- Sura: 3 - aal-`Imraan (The Family of `Imraan) Ayat: 137
قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ سُنَنٌ فَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَانْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ (137
تم سے پہلے مثالیں گزر چکی ہیں اب تم زمین میں سیر کرو اور دیکھو کہ جھٹلانے والوں کا کیا انجام ہوتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Many were the Ways of Life that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth.
[ PICKTHAL ] Systems have passed away before you. Do but travel in the land and see the nature of the consequence for those who did deny (the messengers).
[ SHAKIR ] Indeed there have been examples before you; therefore travel in the earth and see what was the end of the rejecters.
- Sura: 6 - al-An`aam (The Cattle) Ayat: 11
قُلْ سِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ انْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ (11
آپ ان سے کہہ دیجئے کہ زمین میں سیر کریں پھر اس کے بعد دیکھیں کہ جھٹلانے والوں کا انجام کیا ہوتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Say: "Travel through the earth and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth."
[ PICKTHAL ] Say (unto the disbelievers): Travel in the land, and see the nature of the consequence for the rejecters!
[ SHAKIR ] Say: Travel in the land, then see what was the end of the rejecters.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 4 to 5
وَكَمْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ أَهْلَكْنَاهَا فَجَاءَهَا بَأْسُنَا بَيَاتًا أَوْ هُمْ قَائِلُونَ (4
اور کتنے قرئیے ہیں جنہیں ہم نے برباد کردیا اور ان کے پاس ہمارا عذاب اس وقت آیا جب وہ رات میں سورہے تھے یا دن میں قیلولہ کررہے تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] How many towns have We destroyed (for their sins)? Our punishment took them on a sudden by night or while they slept for their afternoon rest.
[ PICKTHAL ] How many a township have We destroyed! As a raid by night, or while they slept at noon, Our terror came unto them.
[ SHAKIR ] And how many a town that We destroyed, so Our punishment came to it by night or while they slept at midday.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 4 to 5
فَمَا كَانَ دَعْوَاهُمْ إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا إِلَّا أَنْ قَالُوا إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ (5
پھر ہمارا عذاب آنے کے بعد ان کی پکار صرف یہ تھی کہ یقینا ہم لوگ ظالم تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] When (thus) Our punishment took them, no cry did they utter but this: "Indeed we did wrong."
[ PICKTHAL ] No plea had they, when Our terror came unto them, save that they said: Lo! We were wrong-doers.
[ SHAKIR ] Yet their cry, when Our punishment came to them, was nothing but that they said: Surely we were unjust.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) Ayat: 64
(64
پھر ان لوگوں نے نوح علیہ السّلام کی تکذیب کی تو ہم نے انہیں اور ان کے ساتھیوں کو کشتی میں نجات دے دی اور جن لوگوں نے ہماری آیتوں کو جھٹلایا تھا انہیں غرق کردیا کہ وہ سب بالکل اندھے لوگ تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] But they rejected him, and We delivered him, and those with him, in the Ark: but We overwhelmed in the flood those who rejected Our signs. They were indeed a blind people!
[ PICKTHAL ] But they denied him, so We saved him and those with him in the ship, and We drowned those who denied Our tokens. Lo! they were blind folk.
[ SHAKIR ] But they called him a liar, so We delivered him and those with him in the ark, and We drowned those who rejected Our communications; surely they were a blind people.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) Ayat: 65
(65
اور ہم نے قوم عاد علیہ السّلام کی طرف ان کے بھائی ھود علیہ السّلام کو بھیجا تو انہوں نے کہا کہ اے قوم والو اللہ کی عبادت کرو اس کے علاوہ تمہارا دوسرا خدا نہیں ہے کیا تم ڈرتے نہیں ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] To the 'Ad people, (We sent) Hud, one of their (own) brethren: He said: O my people! worship Allah! ye have no other god but Him will ye not fear (Allah)?"
[ PICKTHAL ] And unto (the tribe of) A'ad (We sent) their brother, Hud. He said: O my people! Serve Allah. Ye have no other Allah save Him. Will ye not ward off (evil)?
[ SHAKIR ] And to Ad (We sent) their brother Hud. He said: O my people! serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; will you not then guard (against evil)?
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 71 to 72
قَالَ قَدْ وَقَعَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ رِجْسٌ وَغَضَبٌ ۖ أَتُجَادِلُونَنِي فِي أَسْمَاءٍ سَمَّيْتُمُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمْ مَا نَزَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ ۚ فَانْتَظِرُوا إِنِّي مَعَكُمْ مِنَ الْمُنْتَظِرِينَ (71
انہوں نے جواب دیا کہ تمہارے اوپر پروردگا رکی طرف سے عذاب اور غضب طے ہوچکا ہے -کیا تم مجھ سے ان ناموں کے بارے میں جھگڑا کرتے ہو جو تم نے اور تمہارے بزرگوں نے خود طے کرلئے ہیں اور خدا نے ان کے بارے میں کوئی برہان نازل نہیں کیا ہے تو اب تم عذاب کا انتظار کرو میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ انتظار کرنے والوں میں ہوں
[YOUSAF ALI] He said: "Punishment and wrath have already come upon you from your Lord: dispute ye with me over names which ye have devised - ye and your fathers,- without authority from Allah? then wait: I am amongst you, also waiting."
[ PICKTHAL ] He said: Terror and wrath from your Lord have already fallen on you. Would ye wrangle with me over names which ye have named, ye and your fathers, for which no warrant from Allah hath been revealed? Then await (the consequence), lo! I (also) am of those awaiting (it).
[ SHAKIR ] He said: Indeed uncleanness and wrath from your Lord have lighted upon you; what! do you dispute with me about names which you and your fathers have given? Allah has not sent any authority for them; wait then, I too with you will be of those who wait.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 71 to 72
فَأَنْجَيْنَاهُ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِنَّا وَقَطَعْنَا دَابِرَ الَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا بِآيَاتِنَا ۖ وَمَا كَانُوا مُؤْمِنِينَ (72
پھر ہم نے انہیں اور ان کے ساتھیوں کو اپنی رحمت سے نجات دے دی اور اپنی آیات کی تکذیب کرنے والوں کی نسل منقطع کردی اور وہ لوگ ہرگز صاحبان هایمان نہیں تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] We saved him and those who adhered to him. By Our mercy, and We cut off the roots of those who rejected Our signs and did not believe.
[ PICKTHAL ] And We saved him and those with him by a mercy from Us, and We cut the root of those who denied Our revelations and were not believers.
[ SHAKIR ] So We delivered him and those with him by mercy from Us, and We cut off the last of those who rejected Our communications and were not believers.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) Ayat: 74
(74
اس وقت کو یاد کرو جب اس نے تم کو قوم عاد علیہ السّلام کے بعد جانشین بنایا اور زمین میں اس طرح بسایا کہ تم ہموار زمینوں میں قصر بناتے تھے اور پہاڑوں کو کاٹ کاٹ کر گھر بناتے تھے تو اب اللہ کی نعمتوں کو یاد کرو اور زمین میں فساد نہ پھیلاتے پھرو
[YOUSAF ALI] "And remember how He made you inheritors after the 'Ad people and gave you habitations in the land: ye build for yourselves palaces and castles in (open) plains, and care out homes in the mountains; so bring to remembrance the benefits (ye have received) from Allah, and refrain from evil and mischief on the earth."
[ PICKTHAL ] And remember how He made you viceroys after A'ad and gave you station in the earth. Ye choose castles in the plains and hew the mountains into dwellings. So remember (all) the bounties of Allah and do not evil, making mischief in the earth.
[ SHAKIR ] And remember when He made you successors after Ad and settled you in the land-- you make mansions on its plains and hew out houses in the mountains-- remember therefore Allah's benefits and do not act corruptly in the land, making mischief.

(75
تو ان کی قوم کے بڑے لوگوں نے کمزور بنا دئیے جانے والے لوگوں میں سے جو ایمان لائے تھے ان سے کہنا شروع کیا کہ کیا تمہیں اس کا یقین ہے کہ صالح علیہ السّلام خدا کی طرف سے بھیجے گئے ہیں انہوں نے کہا کہ بیشک ہمیں ان کے پیغام کا ایمان اور ایقان حاصل ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] The leaders of the arrogant party among his people said to those who were reckoned powerless - those among them who believed: "know ye indeed that Salih is a messenger from his Lord?" They said: "We do indeed believe in the revelation which hath been sent through him."
[ PICKTHAL ] The chieftains of his people, who were scornful, said unto those whom they despised, unto such of them as believed: Know ye that Salih is one sent from his Lord? They said: Lo! In that wherewith he hath been sent we are believers.
[ SHAKIR ] The chief of those who behaved proudly among his people said to those who were considered weak, to those who believed from among them: Do you know that Salih is sent by his Lord? They said: Surely we are believers in what he has been sent with
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 75 to 76
قَالَ الَّذِينَ اسْتَكْبَرُوا إِنَّا بِالَّذِي آمَنْتُمْ بِهِ كَافِرُونَ (76
تو بڑے لوگوں نے جوابد یا کہ ہم تو ان باتوں کے منکر ہیں جن پر تم ایمان لانے والے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] The Arrogant party said: "For our part, we reject what ye believe in."
[ PICKTHAL ] Those who were scornful said: Lo! in that which ye believe we are disbelievers.
[ SHAKIR ] Those who were haughty said: Surely we are deniers of what you believe in.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) Ayat: 78
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ فَأَصْبَحُوا فِي دَارِهِمْ جَاثِمِينَ (78
تو انہیں زلزلہ نے اپنی گرفت میں لے لیاکہ اپنے گھر ہی میں سربہ زانو رہ گئے
[YOUSAF ALI] So the earthquake took them unawares, and they lay prostrate in their homes in the morning!
[ PICKTHAL ] So the earthquake seized them, and morning found them prostrate in their dwelling-place.
[ SHAKIR ] Then the earthquake overtook them, so they became motionless bodies in their abode.

(85
اور ہم نے قوم مدین کی طرف ان کے بھائی شعیب علیہ السّلام کو بھیجا تو انہوں نے کہا کہ اللہ کی عبادت کرو کہ اس کے علاوہ کوئی خدا نہیں ہے- تمہارے پاس پروردگار کی طرف سے دلیل آچکی ہے اب ناپ تول کو پورا پورا رکھو اور لوگوں کو چیزیں کم نہ دو اور اصلاح کے بعد زمین میں فساد برپا نہ کرو- یہی تمہارے حق میں بہتر ہے اگر تم ایمان لانے والے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] To the Madyan people We sent Shu'aib, one of their own brethren: he said: "O my people! worship Allah; Ye have no other god but Him. Now hath come unto you a clear (Sign) from your Lord! Give just measure and weight, nor withhold from the people the things that are their due; and do no mischief on the earth after it has been set in order: that will be best for you, if ye have Faith.
[ PICKTHAL ] And unto Midian (We sent) their brother, Shu'eyb. He said: O my people! Serve Allah. Ye have no other Allah save Him. Lo! a clear proof hath come unto you from your Lord; so give full measure and full weight and wrong not mankind in their goods, and work not confusion in the earth after the fair ordering thereof. That will be better for you, if ye are believers.
[ SHAKIR ] And to Madyan (We sent) their brother Shu'aib. He said: O my people! serve Allah, you have no god other than Him; clear proof indeed has come to you from your Lord, therefore give full measure and weight and do not diminish to men their things, and do not make mischief in the land after its reform; this is better for you if you are believers:

(90
تو ان کی قوم کے کفاّر نے کہا کہ اگر تم لوگ شعیب علیہ السّلام کا اتباع کرلو گے تو تمہارا شمار خسارہ والوں میں ہو جائے گا
[YOUSAF ALI] The leaders, the unbelievers among his people, said: "If ye follow Shu'aib, be sure then ye are ruined!"
[ PICKTHAL ] But the chieftains of his people, who were disbelieving, said: If ye follow Shu'eyb, then truly ye shall be the losers.
[ SHAKIR ] And the chiefs of those who disbelieved from among his people said: If you follow Shu'aib, you shall then most surely be losers
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 90 to 92
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الرَّجْفَةُ فَأَصْبَحُوا فِي دَارِهِمْ جَاثِمِينَ (91
نتیجہ یہ ہوا کہ انہیں زلزلہ نے اپنی گرفت میں لے لیا اور اپنے گھر میں سربہ زانو ہوگئے
[YOUSAF ALI] But the earthquake took them unawares, and they lay prostrate in their homes before the morning!
[ PICKTHAL ] So the earthquake seized them and morning found them prostrate in their dwelling-place.
[ SHAKIR ] Then the earthquake overtook them, so they became motionless bodies in their abode.
- Sura: 7 - al-A`araaf (The Heights) From Ayat: 90 to 92
(92
جن لوگوں نے شعیب علیہ السّلام کی تکذیب کی وہ ایسے برباد ہوئے گویا اس بستی میں بسے ہی نہیں تھے- جن لوگوں نے شعیب علیہ السّلام کو جھٹلایا وہی خسارہ والے قرار پائے
[YOUSAF ALI] The men who reject Shu'aib became as if they had never been in the homes where they had flourished: the men who rejected Shu'aib - it was they who were ruined!
[ PICKTHAL ] Those who denied Shu'eyb became as though they had not dwelt there. Those who denied Shu'eyb, they were the losers.
[ SHAKIR ] Those who called Shu'aib a liar were as though they had never dwelt therein; those who called Shu'aib a liar, they were the losers.
- Sura: 10 - Yunus (Jonas) Ayat: 73
(73
پھر قوم نے ان کی تکذیب کی تو ہم نے نوح علیہ السّلام اور ان کے ساتھیوں کو کشتی میں نجات دے دی اور انہیں زمین کا وارث بنا دیا اور اپنی آیات کی تکذیب کرنے والوں کو ڈبو دیا تو اب دیکھئے کہ جن کو ڈرایا جاتا ہے ان کے نہ ماننے کا انجام کیا ہوتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] They rejected Him, but We delivered him, and those with him, in the Ark, and We made them inherit (the earth), while We overwhelmed in the flood those who rejected Our Signs. Then see what was the end of those who were warned (but heeded not)!
[ PICKTHAL ] But they denied him, so We saved him and those with him in the ship, and made them viceroys (in the earth), while We drowned those who denied Our revelations. See then the nature of the consequence for those who had been warned.
[ SHAKIR ] But they rejected him, so We delivered him and those with him in the ark, and We made them rulers and drowned those who rejected Our communications; see then what was the end of the (people) warned.

ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ مُوسَىٰ وَهَارُونَ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَئِهِ بِآيَاتِنَا فَاسْتَكْبَرُوا وَكَانُوا قَوْمًا مُجْرِمِينَ (75
پھر ہم نے ان رسولوں کے بعد فرعون اور اس کی جماعت کی طرف موسٰی اور ہارون کو اپنی نشانیاں دے کر بھیجا تو ان لوگوں نے بھی انکار کردیا اور وہ سب بھی مجرم لوگ تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] Then after them sent We Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh and his chiefs with Our Signs. But they were arrogant: they were a people in sin.
[ PICKTHAL ] Then, after them, We sent Moses and Aaron unto Pharaoh and his chiefs with Our revelations, but they were arrogant and were a guilty folk.
[ SHAKIR ] Then did We send up after them Musa and Haroun to Firon and his chiefs with Our signs, but they showed pride and they were a guilty people.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 53
قَالُوا يَا هُودُ مَا جِئْتَنَا بِبَيِّنَةٍ وَمَا نَحْنُ بِتَارِكِي آلِهَتِنَا عَنْ قَوْلِكَ وَمَا نَحْنُ لَكَ بِمُؤْمِنِينَ (53
ان لوگوں نے کہا اے ہود تم کوئی معجزہ تو لائے نہیں اور ہم صرف تمہارے کہنے پر اپنے خداؤں کو چھوڑنے والے اور تمہاری بات پر ایمان لانے والے نہیں ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] They said: "O Hud! No Clear (Sign) that hast thou brought us, and we are not the ones to desert our gods on thy word! Nor shall we believe in thee!
[ PICKTHAL ] They said: O Hud! Thou hast brought us no clear proof and we are not going to forsake our gods on thy (mere) saying, and we are not believers in thee.
[ SHAKIR ] They said: O Hud! you have not brought to us any clear argument and we are not going to desert our gods for your word, and we are not believers in you:
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) From Ayat: 59 to 60
وَتِلْكَ عَادٌ ۖ جَحَدُوا بِآيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَعَصَوْا رُسُلَهُ وَاتَّبَعُوا أَمْرَ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ (59
یہ قوم عاد ہے جس نے پروردگار کی آیتوں کا انکار کیا اس کے رسولوں کی نافرمانی کی اور ہر ظالم و سرکش کا اتباع کرلیا
[YOUSAF ALI] Such were the 'Ad People: they rejected the Signs of their Lord and Cherisher; disobeyed His messengers; And followed the command of every powerful, obstinate transgressor.
[ PICKTHAL ] And such were A'ad. They denied the revelations of their Lord and flouted His messengers and followed the command of every froward potentate.
[ SHAKIR ] And this was Ad; they denied the communications of their Lord, and disobeyed His messengers and followed the bidding of every insolent opposer (of truth).
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) From Ayat: 59 to 60
وَأُتْبِعُوا فِي هَٰذِهِ الدُّنْيَا لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ۗ أَلَا إِنَّ عَادًا كَفَرُوا رَبَّهُمْ ۗ أَلَا بُعْدًا لِعَادٍ قَوْمِ هُودٍ (60
اور اس دنیا میں بھی اور قیامت میں بھی ان کے پیچھے لعنت لگادی گئی ہے -آگاہ ہوجاؤ کہ عاد نے اپنے پررودگار کا کفر کیا تو اب ہود کی قوم عاد کے لئے ہلاکت ہی ہلاکت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And they were pursued by a Curse in this life,- and on the Day of Judgment. Ah! Behold! for the 'Ad rejected their Lord and Cherisher! Ah! Behold! removed (from sight) were 'Ad the people of Hud!
[ PICKTHAL ] And a curse was made to follow them in the world and on the Day of Resurrection. Lo! A'ad disbelieved in their Lord. A far removal for A'ad, the folk of Hud!
[ SHAKIR ] And they were overtaken by curse in this world and on the resurrection day; now surely Ad disbelieved in their Lord; now surely, away with Ad, the people of Hud.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 62
قَالُوا يَا صَالِحُ قَدْ كُنْتَ فِينَا مَرْجُوًّا قَبْلَ هَٰذَا ۖ أَتَنْهَانَا أَنْ نَعْبُدَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا وَإِنَّنَا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِمَّا تَدْعُونَا إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ (62
ان لوگوں نے کہا کہ اے صالح اس سے پہلے تم سے بڑی امیدیں وابستہ تھیں کیا تم اس بات سے روکتے ہو کہ ہم اپنے بزرگوں کے معبودوں کی پرستش کریں -ہم یقینا تمہاری دعوت کی طرف سے شک اور شبہ میں ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] They said: "O Salih! thou hast been of us! a centre of our hopes hitherto! dost thou (now) forbid us the worship of what our fathers worshipped? But we are really in suspicious (disquieting) doubt as to that to which thou invitest us."
[ PICKTHAL ] They said: O Salih! Thou hast been among us hitherto as that wherein our hope was placed. Dost thou ask us not to worship what our fathers worshipped? Lo! we verily are in grave doubt concerning that to which thou callest us.
[ SHAKIR ] They said: O Salih! surely you were one amongst us in whom great expectations were placed before this; do you (now) forbid us from worshipping what our fathers worshipped? And as to that which you call us to, most surely we are in disquieting doubt.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) From Ayat: 66 to 68
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ أَمْرُنَا نَجَّيْنَا صَالِحًا وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَهُ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِنَّا وَمِنْ خِزْيِ يَوْمِئِذٍ ۗ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ الْقَوِيُّ الْعَزِيزُ (66
اس کے بعد جب ہمارا حکم عذاب آپہنچا تو ہم نے صالح اور ان کے ساتھ کے صاحبانِ ایمان کو اپنی رحمت سے اپنے عذاب اور اس دن کی رسوائی سے بچالیا کہ تمہارا پروردگار صاحب هقوت اور سب پر غالب ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] When Our Decree issued, We saved Salih and those who believed with him, by (special) Grace from Ourselves - and from the Ignominy of that day. For thy Lord - He is the Strong One, and able to enforce His Will.
[ PICKTHAL ] So, when Our commandment came to pass, We saved Salih, and those who believed with him, by a mercy from Us, from the ignominy of that day. Lo, thy Lord! He is the Strong, the Mighty.
[ SHAKIR ] So when Our decree came to pass, We delivered Salih and those who believed with him by mercy from Us, and (We saved them) from the disgrace of that day; surely your Lord is the Strong, the Mighty.

وَأَخَذَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا الصَّيْحَةُ فَأَصْبَحُوا فِي دِيَارِهِمْ جَاثِمِينَ (67
اور ظلم کرنے والوں کو ایک چنگھاڑنے اپنی لپیٹ میں لے لیا تو وہ اپنے دیار میں اوندھے پڑے رہ گئے
[YOUSAF ALI] The (mighty) Blast overtook the wrong-doers, and they lay prostrate in their homes before the morning,-
[ PICKTHAL ] And the (awful) Cry overtook those who did wrong, so that morning found them prostrate in their dwellings,
[ SHAKIR ] And the rumbling overtook those who were unjust, so they became motionless bodies in their abodes,
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) From Ayat: 66 to 68
كَأَنْ لَمْ يَغْنَوْا فِيهَا ۗ أَلَا إِنَّ ثَمُودَ كَفَرُوا رَبَّهُمْ ۗ أَلَا بُعْدًا لِثَمُودَ (68
جیسے کبھی یہاں بسے ہی نہیں تھے -آگاہ ہوجاؤ کہ ثمود نے اپنے رب کی نافرمانی کی ہے اور ہوشیار ہوجاؤ کہ ثمود کے لئے ہلاکت ہی ہلاکت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] As if they had never dwelt and flourished there. Ah! Behold! for the Thamud rejected their Lord and Cherisher! Ah! Behold! removed (from sight) were the Thamud!
[ PICKTHAL ] As though they had not dwelt there. Lo! Thamud disbelieved in their Lord. A far removal for Thamud!
[ SHAKIR ] As though they had never dwelt in them; now surely did Samood disbelieve in their Lord; now surely, away with Samood.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 82
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ أَمْرُنَا جَعَلْنَا عَالِيَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهَا حِجَارَةً مِنْ سِجِّيلٍ مَنْضُودٍ (82
پھر جب ہمارا عذاب آگیا تو ہم نے زمین کو تہ و بالا کردیا اور ان پر مسلسل کھرنجے دار پتھروں کی بارش کردی
[YOUSAF ALI] When Our Decree issued, We turned (the cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay, spread, layer on layer,-
[ PICKTHAL ] So when Our commandment came to pass We overthrew (that township) and rained upon it stones of clay, one after another,
[ SHAKIR ] So when Our decree came to pass, We turned them upside down and rained down upon them stones, of what had been decreed, one after another.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 87
قَالُوا يَا شُعَيْبُ أَصَلَاتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَنْ نَتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا أَوْ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ فِي أَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشَاءُ ۖ إِنَّكَ لَأَنْتَ الْحَلِيمُ الرَّشِيدُ (87
ان لوگوں نے طنز کیا کہ شعیب کیا تمہاری نماز تمہیں یہ حکم دیتی ہے کہ ہم اپنے بزرگوں کے معبودوں کو چھوڑ دیں یا اپنے اموال میں اپنی مرضی کے مطابق تصرف نہ کریں تم تو بڑے بردبار اور سمجھ دار معلوم ہوتے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] They said: "O Shu'aib! Does thy (religion of) prayer command thee that we leave off the worship which our fathers practised, or that we leave off doing what we like with our property? truly, thou art the one that forbeareth with faults and is right-minded!"
[ PICKTHAL ] They said: O Shu'eyb! Doth thy way of prayer command thee that we should forsake that which our fathers (used to) worship, or that we (should leave off) doing what we will with our own property. Lo! thou art the mild, the guide to right behaviour.
[ SHAKIR ] They said: O Shu'aib! does your prayer enjoin you that we should forsake what our fathers worshipped or that we should not do what we please with regard to our property? Forsooth you are the forbearing, the right-directing one.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) From Ayat: 94 to 95
وَلَمَّا جَاءَ أَمْرُنَا نَجَّيْنَا شُعَيْبًا وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَهُ بِرَحْمَةٍ مِنَّا وَأَخَذَتِ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا الصَّيْحَةُ فَأَصْبَحُوا فِي دِيَارِهِمْ جَاثِمِينَ (94
اور جب ہمارا حکم (عذاب)آگیا تو ہم نے شعیب اور ان کے ساتھ ایمان لانے والوں کو اپنی رحمت سے بچالیا اور ظلم کرنے والوں کو ایک چنگھاڑنے پکڑ لیا تو وہ اپنے دیار ہی میں الٹ پلٹ ہوگئے
[YOUSAF ALI] When Our decree issued, We saved Shu'aib and those who believed with him, by (special) mercy from Ourselves: But the (mighty) blast did seize the wrong-doers, and they lay prostrate in their homes by the morning,-
[ PICKTHAL ] And when Our commandment came to pass We saved Shu'eyb and those who believed with him by a mercy from Us; and the (Awful) Cry seized those who did injustice, and morning found them prostrate in their dwellings,

كَأَنْ لَمْ يَغْنَوْا فِيهَا ۗ أَلَا بُعْدًا لِمَدْيَنَ كَمَا بَعِدَتْ ثَمُودُ (95
جیسے کبھی یہاں بسے ہی نہیں تھے اور آگاہ ہوجاؤ کہ قوم مدین کے لئے ویسے ہی ہلاکت ہے جیسے قوم ثمود ہلاک ہوگئی تھی
[YOUSAF ALI] As if they had never dwelt and flourished there! Ah! Behold! How the Madyan were removed (from sight) as were removed the Thamud!
[ PICKTHAL ] As though they had not dwelt there. A far removal for Midian, even as Thamud had been removed afar!
[ SHAKIR ] As though they had never dwelt in them; now surely perdition overtook Madyan as had perished Samood.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 120
وَكُلًّا نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنْبَاءِ الرُّسُلِ مَا نُثَبِّتُ بِهِ فُؤَادَكَ ۚ وَجَاءَكَ فِي هَٰذِهِ الْحَقُّ وَمَوْعِظَةٌ وَذِكْرَىٰ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ (120
"اور ہم قدیم رسولوں کے واقعات آپ سے بیان کررہے ہیں کہ ان کے ذریعہ آپ کے دل کو مضبوط رکھیں اور ان واقعات میں حق ,نصیحت اور صاحبان هایمان کے لئے سامانِ عبرت بھی ہے"
[YOUSAF ALI] All that we relate to thee of the stories of the messengers,- with it We make firm thy heart: in them there cometh to thee the Truth, as well as an exhortation and a message of remembrance to those who believe.
[ PICKTHAL ] And all that We relate unto thee of the story of the messengers is in order that thereby We may make firm thy heart. And herein hath come unto thee the Truth and an exhortation and a reminder for believers.
[ SHAKIR ] And all we relate to you of the accounts of the messengers is to strengthen your heart therewith; and in this has come to you the truth and an admonition, and a reminder to the believers.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 120
وَكُلًّا نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنْبَاءِ الرُّسُلِ مَا نُثَبِّتُ بِهِ فُؤَادَكَ ۚ وَجَاءَكَ فِي هَٰذِهِ الْحَقُّ وَمَوْعِظَةٌ وَذِكْرَىٰ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ (120

- Sura: 12 - Yusuf (Joseph) Ayat: 109
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ إِلَّا رِجَالًا نُوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْقُرَىٰ ۗ أَفَلَمْ يَسِيرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ ۗ وَلَدَارُ الْآخِرَةِ خَيْرٌ لِلَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا ۗ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ (109
اور ہم نے آپ سے پہلے ان ہی مذِدوں کو رسول بنایا ہے جو آبادیوں میں رہنے والے تھے اور ہم نے ان کی طرف وحی بھی کی ہے تو کیا یہ لوگ زمین میں سیر نہیں کرتے کہ دیکھیں کہ ان سے پہلے والوں کا انجام کیا ہوا ہے اور دا» آخرت صرف صاحبانِ تقوٰی کے لئے بہترین منزل ہے -کیا تم لوگ عقل سے کام نہیں لیتے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] Nor did We send before thee (as messengers) any but men, whom we did inspire,- (men) living in human habitations. Do they not travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those before them? But the home of the hereafter is best, for those who do right. Will ye not then understand?
[ PICKTHAL ] We sent not before thee (any messengers) save men whom We inspired from among the folk of the townships - Have they not travelled in the land and seen the nature of the consequence for those who were before them? And verily the abode of the Hereafter, for those who ward off (evil), is best. Have ye then no sense? -
[ SHAKIR ] And We have not sent before you but men from (among) the people of the towns, to whom We sent revelations. Have they not then travelled in the land and seen what was the end of those before them? And certainly the abode of the hereafter is best for those who guard (against evil); do you not then understand?
- Sura: 14 - Ibrahim (Abraham) From Ayat: 9 to 12
أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ وَعَادٍ وَثَمُودَ ۛ وَالَّذِينَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ ۛ لَا يَعْلَمُهُمْ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ۚ جَاءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَرَدُّوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَقَالُوا إِنَّا كَفَرْنَا بِمَا أُرْسِلْتُمْ بِهِ وَإِنَّا لَفِي شَكٍّ مِمَّا تَدْعُونَنَا إِلَيْهِ مُرِيبٍ (9
کیا تمہارے پاس اپنے سے پہلے والوں قوم نوح اور قوم عاد و ثمود اور جو ان کے بعد گزرے ہیں اور جنہیں خدا کے علاوہ کوئی نہیں جانتا ہے کی خبر نہیں آئی ہے کہ ان کے پاس اللہ کے رسول معجزات لے کر آئے اور انہوں نے ان کے ہاتھوں کو ان ہی کے منہ کی طرف پلٹا دیا اور صاف کہہ دیا کہ ہم تمہارے لائے ہوئے پیغام کے منکر ہیں اور ہمیں اس بات کے بارے میں واضح شک ہے جس کی طرف تم ہمیں دعوت دے رہے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] Has not the story reached you, (O people!), of those who (went) before you? - of the people of Noah, and 'Ad, and Thamud? - And of those who (came) after them? None knows them but Allah. To them came messengers with Clear (Signs); but they put their hands up to their mouths, and said: "We do deny (the mission) on which ye have been sent, and we are really in suspicious (disquieting) doubt as to that to which ye invite us."
[ PICKTHAL ] Hath not the history of those before you reached you: the folk of Noah, and (the tribes of) A'ad and Thamud, and those after them? None save Allah knoweth them. Their messengers came unto them with clear proofs, but they thrust their hands into their mouths, and said: Lo! we disbelieve in that wherewith ye have been sent, and lo! we are in grave doubt concerning that to which ye call us.
[ SHAKIR ] Has not the account reached you of those before you, of the people of Nuh and Ad and Samood, and those after them? None knows them but Allah. Their messengers come to them with clear arguments, but they thrust their hands into their mouths and said: Surely we deny that with which you are sent, and most surely we are in serious doubt as to that to which you invite us.
- Sura: 14 - Ibrahim (Abraham) From Ayat: 9 to 12
۞ قَالَتْ رُسُلُهُمْ أَفِي اللَّهِ شَكٌّ فَاطِرِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۖ يَدْعُوكُمْ لِيَغْفِرَ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُؤَخِّرَكُمْ إِلَىٰ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى ۚ قَالُوا إِنْ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُنَا تُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَصُدُّونَا عَمَّا كَانَ يَعْبُدُ آبَاؤُنَا فَأْتُونَا بِسُلْطَانٍ مُبِينٍ (10
تو رسولوں نے کہا کہ کیا تمہیں اللہ کے بارے میں بھی شک ہے جو زمین و آسمان کا پیدا کرنے والا ہے اور تمہیں اس لئے بلاتا ہے کہ تمہارے گناہوں کو معاف کردے اور ایک معینہ مدّت تک زمین میں چین سے رہنے دے ....تو ان لوگوں نے جواب دیا کہ تم سب بھی ہمارے ہی جیسے بشر ہو اور چاہتے ہو کہ ہمیں ان چیزوں سے روک دو جن کی ہمارے باپ دادا عبادت کیا کرتے تھے تو اب کوئی کھلی ہوئی دلیل لے آؤ
[YOUSAF ALI] Their messengers said: "Is there a doubt about Allah, The Creator of the heavens and the earth? It is He Who invites you, in order that He may forgive you your sins and give you respite for a term appointed!" They said: "Ah! ye are no more than human, like ourselves! Ye wish to turn us away from the (gods) our fathers used to worship: then bring us some clear authority."
[ PICKTHAL ] Their messengers said: Can there be doubt concerning Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth? He calleth you that He may forgive you your sins and reprieve you unto an appointed term. They said: Ye are but mortals like us, who would fain turn us away from what our fathers used to worship. Then bring some clear warrant.
[ SHAKIR ] Their messengers said: Is there doubt about Allah, the Maker of the heavens and the earth? He invites you to forgive you your faults and to respite you till an appointed term. They said: You are nothing but mortals like us; you wish to turn us away from what our fathers used to worship; bring us therefore some clear authority.
- Sura: 14 - Ibrahim (Abraham) From Ayat: 9 to 12
قَالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ إِنْ نَحْنُ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَمُنُّ عَلَىٰ مَنْ يَشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ ۖ وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا أَنْ نَأْتِيَكُمْ بِسُلْطَانٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ (11
ان سے رسولوں نے کہا کہ یقینا ہم تمہارے ہی جیسے بشر ہیں لیکن خدا جس بندے پر چاہتا ہے مخصوص احسان بھی کرتا ہے اور ہمارے اختیار میں یہ بھی نہیں ہے کہ ہم بلااذنِ خدا کوئی دلیل یا معجزہ لے آئیں اور صاحبان هایمان تو صرف اللہ ہی پر بھروسہ کرتے ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] Their messengers said to them: "True, we are human like yourselves, but Allah doth grant His grace to such of his servants as He pleases. It is not for us to bring you an authority except as Allah permits. And on Allah let all men of faith put their trust.
[ PICKTHAL ] Their messengers said unto them: We are but mortals like you, but Allah giveth grace unto whom He will of His slaves. It is not ours to bring you a warrant unless by the permission of Allah. In Allah let believers put their trust!
[ SHAKIR ] Their messengers said to them: We are nothing but mortals like yourselves, but Allah bestows (His) favors on whom He pleases of His servants, and it is not for us that we should bring you an authority except by Allah's permission; and on Allah should the believers rely.
- Sura: 14 - Ibrahim (Abraham) From Ayat: 9 to 12
وَمَا لَنَا أَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدَانَا سُبُلَنَا ۚ وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلَىٰ مَا آذَيْتُمُونَا ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ (12
اور ہم کیوں نہ اللہ پر بھروسہ کریں جب کہ اسی نے ہمیں ہمارے راستوں کی ہدایت دی ہے اور ہم یقینا تمہاری اذیتوں پر صبر کریں گے اور بھروسہ کرنے والے تو اللہ ہی پر بھروسہ کرتے ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] "No reason have we why we should not put our trust on Allah. Indeed He Has guided us to the Ways we (follow). We shall certainly bear with patience all the hurt you may cause us. For those who put their trust should put their trust on Allah."
[ PICKTHAL ] How should we not put our trust in Allah when He hath shown us our ways? We surely will endure the hurt ye do us. In Allah let the trusting put their trust.
[ SHAKIR ] And what reason have we that we should not rely on Allah? And He has indeed guided us in our ways; and certainly we would bear with patience your persecution of us; and on Allah should the reliant rely.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) Ayat: 7
إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ زِينَةً لَهَا لِنَبْلُوَهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا (7
بیشک ہم نے روئے زمین کی ہر چیز کو زمین کی زینت قرار دے دیا ہے تاکہ ان لوگوں کا امتحان لیں کہ ان میں عمل کے اعتبار سے سب سے بہتر کون ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] That which is on earth we have made but as a glittering show for the earth, in order that We may test them - as to which of them are best in conduct.
[ PICKTHAL ] Lo! We have placed all that is on the earth as an ornament thereof that We may try them: which of them is best in conduct.
[ SHAKIR ] Surely We have made whatever is on the earth an embellishment for it, so that We may try them (as to) which of them is best in works.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
۞ وَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَثَلًا رَجُلَيْنِ جَعَلْنَا لِأَحَدِهِمَا جَنَّتَيْنِ مِنْ أَعْنَابٍ وَحَفَفْنَاهُمَا بِنَخْلٍ وَجَعَلْنَا بَيْنَهُمَا زَرْعًا (32
اور ان کفار کے لئے ان دو انسانوں کی مثال بیان کردیجئے جن میں سے ایک کے لئے ہم نے انگور کے دو باغ قرار دیئے اور انہیں کھجوروں سے گھیر دیا اور ان کے درمیان زراعت بھی قرار دے دی
[YOUSAF ALI] Set forth to them the parable of two men: for one of them We provided two gardens of grape-vines and surrounded them with date palms; in between the two We placed corn-fields.
[ PICKTHAL ] Coin for them a similitude: Two men, unto one of whom We had assigned two gardens of grapes, and We had surrounded both with date-palms and had put between them tillage.
[ SHAKIR ] And set forth to them a parable of two men; for one of them We made two gardens of grape vines, and We surrounded them both with palms, and in the midst of them We made cornfields.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
كِلْتَا الْجَنَّتَيْنِ آتَتْ أُكُلَهَا وَلَمْ تَظْلِمْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا ۚ وَفَجَّرْنَا خِلَالَهُمَا نَهَرًا (33
پھر دونوں باغات نے خوب پھل دیئے اور کسی طرح کی کمی نہیں کی اور ہم نے ان کے درمیان نہر بھی جاری کردی
[YOUSAF ALI] Each of those gardens brought forth its produce, and failed not in the least therein: in the midst of them We caused a river to flow.
[ PICKTHAL ] Each of the gardens gave its fruit and withheld naught thereof. And We caused a river to gush forth therein.
[ SHAKIR ] Both these gardens yielded their fruits, and failed not aught thereof, and We caused a river to gush forth in their midst,
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَكَانَ لَهُ ثَمَرٌ فَقَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ وَهُوَ يُحَاوِرُهُ أَنَا أَكْثَرُ مِنْكَ مَالًا وَأَعَزُّ نَفَرًا (34
اور اس کے پاس پھل بھی تھے تو اس نے اپنے غریب ساتھی سے بات کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ میں تم سے مال کے اعتبار سے بڑھا ہوا ہوں اور افراد کے اعتبار سے بھی زیادہ باعزت ہوں
[YOUSAF ALI] (Abundant) was the produce this man had : he said to his companion, in the course of a mutual argument: "more wealth have I than you, and more honour and power in (my following of) men."
[ PICKTHAL ] And he had fruit. And he said unto his comrade, when he spake with him: I am more than thee in wealth, and stronger in respect of men.
[ SHAKIR ] And he possessed much wealth; so he said to his companion, while he disputed with him: I have greater wealth than you, and am mightier in followers.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَدَخَلَ جَنَّتَهُ وَهُوَ ظَالِمٌ لِنَفْسِهِ قَالَ مَا أَظُنُّ أَنْ تَبِيدَ هَٰذِهِ أَبَدًا (35
وہ اسی عالم میں اپنے نفس پر ظلم کررہا تھا اپنے باغ میں داخل ہوا اور کہنے لگا کہ میں تو خیال بھی کرتا ہوں کہ یہ کبھی تباہ بھی نہیں ہوسکتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] He went into his garden in a state (of mind) unjust to his soul: He said, "I deem not that this will ever perish,
[ PICKTHAL ] And he went into his garden, while he (thus) wronged himself. He said: I think not that all this will ever perish.
[ SHAKIR ] And he entered his garden while he was unjust to himself. He said: I do not think that this will ever perish
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَمَا أَظُنُّ السَّاعَةَ قَائِمَةً وَلَئِنْ رُدِدْتُ إِلَىٰ رَبِّي لَأَجِدَنَّ خَيْرًا مِنْهَا مُنْقَلَبًا (36
اور میرا گمان بھی نہیں ہے کہ کبھی قیامت قائم ہوگی اورپھر اگر میں پروردگار کی بارگاہ میں واپس بھی گیا تو اس سے بہتر منزل حاصل کرلوں گا
[YOUSAF ALI] "Nor do I deem that the Hour (of Judgment) will (ever) come: Even if I am brought back to my Lord, I shall surely find (there) something better in exchange."
[ PICKTHAL ] I think not that the Hour will ever come, and if indeed I am brought back unto my Lord I surely shall find better than this as a resort.
[ SHAKIR ] And I do not think the hour will come, and even if I am returned to my Lord I will most certainly find a returning place better than this.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
قَالَ لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ وَهُوَ يُحَاوِرُهُ أَكَفَرْتَ بِالَّذِي خَلَقَكَ مِنْ تُرَابٍ ثُمَّ مِنْ نُطْفَةٍ ثُمَّ سَوَّاكَ رَجُلًا (37
اس کے ساتھی نے گفتگو کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ تو نے اس کا انکار کیا ہے جس نے تجھے خاک سے پیدا کیا ہے پھر نطفہ سے گزارا ہے اور پھر ایک باقاعدہ انسان بنادیا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] His companion said to him, in the course of the argument with him: "Dost thou deny Him Who created thee out of dust, then out of a sperm-drop, then fashioned thee into a man?
[ PICKTHAL ] His comrade, when he (thus) spake with him, exclaimed: Disbelievest thou in Him Who created thee of dust, then of a drop (of seed), and then fashioned thee a man?
[ SHAKIR ] His companion said to him while disputing with him: Do you disbelieve in Him Who created you from dust, then from a small seed, then He made you a perfect man?
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
لَٰكِنَّا هُوَ اللَّهُ رَبِّي وَلَا أُشْرِكُ بِرَبِّي أَحَدًا (38
لیکن میرا ایمان یہ ہے کہ اللہ میرا رب ہے اور میں کسی کو اس کا شریک نہیں بناسکتا ہوں
[YOUSAF ALI] "But (I think) for my part that He is Allah, My Lord, and none shall I associate with my Lord.
[ PICKTHAL ] But He is Allah, my Lord, and I ascribe unto my Lord no partner.
[ SHAKIR ] But as for me, He, Allah, is my Lord, and I do not associate anyone with my Lord.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَلَوْلَا إِذْ دَخَلْتَ جَنَّتَكَ قُلْتَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ۚ إِنْ تَرَنِ أَنَا أَقَلَّ مِنْكَ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا (39
اور ایسا کیوں نہ ہوا کہ جب تو اپنے باغ میں داخل ہوتا تو کہتا ماشائ اللہ اس کے علاوہ کسی کے پاس کوئی قوت نہیں ہے اگر تو یہ دیکھ رہا ہے کہ میں مال اور اولاد کے اعتبار سے تجھ سے کم تر ہوں
[YOUSAF ALI] "Why didst thou not, as thou wentest into thy garden, say: 'Allah's will (be done)! There is no power but with Allah!' If thou dost see me less than thee in wealth and sons,
[ PICKTHAL ] If only, when thou enteredst thy garden, thou hadst said: That which Allah willeth (will come to pass)! There is no strength save in Allah! Though thou seest me as less than thee in wealth and children,
[ SHAKIR ] And wherefore did you not say when you entered your garden: It is as Allah has pleased, there is no power save in Allah? If you consider me to be inferior to you in wealth and children,
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
فَعَسَىٰ رَبِّي أَنْ يُؤْتِيَنِ خَيْرًا مِنْ جَنَّتِكَ وَيُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهَا حُسْبَانًا مِنَ السَّمَاءِ فَتُصْبِحَ صَعِيدًا زَلَقًا (40
تو امیدوار ہوں کہ میرا پروردگار مجھے بھی تیرے باغات سے بہتر باغات عنایت کردے اور ان باغات پر آسمان سے ایسی آفت نازل کردے جو سب کو خاک کردے اور چٹیل میدان بنادے
[YOUSAF ALI] "It may be that my Lord will give me something better than thy garden, and that He will send on thy garden thunderbolts (by way of reckoning) from heaven, making it (but) slippery sand!-
[ PICKTHAL ] Yet it may be that my Lord will give me better than thy garden, and will send on it a bolt from heaven, and some morning it will be a smooth hillside,
[ SHAKIR ] Then maybe my Lord will give me what is better than your garden, and send on it a thunderbolt from heaven so that it shall become even ground without plant,
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
أَوْ يُصْبِحَ مَاؤُهَا غَوْرًا فَلَنْ تَسْتَطِيعَ لَهُ طَلَبًا (41
یا ان باغات کا پانی خشک ہوجائے اور تو اس کے طلب کرنے پر بھی قادر نہ ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] "Or the water of the garden will run off underground so that thou wilt never be able to find it."
[ PICKTHAL ] Or some morning the water thereof will be lost in the earth so that thou canst not make search for it.
[ SHAKIR ] Or its waters should sink down into the ground so that you are unable to find it.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَأُحِيطَ بِثَمَرِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ يُقَلِّبُ كَفَّيْهِ عَلَىٰ مَا أَنْفَقَ فِيهَا وَهِيَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِهَا وَيَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أُشْرِكْ بِرَبِّي أَحَدًا (42
اور پھر اس کے باغ کے پھل آفت میں گھیر دیئے گئے تو وہ ان اخراجات پر ہاتھ ملنے لگا جو اس نے باغ کی تیاری پر صرف کئے تھے جب کہ باغ اپنی شاخوں کے بل اُلٹا پڑا ہوا تھا اور وہ کہہ رہا تھا کہ اے کاش میں کسی کو اپنے پروردگار کا شریک نہ بناتا
[YOUSAF ALI] So his fruits (and enjoyment) were encompassed (with ruin), and he remained twisting and turning his hands over what he had spent on his property, which had (now) tumbled to pieces to its very foundations, and he could only say, "Woe is me! Would I had never ascribed partners to my Lord and Cherisher!"
[ PICKTHAL ] And his fruit was beset (with destruction). Then began he to wring his hands for all that he had spent upon it, when (now) it was all ruined on its trellises, and to say: Would that I had ascribed no partner to my Lord!
[ SHAKIR ] And his wealth was destroyed; so he began to wring his hands for what he had spent on it, while it lay, having fallen down upon its roofs, and he said: Ah me! would that I had not associated anyone with my Lord.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ فِئَةٌ يَنْصُرُونَهُ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ وَمَا كَانَ مُنْتَصِرًا (43
اور اب اس کے پاس وہ گروہ بھی نہیں تھا جو خدا کے مقابلہ میں اس کی مدد کرتا اور وہ بدلہ بھی نہیں لے سکتا تھا
[YOUSAF ALI] Nor had he numbers to help him against Allah, nor was he able to deliver himself.
[ PICKTHAL ] And he had no troop of men to help him as against Allah, nor could he save himself.
[ SHAKIR ] And he had no host to help him besides Allah nor could he defend himself.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) From Ayat: 32 to 44
هُنَالِكَ الْوَلَايَةُ لِلَّهِ الْحَقِّ ۚ هُوَ خَيْرٌ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ عُقْبًا (44
اس وقت ثابت ہوا کہ قیامت کی نصرت صرف خدائے برحق کے لئے ہے وہی بہترین ثواب دینے والا ہے اور وہی انجام بخیر کرنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] There, the (only) protection comes from Allah, the True One. He is the Best to reward, and the Best to give success.
[ PICKTHAL ] In this case is protection only from Allah, the True, He is Best for reward, and best for consequence.
[ SHAKIR ] Here is protection only Allah's, the True One; He is best in (the giving of) reward and best in requiting.
- Sura: 18 - al-Kahf (The Cave) Ayat: 46
الْمَالُ وَالْبَنُونَ زِينَةُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَالْبَاقِيَاتُ الصَّالِحَاتُ خَيْرٌ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابًا وَخَيْرٌ أَمَلًا (46
مال اور اولاد زندگانی دنیا کی زینت ہیں اور باقی رہ جانے والی نیکیاں پروردگار کے نزدیک ثواب اور امید دونوں کے اعتبار سے بہتر ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of this world: But the things that endure, good deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best as (the foundation for) hopes.
[ PICKTHAL ] Wealth and children are an ornament of the life of the world. But the good deeds which endure are better in thy Lord's sight for reward, and better in respect of hope.
[ SHAKIR ] Wealth and children are an adornment of the life of this world; and the ever-abiding, the good works, are better with your Lord in reward and better in expectation.
- Sura: 20 - Taa-haa (Taa-haa) Ayat: 49
قَالَ فَمَنْ رَبُّكُمَا يَا مُوسَىٰ (49
اس نے کہا کہ موسٰی تم دونوں کا رب کون ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] (When this message was delivered), (Pharaoh) said: "Who, then, O Moses, is the Lord of you two?"
[ PICKTHAL ] (Pharaoh) said: Who then is the Lord of you twain, O Moses?
[ SHAKIR ] (Firon) said: And who is your Lord, O Musa?
- Sura: 22 - al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage) From Ayat: 45 to 46
فَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ أَهْلَكْنَاهَا وَهِيَ ظَالِمَةٌ فَهِيَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِهَا وَبِئْرٍ مُعَطَّلَةٍ وَقَصْرٍ مَشِيدٍ (45

[YOUSAF ALI] How many populations have We destroyed, which were given to wrong-doing? They tumbled down on their roofs. And how many wells are lying idle and neglected, and castles lofty and well-built?
[ PICKTHAL ] How many a township have We destroyed while it was sinful, so that it lieth (to this day) in ruins, and (how many) a deserted well and lofty tower!

[ PICKTHAL ] Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those before them? They were more numerous than these, and mightier in power and (in the) traces (which they left behind them) in the earth. But all that they used to earn availed them not.
