات» أنزهها بالنسبة إلى من دونهم «لهم ما يشاءُون عند ربهم ذلك هو الفضل الكبير».
Saheeh InternationalIt is that of which Allah gives good tidings to His servants who believe and do righteous deeds. Say, [O Muhammad], "I do not ask you for this message any payment [but] only good will through kinship." And whoever commits a good deed - We will increase for him good therein. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Appreciative
Yusuf AliThat is (the Bounty) whereof God gives Glad Tidings to His Servants who believe and do righteous deeds. Say: "No reward do I ask of you for this except the love of those near of kin." And if any one earns any good, We shall give him an increas e of good in respect thereof: for God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Ready to appreciate (service)
«ذلك الذي يَبْشُرُ» من البشارة مخففاً ومثقلاً به «الله عباده الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات قل لا أسألكم عليه» على تبليغ الرسالة «أجراً إلا المودة في القربى» استثناء منقطع، أي لكن أسألكم أن تودوا قرابتي التي هي قرابتكم أيضاً فإن له في كل بطن من قريش قرابة «ومن يقترف» يكتسب «حسنة» طاعة «تزد له فيها حسناً» بتضعيفها «إن الله غفور» للذنوب «شكور» للقليل فيضاعفه.
Saheeh InternationalOr do they say, "He has invented about Allah a lie"? But if Allah willed, He could seal over your heart. And Allah eliminates falsehood and establishes the truth by His words. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts
Yusuf AliWhat! Do they say, "He has forged a falsehood against God"? But if God willed, He could seal up thy heart. And God blots out Vanity, and proves the Truth by His Words. For He knows well the secrets of all hearts
«أم» بل «يقولون افترى على الله كذباً» بنسبة القرآن إلى الله تعالى «فإن يشأ الله يختم» يربط «على قلبك» بالصبر على أذاهم بهذا القول وغيره، وقد فعل «ويَمْحُ الله الباطل» الذي قالوه «ويحق الحق» يثبته «بكلماته» المنزلة على بنيه «إنه عليم بذات الصدور» بما في القلوب.
Saheeh InternationalAnd it is He who accepts repentance from his servants and pardons misdeeds, and He knows what you do
Yusuf AliHe is the One that accepts repentance from His Servants and forgives sins: and He knows all that ye do
«وهو الذي يقبل التوبة عن عباده» منهم «ويعفو عن السيئات» المتاب عنها «ويعلم ما يفعلون» بالياء والتاء.
Saheeh InternationalAnd He answers [the supplication of] those who have believed and done righteous deeds and increases [for] them from His bounty. But the disbelievers will have a severe punishment
Yusuf AliAnd He listens to those who believe and do deeds of righteousness, and gives them increase of His Bounty: but for the Unbelievers their is a terrible Penalty
«ويستجيب الذين آمنوا وعملوا الصالحات» يجيبهم إلى ما يسألون «ويزيدهم من فضله والكافرون لهم عذاب شديد».
Saheeh InternationalAnd if Allah had extended [excessively] provision for His servants, they would have committed tyranny throughout the earth. But He sends [it] down in an amount which He wills. Indeed He is, of His servants, Acquainted and Seeing
Yusuf AliIf God were to enlarge the provision for His Servants, they would indeed transgress beyond all bounds through the earth; but he sends (it) down in due measure as He pleases. For He is with His Servants Well-acquainted, Watchful
«ولو بسط الله الرزق لعباده» جميعهم «لبغوا» جميعهم أي طغوا «في الأرض ولكن ينزل» بالتخفيف وضده من الأرزاق «بقدر ما يشاء» فيبسطها لبعض عباده دون، وينشأ عن البسط البغي «إنه بعباده خبير بصير».
Saheeh InternationalAnd it is He who sends down the rain after they had despaired and spreads His mercy. And He is the Protector, the Praiseworthy
Yusuf AliHe is the One that sends down rain (even) after (men) have given up all hope, and scatters His Mercy (far and wide). And He is the Protector, Worthy of all Praise
«وهو الذي ينزل الغيث» المطر «من بعدما قنطوا» يئسوا من نزوله «وينشر رحمته» يبسط مطره «وهو الولي» المحسن للمؤمنين «الحميد» المحمود عندهم.
Saheeh InternationalAnd of his signs is the creation of the heavens and earth and what He has dispersed throughout them of creatures. And He, for gathering them when He wills, is competent
Yusuf AliAnd among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the living creatures that He has scattered through them: and He has power to gather them together when He wills
«ومن آياته خلق السماوات والأرض» خلق «ما بث» فرق ونشر «فيهما من دابة» هي ما يدب على الأرض من الناس وغيرهم «وهو على جمعهم» للحشر «إذا يشاء قدير» في الضمير تغليب العاقل على غيره.
Saheeh InternationalAnd whatever strikes you of disaster - it is for what your hands have earned; but He pardons much
Yusuf AliWhatever misfortune happens to you, is because on the things your hands have wrought, and for many (of them) He grants forgiveness
«وما أصابكم» خطاب للمؤمنين «من مصيبة» بلية وشدة «فبما كسبت أيديكم» أي كسبتم من الذنوب وعبر بالأيدي لأن أكثر الأفعال تزاول بها «ويعفو عن كثير» منها فلا يجازي عليه وهو تعالى أكرم من أن يثني الجزاء في الآخرة، وأما غير المذنبين فما يصيبهم في الدنيا لرفع درجاتهم في الآخرة.
Saheeh InternationalAnd you will not cause failure [to Allah] upon the earth. And you have not besides Allah any protector or helper
Yusuf AliNor can ye frustrate (aught), (fleeing) through the earth; nor have ye, besides God, any one to protect or to help
«وما أنتم» يا مشركون «بمعجزين» الله هرباً «في الأرض» فتفوتوه «وما لكم من دون الله» أي غيره «من وليّ ولا نصير» يدفع عذابه عنكم.
Saheeh InternationalAnd of His signs are the ships in the sea, like mountains
Yusuf AliAnd among His Signs are the ships, smooth-running through the ocean, (tall) as mountains
«ومن آياته الجوار» السفن «في البحر كالأعلام» كالجبال في العظم.
Saheeh InternationalIf He willed, He could still the wind, and they would remain motionless on its surface. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful
Yusuf AliIf it be His Will He can still the Wind: then would they become motionless on the back of the (ocean). Verily in this are Signs for everyone who patiently perseveres and is grateful
«إن يشأ يسكن الريح فيظللن» يصرن «رواكد» ثوابت لا تجري «على ظهره إن في ذلك لآيات لكل صبَّار شكور» هو المؤمن يصبر في الشدة ويشكر في الرخاء.
Saheeh InternationalOr He could destroy them for what they earned; but He pardons much
Yusuf AliOr He can cause them to perish because of the (evil) which (the men) have earned; but much doth He forgive
أو يوبقهنَّ» عطف على يسكن أي يغرقهن بعصف الريح بأهلهن «بما كسبوا» أي أهلهن من الذنوب «ويعف عن كثير» منها فلا يغرق أهله.
Saheeh InternationalAnd [that is so] those who dispute concerning Our signs may know that for them there is no place of escape
Yusuf AliBut let those know, who dispute about Our Signs, that there is for them no way of escape
«ويعلمُ» بالرفع مستأنف وبالنصب معطوف على تعليل مقدر، أي يغرقهم لينتقم منهم، ويعلم «الذين يجادلون في آياتنا ما لهم من محيص» مهرب من العذاب، وجملة النفي سدت مسد مفعولي يعلم، والنفي معلق عن العمل.
Saheeh InternationalSo whatever thing you have been given - it is but [for] enjoyment of the worldly life. But what is with Allah is better and more lasting for those who have believed and upon their Lord rely
Yusuf AliWhatever ye are given (here) is (but) a convenience of this life: but that which is with God is better and more lasting: (it is) for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord
«فما أوتيتم» خطاب للمؤمنين وغيرهم «من شيءٍ» من أثاث الدنيا «فمتاع الحياة الدنيا» يتمتع به فيها ثم يزول «وما عند الله» من الثواب «خير وأبقى للذين آمنوا وعلى ربهم يتوكلون» ويعطف عليه.
Saheeh InternationalAnd those who avoid the major sins and immoralities, and when they are angry, they forgive
Yusuf AliThose who avoid the greater crimes and shameful deeds, and, when they are angry even then forgive
«والذين يجتنبون كبائر الإثم والفواحش» موجبات الحدود من عطف البعض على الكل «وإذا ما غضبوا هم يغفرون» يتجاوزون.
Saheeh InternationalAnd those who have responded to their lord and established prayer and whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves, and from what We have provided them, they spend
Yusuf AliThose who hearken to their Lord, and establish regular Prayer; who (conduct) their affairs by mutual Consultation; who spend out of what We bestow on them for Sustenance
«والذين استجابوا لربهم» أجابوه إلى ما دعاهم إليه عن التوحيد والعبادة «وأقاموا الصلاة» أداموها «وأمرهم» الذي يبدو لهم «شورى بينهم» يتشاورون فيه ولا يعجلون «ومما رزقناهم» أعطيناهم «ينفقون» في طاعة الله، ومن ذُكر صنف:
Saheeh InternationalAnd those who, when tyranny strikes them, they defend themselves
Yusuf AliAnd those who, when an oppressive wrong is inflicted on them, (are not cowed but) help and defend themselves
«والذين إذا أصابهم البغي» الظلم «هم ينتصرون» صنف، أي ينتقمون ممن ظلمهم بمثل ظلمه، كما قال تعالى:
Saheeh InternationalAnd the retribution for an evil act is an evil one like it, but whoever pardons and makes reconciliation - his reward is [due] from Allah. Indeed, He does not like wrongdoers
Yusuf AliThe recompense for an injury is an injury equal thereto (in degree): but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from God: for (God) loveth not those who do wrong
«وجزاءُ سيئة سيئة مثلها» سميت الثانية سيئة لمشابهتها للأولى في الصورة، وهذا ظاهر فيما يقتص فيه من الجراحات، قال بعضهم: وإذا قال له أخزاك الله، فيجيبه أخزاك الله «فمن عفا» عن ظالمه «وأصلح» الود بينه وبين المعفو عنه «فأجره على الله» أي إن الله يأجره لا محالة «إنه لا يحب الظالمين» أي البادئين بالظلم فيترتب عليهم عقابه.
Saheeh InternationalAnd whoever avenges himself after having been wronged - those have not upon them any cause [for blame]
Yusuf AliBut indeed if any do help and defend themselves after a wrong (done) to them, against such there is no cause of blame
«ولمن انتصر بعد ظلمه» أي ظلم الظالم إياه «فأولئك ما عليهم من سبيل» مؤاخذة.
Saheeh InternationalThe cause is only against the ones who wrong the people and tyrannize upon the earth without right. Those will have a painful punishment
Yusuf AliThe blame is only against those who oppress men and wrong-doing and insolently transgress beyond bounds through the land, defying right and justice: for such there will be a penalty grievous
«إنما السبيل على الذين يظلمون الناس ويبغون» يعملون «في الأرض بغير الحق» بالمعاصي «أولئك لهم عذاب أليم» مؤلم.
Saheeh InternationalAnd whoever is patient and forgives - indeed, that is of the matters [requiring] determination
Yusuf AliBut indeed if any show patience and forgive, that would truly be an exercise of courageous will and resolution in the conduct of affairs
«ولمن صبر» فلم ينتصر «وغفر» تجاوز «إن ذلك» الصبر والتجاوز «لمن عزم الأمور» أي معزوماتها، بمعنى المطلوبات شرعاً.
Saheeh InternationalAnd he whom Allah sends astray - for him there is no protector beyond Him. And you will see the wrongdoers, when they see the punishment, saying, "Is there for return [to the former world] any way
Yusuf AliFor any whom God leaves astray, there is no protector thereafter. And thou wilt see the Wrong-doers, when in sight of the Penalty, Say: "Is there any way (to effect) a return
«ومن يضلل الله فما له من ولي من بعده» أي أحد يلي هدايته بعد إضلال الله إياه «وترى الظالمين لما رأوا العذاب يقولون هل إلى مَرَدّ» إلى الدنيا «من سبيل» طريق.
Saheeh InternationalAnd you will see them being exposed to the Fire, humbled from humiliation, looking from [behind] a covert glance. And those who had believed will say, "Indeed, the [true] losers are the ones who lost themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, the wrongdoers are in an enduring punishment
Yusuf AliAnd thou wilt see them brought forward to the (Penalty), in a humble frame of mind because of (their) disgrace, (and) looking with a stealthy glance. And the Believers will say: "Those are indeed in loss, who have given to perdition their own selves and those belonging to them on the Day of Judgment. Behold! Truly the Wrong-doers are in a lasting Penalty
«وتراهم يعرضون عليها» أي النار «خاشعين» خائفين متواضعين «من الذل ينظرون» إليها «من طرف خفيّ» ضعيف النظر مسارقه، ومن ابتدائية، أو بمعنى الباء «وقال الذين آمنوا إن الخاسرين الذين خسروا أنفسهم وأهليهم يوم القيامة» بتخليدهم في النار وعدم وصولهم إلى الحور المعدة لهم في الجنة لو آمنوا، والموصول خبر إن «ألا إن الظالمين» الكافرين «في عذاب مقيم» دائم هو من مفعول الله تعالى.
Saheeh InternationalAnd there will not be for them any allies to aid them other than Allah. And whoever Allah sends astray - for him there is no way
Yusuf AliAnd no protectors have they to help them, other than God. And for any whom God leaves to stray, there is no way (to the Goal)
«وما كان لهم من أولياء ينصرونهم من دون الله» أي غيره يدفع عذابه عنهم «ومن يضلل الله فما له من سبيل» طريق إلى الحق في الدنيا وإلى الجنة في الآخرة.
Saheeh InternationalRespond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allah of which there is no repelling. No refuge will you have that day, nor for you will there be any denial
Yusuf AliHearken ye to your Lord, before there come a Day which there will be no putting back, because of (the Ordainment of) God! that Day there will be for you no place of refuge nor will there be for you any room for denial (of your sins)
«استجيبوا لربكم» أجيبوه بالتوحيد والعبادة «من قبل أن يأتي يوم» هو يوم القيامة «لا مرد له من الله» أي أنه إذا أتى به لا يرده «ما لكم من ملجأ» تلجؤون إليه «يومئذ وما لكم من نكير» إنكار لذنوبكم.
Saheeh InternationalBut if they turn away - then We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], over them as a guardian; upon you is only [the duty of] notification. And indeed, when We let man taste mercy from us, he rejoices in it; but if evil afflicts him for what his hands have put forth, then indeed, man is ungrateful
Yusuf AliIf then they run away, We have not sent thee as a guard over them. Thy duty is but to convey (the Message). And truly, when We give man a taste of a Mercy from Ourselves, he doth exult thereat, but when some ill happens to him, on account of th e deeds which his hands have sent forth, truly then is man ungrateful
«فإن أعرضوا» عن الإجابة «فما أرسلناك عليهم حفيظاً» تحفظ أعمالهم بأن توافق المطلوب منهم «إن» ما «عليك إلا البلاغ» وهذا قبل الأمر بالجهاد «وإنا إذا أذقنا الإنسان منا رحمة» نعمة كالغنى والصحة «فرح وإن تصبهم» الضمير فلإنسان باعتبار الجنس «سيئة» بلاء «بما قدمت أيديهم» أي قدموه وعبر بالأيدي لأن أكثر الأفعال تزاول بها «فإن الإنسان كفور» للنعمة.
Saheeh InternationalTo Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth; He creates what he wills. He gives to whom He wills female [children], and He gives to whom He wills males
Yusuf AliTo God belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. He creates what He wills (and plans). He bestows (children) male or female according to His Will (and Plan)
«لله ملك السماوات والأرض يخلق ما يشاء يهب لمن يشاء» من الأولاد «إناثاً ويهب لمن يشاء الذكور».
