اور خبردار جو لوگ خدا کے دیئے ہوئے میں بخل کرتے ہیں ان کے بارے میں یہ نہ سوچنا کہ اس بخل میں کچھ بھلائی ہے- یہ بہت بُرا ہے اور عنقریب جس مال میں بخل کیا ہے وہ روزِ قیامت ان کی گردن میں طوق بنا دیا جائے گا اور اللہ ہی کے لئے زمین و آسمان کی ملکیت ہے اور وہ تمہارے اعمال سے خوب باخبر ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And let not those who covetously withhold of the gifts which Allah Hath given them of His Grace, think that it is good for them: Nay, it will be the worse for them: soon shall the things which they covetously withheld be tied to their necks Like a twisted collar, on the Day of Judgment. To Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.
[ PICKTHAL ] And let not those who hoard up that which Allah hath bestowed upon them of His bounty think that it is better for them. Nay, it is worse for them. That which they hoard will be their collar on the Day of Resurrection. Allah's is the heritage of the heavens and the earth, and Allah is Informed of what ye do.
[ SHAKIR ] And let not those deem, who are niggardly in giving away that which Allah has granted them out of His grace, that it is good for them; nay, it is worse for them; they shall have that whereof they were niggardly made to cleave to their necks on the resurrection day; and Allah's is the heritage of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is aware of what you do.
- Sura: 4 - an-Nisaa' (The Women) From Ayat: 36 to 37
(36
اور اللہ کی عبادت کرو اور کسی شے کو اس کا شریک نہ بناؤ اور والدین کے ساتھ نیک برتاؤ کرو اور قرابتداروں کے ساتھ اور یتیموں, مسکینوں, قریب کے ہمسایہ, دور کے ہمسایہ, پہلو نشین, مسافر غربت زدہ, غلام و کنیز سب کے ساتھ نیک برتاؤ کرو کہ اللہ مغرور اور متکبّر لوگوں کو پسند نہیں کرتا
[YOUSAF ALI] Serve Allah, and join not any partners with Him; and do good- to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, those in need, neighbours who are near, neighbours who are strangers, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (ye meet), and what your right hands possess: For Allah loveth not the arrogant, the vainglorious;-
[ PICKTHAL ] And serve Allah. Ascribe no thing as partner unto Him. (Show) kindness unto parents, and unto near kindred, and orphans, and the needy, and unto the neighbour who is of kin (unto you) and the neighbour who is not of kin, and the fellow-traveller and the wayfarer and (the slaves) whom your right hands possess. Lo! Allah loveth not such as are proud and boastful,
[ SHAKIR ] And serve Allah and do not associate any thing with Him and be good to the parents and to the near of kin and the orphans and the needy and the neighbor of (your) kin and the alien neighbor, and the companion in a journey and the wayfarer and those whom your right hands possess; surely Allah does not love him who is proud, boastful;
- Sura: 4 - an-Nisaa' (The Women) From Ayat: 36 to 37
(37
جو خود بھی بخل کرتے ہیں اور دوسروں کو بھی بخل کا حکم دیتے ہیں اور جو کچھ خدا نے اپنے فضل و کرم سے عطا کیا ہے اس پر پردہ ڈالتے ہیں اور ہم نے کافروں کے واسطے رُسوا کن عذاب مہّیا کر رکھا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] (Nor) those who are niggardly or enjoin niggardliness on others, or hide the bounties which Allah hath bestowed on them; for We have prepared, for those who resist Faith, a punishment that steeps them in contempt;-
[ PICKTHAL ] Who hoard their wealth and enjoin avarice on others, and hide that which Allah hath bestowed upon them of His bounty. For disbelievers We prepare a shameful doom;
[ SHAKIR ] Those who are niggardly and bid people to be niggardly and hide what Allah has given them out of His grace; and We have prepared for the unbelievers a disgraceful chastisement.
- Sura: 47 - Muhammad (Muhammad) Ayat: 38
هَا أَنْتُمْ هَٰؤُلَاءِ تُدْعَوْنَ لِتُنْفِقُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَمِنْكُمْ مَنْ يَبْخَلُ ۖ وَمَنْ يَبْخَلْ فَإِنَّمَا يَبْخَلُ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ الْغَنِيُّ وَأَنْتُمُ الْفُقَرَاءُ ۚ وَإِنْ تَتَوَلَّوْا يَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْمًا غَيْرَكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُوا أَمْثَالَكُمْ (38
ہاں ہاں تم وہی لوگ ہو جنہیں راہ خدا میں خرچ کرنے کے لئے بلایا جاتا ہے تو تم میں سے بعض لوگ بخل کرنے لگتے ہیں اور جو لوگ بخل کرتے ہیں وہ اپنے ہی حق میں بخل کرتے ہیں اور خدا سب سے بے نیاز ہے تم ہی سب اس کے فقیر اور محتاج ہو اور اگر تم منہ پھیر لو گے تو وہ تمہارے بدلے دوسری قوم کو لے آئے گا جو اس کے بعد تم جیسے نہ ہوں گے
[YOUSAF ALI] Behold, ye are those invited to spend (of your substance) in the Way of Allah: But among you are some that are niggardly. But any who are niggardly are so at the expense of their own souls. But Allah is free of all wants, and it is ye that are needy. If ye turn back (from the Path), He will substitute in your stead another people; then they would not be like you!
[ PICKTHAL ] Lo! ye are those who are called to spend in the way of Allah, yet among you there are some who hoard. And as for him who hoardeth, he hoardeth only from his soul. And Allah is the Rich, and ye are the poor. And if ye turn away He will exchange you for some other folk, and they will not be the likes of you.
[ SHAKIR ] Behold! you are those who are called upon to spend in Allah's way, but among you are those who are niggardly, and whoever is niggardly is niggardly against his own soul; and Allah is Self-sufficient and you have need (of Him), and if you turn back He will bring in your place another people, then they will not be like you.
- Sura: 104 - al-Humaza (The Traducer) From Ayat: 1 to 3
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُمَزَةٍ (1
تباہی اور بربادی ہے ہر طعنہ زن اور چغلخور کے لئے
[YOUSAF ALI] Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter,
[ PICKTHAL ] Woe unto every slandering traducer,
[ SHAKIR ] Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
- Sura: 104 - al-Humaza (The Traducer) From Ayat: 1 to 3
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ (2
جس نے مال کو جمع کیا اور خوب اس کا حساب رکھا
[YOUSAF ALI] Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
[ PICKTHAL ] Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
[ SHAKIR ] Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
- Sura: 104 - al-Humaza (The Traducer) From Ayat: 1 to 3
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ (3
اس کا خیال تھا کہ یہ مال اسے ہمیشہ باقی رکھے گا
[YOUSAF ALI] Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
[ PICKTHAL ] He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
[ SHAKIR ] He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
