یہ کہتے ہیں کہ ہمیں آتش جہّنم چند دن کے علاوہ چھو بھی نہیں سکتی. ان سے پوچھئے کہ کیا تم نے اللہ سے کوئی عہد لے لیا ہے جس کی وہ مخالفت نہیں کرسکتا یا اس کے خلاف جہالت کی باتیں کر رہے ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] And they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days:" Say: "Have ye taken a promise from Allah, for He never breaks His promise? or is it that ye say of Allah what ye do not know?"
[ PICKTHAL ] And they say: The Fire (of punishment) will not touch us save for a certain number of days. Say: Have ye received a covenant from Allah - truly Allah will not break His covenant - or tell ye concerning Allah that which ye know not?
[ SHAKIR ] And they say: Fire shall not touch us but for a few days. Say: Have you received a promise from Allah, then Allah will not fail to perform His promise, or do you speak against Allah what you do not know?

ماہِ رمضان وہ مہینہ ہے جس میں قرآن نازل کیا گیا ہے جو لوگوں کے لئے ہدایت ہے اور اس میں ہدایت اور حق و باطل کے امتیاز کی واضح نشانیاں موجود ہیں لہٰذا جو شخص اس مہینہ میں حاضر رہے اس کا فرض ہے کہ روزہ رکھے اور جو مریض یا مسافر ہو وہ اتنے ہی دن دوسرے زمانہ میں رکھے۔ خدا تمہارے بارے میں آسانی چاہتا ہے زحمت نہیں چاہتا۔ اور اتنے ہی دن کا حکم اس لئے ہے کہ تم عدد پورے کر دو اور اللہ تعالیٰ کی دی ہوئی ہدایت پر اس کی کبریائی کا اقرار کرو اور شاید تم اس طرح اس کے شکر گزار بندے بن جاؤ
[YOUSAF ALI] Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful.
[ PICKTHAL ] The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind, and clear proofs of the guidance, and the Criterion (of right and wrong). And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, (let him fast the same) number of other days. Allah desireth for you ease; He desireth not hardship for you; and (He desireth) that ye should complete the period, and that ye should magnify Allah for having guided you, and that peradventure ye may be thankful.
[ SHAKIR ] The month of Ramazan is that in which the Quran was revealed, a guidance to men and clear proofs of the guidance and the distinction; therefore whoever of you is present in the month, he shall fast therein, and whoever is sick or upon a journey, then (he shall fast) a (like) number of other days; Allah desires ease for you, and He does not desire for you difficulty, and (He desires) that you should complete the number and that you should exalt the greatness of Allah for His having guided you and that you may give thanks.

حج اور عمرہ کو اللہ کے لئے تمام کرو۔ اب اگر گرفتار ہوجاؤ تو جو قربانی ممکن ہو وہ دے دو اور اس وقت تک سر نہ منڈواؤ جب تک قربانی اپنی منزل تک نہ پہنچ جائے۔ اب جو تم میں سے مریض ہے یا اس کے سر میں کوئی تکلیف ہے تو وہ روزہ یا صدقہ یا قربانی دے دے۔ پھر جب اطمینان ہوجائے تو جس نے عمرہ سے حج تمتع کا ارادہ کیا ہے وہ ممکنہ قربانی دے دے اور قربانی نہ مل سکے تو تین روزے حج کے دوران اور سات واپس آنے کے بعد رکھے کہ اس طرح دس پورے ہوجائیں. یہ حج تمتع اور قربانی ان لوگوں کے لئے ہے جن کے اہلِ مسجدالحرام کے حاضر شمار نہیں ہوتے۔ اور اللہ سے ڈرتے رہو اور یہ یاد رکھو کہ خدا کا عذاب بہت سخت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And complete the Hajj or 'umra in the service of Allah. But if ye are prevented (From completing it), send an offering for sacrifice, such as ye may find, and do not shave your heads until the offering reaches the place of sacrifice. And if any of you is ill, or has an ailment in his scalp, (Necessitating shaving), (He should) in compensation either fast, or feed the poor, or offer sacrifice; and when ye are in peaceful conditions (again), if any one wishes to continue the 'umra on to the hajj, He must make an offering, such as he can afford, but if he cannot afford it, He should fast three days during the hajj and seven days on his return, Making ten days in all. This is for those whose household is not in (the precincts of) the Sacred Mosque. And fear Allah, and know that Allah Is strict in punishment.
[ PICKTHAL ] Perform the pilgrimage and the visit (to Makka) for Allah. And if ye are prevented, then send such gifts as can be obtained with ease, and shave not your heads until the gifts have reached their destination. And whoever among you is sick or hath an ailment of the head must pay a ransom of fasting or almsgiving or offering. And if ye are in safety, then whosoever contenteth himself with the visit for the pilgrimage (shall give) such gifts as can be had with ease. And whosoever cannot find (such gifts), then a fast of three days while on the pilgrimage, and of seven when ye have returned; that is, ten in all. That is for him whoso folk are not present at the Inviolable Place of Worship. Observe your duty to Allah, and know that Allah is severe in punishment.
[ SHAKIR ] And accomplish the pilgrimage and the visit for Allah, but if, you are prevented, (send) whatever offering is easy to obtain, and do not shave your heads until the offering reaches its destination; but whoever among you is sick or has an ailment of the head, he (should effect) a compensation by fasting or alms or sacrificing, then when you are secure, whoever profits by combining the visit with the pilgrimage (should take) what offering is easy to obtain; but he who cannot find (any offering) should fast for three days during the pilgrimage and for seven days when you return; these (make) ten (days) complete; this is for him whose family is not present in the Sacred Mosque, and be careful (of your duty) to Allah, and know that Allah is severe in requiting (evil).

[YOUSAF ALI] The life of this world is alluring to those who reject faith, and they scoff at those who believe. But the righteous will be above them on the Day of Resurrection; for Allah bestows His abundance without measure on whom He will.
[ PICKTHAL ] Beautified is the life of the world for those who disbelieve; they make a jest of the believers. But those who keep their duty to Allah will be above them on the Day of Resurrection. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.

[YOUSAF ALI] Divorced women shall wait concerning themselves for three monthly periods. Nor is it lawful for them to hide what Allah Hath created in their wombs, if they have faith in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have the better right to take them back in that period, if they wish for reconciliation. And women shall have rights similar to the rights against them, according to what is equitable; but men have a degree (of advantage) over them. And Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
[ PICKTHAL ] Women who are divorced shall wait, keeping themselves apart, three (monthly) courses. And it is not lawful for them that they should conceal that which Allah hath created in their wombs if they are believers in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands would do better to take them back in that case if they desire a reconciliation. And they (women) have rights similar to those (of men) over them in kindness, and men are a degree above them. Allah is Mighty, Wise.

طلاق دو مرتبہ دی جائے گی. اس کے بعد یا نیکی کے ساتھ روک لیا جائے گا یا حسنِ سلوک کے ساتھ آزاد کردیا جائے گا اور تمہارے لئے جائز نہیں ہے کہ جو کچھ انہیں دے دیا ہے اس میں سے کچھ واپس لو مگر یہ کہ یہ اندیشہ ہو کہ دونوں حدود الٰہی کو قائم نہ رکھ سکیں گے تو جب تمہیں یہ خوف پیدا ہوجائے کہ وہ دونوں حدود الٰہی کو قائم نہ رکھ سکیں گے تو دونوں کے لئے آزادی ہے اس فدیہ کے بارے میں جو عورت مرد کو دے۔ لیکن یہ حدود الہٰیہ ہیں ان سے تجاوز نہ کرنا اور جو حدود الٰہی سے تجاوز کرے گا وہ ظالمین میں شمار ہوگا
[YOUSAF ALI] A divorce is only permissible twice: after that, the parties should either hold Together on equitable terms, or separate with kindness. It is not lawful for you, (Men), to take back any of your gifts (from your wives), except when both parties fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah. If ye (judges) do indeed fear that they would be unable to keep the limits ordained by Allah, there is no blame on either of them if she give something for her freedom. These are the limits ordained by Allah; so do not transgress them if any do transgress the limits ordained by Allah, such persons wrong (Themselves as well as others).
[ PICKTHAL ] Divorce must be pronounced twice and then (a woman) must be retained in honour or released in kindness. And it is not lawful for you that ye take from women aught of that which ye have given them; except (in the case) when both fear that they may not be able to keep within the limits (imposed by) Allah. And if ye fear that they may not be able to keep the limits of Allah, in that case it is no sin for either of them if the woman ransom herself. These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Transgress them not. For whoso transgresseth Allah's limits: such are wrong-doers.
[ SHAKIR ] Divorce may be (pronounced) twice, then keep (them) in good fellowship or let (them) go with kindness; and it is not lawful for you to take any part of what you have given them, unless both fear that they cannot keep within the limits of Allah; then if you fear that they cannot keep within the limits of Allah, there is no blame on them for what she gives up to become free thereby. These are the limits of Allah, so do not exceed them and whoever exceeds the limits of Allah these it is that are the unjust.

پھر اگر تیسری مرتبہ طلاق دے دی تو عورت مرد کے لئے حلال نہ ہو گی یہاں تک کہ دوسرا شوہر کرے پھر اگر وہ طلاق دے دے تو دونوں کے لئے کوئی حرج نہیں ہے کہ آپس میں میل کر لیں اگر یہ خیال ہے کہ حدود الہٰیہ کو قائم رکھ سکیں گے۔ یہ حدود الہٰیہ ہیں جنہیں خدا صاحبانِ علم و اطلاع کے لئے واضح طور سے بیان کر رہا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] So if a husband divorces his wife (irrevocably), He cannot, after that, re-marry her until after she has married another husband and He has divorced her. In that case there is no blame on either of them if they re-unite, provided they feel that they can keep the limits ordained by Allah. Such are the limits ordained by Allah, which He makes plain to those who understand.
[ PICKTHAL ] And if he hath divorced her (the third time), then she is not lawful unto him thereafter until she hath wedded another husband. Then if he (the other husband) divorce her it is no sin for both of them that they come together again if they consider that they are able to observe the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah. He manifesteth them for people who have knowledge.
[ SHAKIR ] So if he divorces her she shall not be lawful to him afterwards until she marries another husband; then if he divorces her there is no blame on them both if they return to each other (by marriage), if they think that they can keep within the limits of Allah, and these are the limits of Allah which He makes clear for a people who know.

[YOUSAF ALI] When ye divorce women, and they fulfil the term of their ('Iddat), either take them back on equitable terms or set them free on equitable terms; but do not take them back to injure them, (or) to take undue advantage; if any one does that; He wrongs his own soul. Do not treat Allah's Signs as a jest, but solemnly rehearse Allah's favours on you, and the fact that He sent down to you the Book and Wisdom, for your instruction. And fear Allah, and know that Allah is well acquainted with all things.
[ PICKTHAL ] When ye have divorced women, and they have reached their term, then retain them in kindness or release them in kindness. Retain them not to their hurt so that ye transgress (the limits). He who doeth that hath wronged his soul. Make not the revelations of Allah a laughing-stock (by your behaviour), but remember Allah's grace upon you and that which He hath revealed unto you of the Scripture and of wisdom, whereby He doth exhort you. Observe your duty to Allah and know that Allah is Aware of all things.
[ SHAKIR ] And when you divorce women and they reach their prescribed time, then either retain them in good fellowship or set them free with liberality, and do not retain them for injury, so that you exceed the limits, and whoever does this, he indeed is unjust to his own soul; and do not take Allah's communications for a mockery, and remember the favor of Allah upon you, and that which He has revealed to you of the Book and the Wisdom, admonishing you thereby; and be careful (of your duty to) Allah, and know that Allah is the Knower of all things.

This instruction is for all amongst you, who believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is (the course Making for) most virtue and purity amongst you and Allah knows, and ye know not.
[ PICKTHAL ] And when ye have divorced women and they reach their term, place not difficulties in the way of their marrying their husbands if it is agreed between them in kindness. This is an admonition for him among you who believeth in Allah and the Last Day. That is more virtuous for you, and cleaner. Allah knoweth; ye know not.

ایمان والو جب بھی آپس میں ایک مقررہ مدّت کے لئے قرض کا لین دین کرو تو اسے لکھ لو اور تمہارے درمیان کوئی بھی کاتب لکھے لیکن انصاف کے ساتھ لکھے اور کاتب کو نہ چاہئے کہ خدا کی تعلیم کے مطابق لکھنے سے انکار کرے۔ اسے لکھ دینا چاہئے اور جس کے ذمہ قرض ہے اس کو چاہئے کہ وہ املا کرے اور اس خدا سے ڈرتا رہے جو اس کا پالنے والا ہے اور کسی طرح کی کمی نہ کرے۔ اب اگر جس کے ذمہ قرض ہے وہ نادان کمزور یا مضمون بتانے کے قابل نہیں ہے تو اس کا ولی مضمون تیار کرے- اور اپنے مردوں میں سے دو کو گواہ بناؤ اور دو مرد نہ ہوں تو ایک مرد اور دو عورتیں تاکہ ایک بہکنے لگے تو دوسری یاد دلا دے اور گواہوں کو چاہئے کہ گواہی کے لئے بلائے جائیں تو انکار نہ کریں اور خبردار لکھا پڑھی سے ناگواری کا اظہار نہ کرنا چاہے قرض چھوٹا ہو یا بڑا مّدت معین ہونی چاہئے۔ یہی پروردگار کے نزدیک عدالت کے مطابق اور گواہی کے لئے زیادہ مستحکم طریقہ ہے اور اس امر سے قریب تر ہے کہ آپس میں شک و شبہ نہ پیدا ہو- ہاں اگر تجارت نقد ہے جس سے تم لوگ آپس میں اموال کی الٹ پھیر کرتے ہو تو نہ لکھنے میں کوئی حرج بھی نہیں ہے اور اگر تجارت میں بھی گواہ بناؤ تو کاتب یا گواہ کو حق نہیں کہ اپنے طرزِ عمل سے لوگوں کو نقصان پہنچائے اور نہ لوگوں کو یہ حق ہے اور اگر تم نے ایسا کیا تو یہ اطاعتِ خدا سے نافرمانی ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] O ye who believe! When ye deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligations in a fixed period of time, reduce them to writing Let a scribe write down faithfully as between the parties: let not the scribe refuse to write: as Allah Has taught him, so let him write. Let him who incurs the liability dictate, but let him fear His Lord Allah, and not diminish aught of what he owes. If they party liable is mentally deficient, or weak, or unable Himself to dictate, Let his guardian dictate faithfully, and get two witnesses, out of your own men, and if there are not two men, then a man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses, so that if one of them errs, the other can remind her. The witnesses should not refuse when they are called on (For evidence). Disdain not to reduce to writing (your contract) for a future period, whether it be small or big: it is juster in the sight of Allah, More suitable as evidence, and more convenient to prevent doubts among yourselves but if it be a transaction which ye carry out on the spot among yourselves, there is no blame on you if ye reduce it not to writing. But take witness whenever ye make a commercial contract; and let neither scribe nor witness suffer harm. If ye do (such harm), it would be wickedness in you. So fear Allah; For it is Good that teaches you. And Allah is well acquainted with all things. If ye are on a journey, and cannot find a scribe, a pledge with possession (may serve the purpose). And if one of you deposits a thing on trust with another, let the trustee (faithfully) discharge his trust, and let him Fear his Lord conceal not evidence; for whoever conceals it, - his heart is tainted with sin. And Allah knoweth all that ye do.
[ PICKTHAL ] O ye who believe! When ye contract a debt for a fixed term, record it in writing. Let a scribe record it in writing between you in (terms of) equity. No scribe should refuse to write as Allah hath taught him, so let him write, and let him who incurreth the debt dictate, and let him observe his duty to Allah his Lord, and diminish naught thereof. But if he who oweth the debt is of low understanding, or weak, or unable himself to dictate, then let the guardian of his interests dictate in (terms of) equity. And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not (at hand) then a man and two women, of such as ye approve as witnesses, so that if the one erreth (through forgetfulness) the other will remember. And the witnesses must not refuse when they are summoned. Be not averse to writing down (the contract) whether it be small or great, with (record of) the term thereof. That is more equitable in the sight of Allah and more sure for testimony, and the best way of avoiding doubt between you; save only in the case when it is actual merchandise which ye transfer among yourselves from hand to hand. In that case it is no sin for you if ye write it not. And have witnesses when ye sell one to another, and let no harm be done to scribe or witness. If ye do (harm to them) lo! it is a sin in you. Observe your duty to Allah. Allah is teaching you. And Allah is knower of all things.
[ SHAKIR ] O you who believe! when you deal with each other in contracting a debt for a fixed time, then write it down; and let a scribe write it down between you with fairness; and the scribe should not refuse to write as Allah has taught him, so he should write; and let him who owes the debt dictate, and he should be careful of (his duty to) Allah, his Lord, and not diminish anything from it; but if he who owes the debt is unsound in understanding, or weak, or (if) he is not able to dictate himself, let his guardian dictate with fairness; and call in to witness from among your men two witnesses; but if there are not two men, then one man and two women from among those whom you choose to be witnesses, so that if one of the two errs, the second of the two may remind the other; and the witnesses should not refuse when they are summoned; and be not averse to writing it (whether it is) small or large, with the time of its falling due; this is more equitable in the sight of Allah and assures greater accuracy in testimony, and the nearest (way) that you may not entertain doubts (afterwards), except when it is ready merchandise which you give and take among yourselves from hand to hand, then there is no blame on you in not writing it down; and have witnesses when you barter with one another, and let no harm be done to the scribe or to the witness; and if you do (it) then surely it will be a transgression in you, and be careful of (your duty) to Allah, Allah teaches you, and Allah knows all things.

اللہ کسی نفس کو اس کی وسعت سے زیادہ تکلیف نہیں دیتا۔ ہر نفس کے لئے اس کی حاصل کی ہوئی نیکیوں کا فائدہ بھی ہے اور اس کی کمائی ہوئی برائیوں کا مظلمہ بھی- پروردگار! ہم جو کچھ بھول جائیں یا ہم سے غلطی ہو جائے اس کا ہم سے مواخذہ نہ کرنا۔ خدایا ہم پر ویسا بوجھ نہ ڈالنا جیسا پہلے والی امتوں پر ڈالا گیا ہے پروردگار! ہم پر وہ بار نہ ڈالنا جس کی ہم میں طاقت نہ ہو۔ ہمیں معاف کردینا ، ہمیں بخش دینا ، ہم پر رحم کرنا ، تو ہمارا مولا اور مالک ہے اب کافروں کے مقابلہ میں ہماری مدد فرما
[YOUSAF ALI] On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against faith."
[ PICKTHAL ] Allah tasketh not a soul beyond its scope. For it (is only) that which it hath earned, and against it (only) that which it hath deserved. Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget, or miss the mark! Our Lord! Lay not on us such a burden as thou didst lay on those before us! Our Lord! Impose not on us that which we have not the strength to bear! Pardon us, absolve us and have mercy on us, Thou, our Protector, and give us victory over the disbelieving folk.
[ SHAKIR ] Allah does not impose upon any soul a duty but to the extent of its ability; for it is (the benefit of) what it has earned and upon it (the evil of) what it has wrought: Our Lord! do not punish us if we forget or make a mistake; Our Lord! do not lay on us a burden as Thou didst lay on those before us, Our Lord do not impose upon us that which we have not the strength to bear; and pardon us and grant us protection and have mercy on us, Thou art our Patron, so help us against the unbelieving people.

دین اللہ کے نزدیک صرف اسلام ہے اور اہلِ کتاب نے علم آنے کے بعد ہی جھگڑا شروع کیا ہے صرف آپس کی شرارتوں کی بنا پر اور جو بھی آیاتِ الٰہی کا انکار کرے گا تو خدا بہت جلد حساب کرنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] The Religion before Allah is Islam (submission to His Will): Nor did the People of the Book dissent therefrom except through envy of each other, after knowledge had come to them. But if any deny the Signs of Allah, Allah is swift in calling to account.
[ PICKTHAL ] Lo! religion with Allah (is) the Surrender (to His Will and Guidance). Those who (formerly) received the Scripture differed only after knowledge came unto them, through transgression among themselves. Whoso disbelieveth the revelations of Allah (will find that) lo! Allah is swift at reckoning.
[ SHAKIR ] Surely the (true) religion with Allah is Islam, and those to whom the Book had been given did not show opposition but after knowledge had come to them, out of envy among themselves; and whoever disbelieves in the communications of Allah then surely Allah is quick in reckoning.
- Sura: 3 - aal-`Imraan (The Family of `Imraan) Ayat: 24
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا لَنْ تَمَسَّنَا النَّارُ إِلَّا أَيَّامًا مَعْدُودَاتٍ ۖ وَغَرَّهُمْ فِي دِينِهِمْ مَا كَانُوا يَفْتَرُونَ (24
یہ اس لئے کہ ان کا عقیدہ ہے کہ انہیں آتش جہّنم صرف چند دن کے لئے چھوئے گی اور ان کو دین کے بارے میں ان کی افتراپردازیوں نے دھوکہ میں رکھا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] This because they say: "The Fire shall not touch us but for a few numbered days": For their forgeries deceive them as to their own religion.
[ PICKTHAL ] That is because they say: The Fire will not touch us save for a certain number of days. That which they used to invent hath deceived them regarding their religion.
[ SHAKIR ] This is because they say: The fire shall not touch us but for a few days; and what they have forged deceives them in the matter of their religion.

تو خدا نے اسے بہترین انداز سے قبول کرلیا اور اس کی بہترین نشوونما کا انتظام فرما دیا اور زکریا علیہ السّلام نے اس کی کفالت کی کہ جب زکریا علیہ السّلام محرابِ عبادت میں داخل ہوتے تو مریم کے پاس رزق دیکھتے اور پوچھتے کہ یہ کہاں سے آیا اور مریم جواب دیتیں کہ یہ سب خدا کی طرف ہے- وہ جسے چاہتا ہے رزق بے حساب عطا کردیتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Right graciously did her Lord accept her: He made her grow in purity and beauty: To the care of Zakariya was she assigned. Every time that he entered (Her) chamber to see her, He found her supplied with sustenance. He said: "O Mary! Whence (comes) this to you?" She said: "From Allah: for Allah Provides sustenance to whom He pleases without measure."
[ PICKTHAL ] And her Lord accepted her with full acceptance and vouchsafed to her a goodly growth; and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah went into the sanctuary where she was, he found that she had food. He said: O Mary! Whence cometh unto thee this (food)? She answered: It is from Allah. Allah giveth without stint to whom He will.
[ SHAKIR ] So her Lord accepted her with a good acceptance and made her grow up a good growing, and gave her into the charge of Zakariya; whenever Zakariya entered the sanctuary to (see) her, he found with her food. He said: O Marium! whence comes this to you? She said: It is from Allah. Surely Allah gives to whom He pleases without measure.

اہلِ کتاب میں وہ لوگ بھی ہیں جو اللہ پر اور جو کچھ تمہاری طرف نازل ہوا ہے اور جو اُن کی طرف نازل ہوا ہے سب پر ایمان رکھتے ہیں- اللہ کے سامنے سر جھکائے ہوئے ہیں- آیاتِ خدا حقیر سی قیمت پر فروخت نہیں کرتے- ان کے لئے پروردگار کے یہاں ان کا اجر ہے اور خدا بہت جلد حساب کرنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And there are, certainly, among the People of the Book, those who believe in Allah, in the revelation to you, and in the revelation to them, bowing in humility to Allah: They will not sell the Signs of Allah for a miserable gain! For them is a reward with their Lord, and Allah is swift in account.
[ PICKTHAL ] And lo! of the People of the Scripture there are some who believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto you and that which was revealed unto them, humbling themselves before Allah. They purchase not a trifling gain at the price of the revelations of Allah. Verily their reward is with their Lord. Lo! Allah is swift to take account.
[ SHAKIR ] And most surely of the followers of the Book there are those who believe in Allah and (in) that which has been revealed to you and (in) that which has been revealed to them, being lowly before Allah; they do not take a small price for the communications of Allah; these it is that have their reward with their Lord; surely Allah is quick in reckoning.

وَابْتَلُوا الْيَتَامَىٰ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا بَلَغُوا النِّكَاحَ فَإِنْ آنَسْتُمْ مِنْهُمْ رُشْدًا فَادْفَعُوا إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا تَأْكُلُوهَا إِسْرَافًا وَبِدَارًا أَنْ يَكْبَرُوا ۚ وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ ۖ وَمَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ ۚ فَإِذَا دَفَعْتُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فَأَشْهِدُوا عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ وَكَفَىٰ بِاللَّهِ حَسِيبًا (6
اور یتیموں کا امتحان لو اور جب وہ نکاح کے قابل ہوجائیں تو اگر ان میں رشید ہونے کا احساس کروتو ان کے اموال ان کے حوالے کردو اور زیادتی کے ساتھ یا اس خوف سے کہ کہیں وہ بڑے نہ ہوجائیں جلدی جلدی نہ کھاجاؤ ... اور تم میں جو غنی ہے وہ ان کے مال سے پرہیز کرے اور جو فقیر ہے وہ بھی صرف بقدر مناسب کھائے- پھر جب ان کے اموال ان کے حوالے کرو تو گواہ بنالو اور خدا تو حساب کے لئے خود ہی کافی ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; if then ye find sound judgment in them, release their property to them; but consume it not wastefully, nor in haste against their growing up. If the guardian is well-off, Let him claim no remuneration, but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable. When ye release their property to them, take witnesses in their presence: But all-sufficient is Allah in taking account.
[ PICKTHAL ] Prove orphans till they reach the marriageable age; then, if ye find them of sound judgment, deliver over unto them their fortune; and devour it not by squandering and in haste lest they should grow up Whoso (of the guardians) is rich, let him abstain generously (from taking of the property of orphans); and whoso is poor let him take thereof in reason (for his guardianship). And when ye deliver up their fortune unto orphans, have (the transaction) witnessed in their presence. Allah sufficeth as a Reckoner.
[ SHAKIR ] And test the orphans until they attain puberty; then if you find in them maturity of intellect, make over to them their property, and do not consume it extravagantly and hastily, lest they attain to full age; and whoever is rich, let him abstain altogether, and whoever is poor, let him eat reasonably; then when you make over to them their property, call witnesses in their presence; and Allah is enough as a Reckoner.

[YOUSAF ALI] From what is left by parents and those nearest related there is a share for men and a share for women, whether the property be small or large,-a determinate share.
[ PICKTHAL ] Unto the men (of a family) belongeth a share of that which parents and near kindred leave, and unto the women a share of that which parents and near kindred leave, whether it be little or much - a legal share.
[ SHAKIR ] Men shall have a portion of what the parents and the near relatives leave, and women shall have a portion of what the parents and the near relatives leave, whether there is little or much of it; a stated portion.

اللہ تمہاری اولاد کے بارے میں تمہیں ہدایت فرماتا ہے، ایک لڑکے کا حصہ دو لڑکیوں کے حصے کے برابر ہے، پس اگر لڑکیاں دو سے زائد ہوں تو ترکے کا دو تہائی ان کا حق ہے اور اگر صرف ایک لڑکی ہے تو نصف (ترکہ) اس کا ہے اور میت کی اولاد ہونے کی صورت میں والدین میں سے ہر ایک کو ترکے کا چھٹا حصہ ملے گا اور اگر میت کی اولاد نہ ہو بلکہ صرف ماں باپ اس کے وارث ہوں تواس کی ماں کو تیسرا حصہ ملے گا، پس اگر میت کے بھائی ہوں تو ماں کو چھٹا حصہ ملے گا، یہ تقسیم میت کی وصیت پر عمل کرنے اور اس کے قرض کی ادائیگی کے بعد ہو گی، تمہیں نہیں معلوم تمہارے والدین اور تمہاری اولاد میں فائدے کے حوالے سے کون تمہارے زیادہ قریب ہے، یہ حصے اللہ کے مقرر کردہ ہیں، یقینا اللہ بڑا جاننے والا، باحکمت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Allah (thus) directs you as regards your Children's (Inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two females: if only daughters, two or more, their share is two-thirds of the inheritance; if only one, her share is a half. For parents, a sixth share of the inheritance to each, if the deceased left children; if no children, and the parents are the (only) heirs, the mother has a third; if the deceased Left brothers (or sisters) the mother has a sixth.

اور تمہیں اپنی بیویوں کے ترکے میں سے اگر ان کی اولاد نہ ہو نصف حصہ ملے گا اور اگر ان کی اولاد ہو تو ان کے ترکے میں سے چوتھائی تمہارا ہو گا، یہ تقسیم میت کی وصیت پر عمل کرنے اور قرض ادا کرنے کے بعد ہو گی اور تمہاری اولاد نہ ہو تو انہیں تمہارے ترکے میں سے چوتھائی ملے گا اور اگر تمہاری اولاد ہو تو انہیں تمہارے ترکے میں سے آٹھواں حصہ ملے گا، یہ تقسیم تمہاری وصیت پر عمل کرنے اور قرض ادا کرنے کے بعد ہو گی اور اگر کوئی مرد یا عورت بے اولاد ہو اور والدین بھی زندہ نہ ہوں اور اس کا ایک بھائی یا ایک بہن ہو تو بھائی اور بہن میں سے ہر ایک کو چھٹا حصہ ملے گا، پس اگر بہن بھائی ایک سے زیادہ ہوں تو سب ایک تہائی حصے میں شریک ہوں گے، یہ تقسیم وصیت پرعمل کرنے اور قرض ادا کرنے کے بعد ہو گی، بشرطیکہ ضرر رساں نہ ہو، یہ نصیحت اللہ کی طرف سے ہے اور اللہ بڑا دانا، بردبار ہے

And unto them belongeth the fourth of that which ye leave if ye have no child, but if ye have a child then the eighth of that which ye leave, after any legacy ye may have bequeathed, or debt (ye may have contracted, hath been paid). And if a man or a woman have a distant heir (having left neither parent nor child), and he (or she) have a brother or a sister (only on the mother's side) then to each of them twain (the brother and the sister) the sixth, and if they be more than two, then they shall be sharers in the third, after any legacy that may have been bequeathed or debt (contracted) not injuring (the heirs by willing away more than a third of the heritage) hath been paid. A commandment from Allah. Allah is Knower, Indulgent.

اس کے بعد جب یہ نماز تمام ہوجائے تو کھڑے, بیٹھے, لیٹے ہمیشہ خدا کو یاد کرتے رہو اور جب اطمینان حاصل ہوجائے تو باقاعدہ نماز قائم کرو کہ نماز صاحبانِ ایمان کے لئے ایک وقت معین کے ساتھ فریضہ ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] When ye pass (Congregational) prayers, celebrate Allah's praises, standing, sitting down, or lying down on your sides; but when ye are free from danger, set up Regular Prayers: For such prayers are enjoined on believers at stated times.
[ PICKTHAL ] When ye have performed the act of worship, remember Allah, standing, sitting and reclining. And when ye are in safety, observe proper worship. Worship at fixed times hath been enjoined on the believers.
[ SHAKIR ] Then when you have finished the prayer, remember Allah standing and sitting and reclining; but when you are secure (from danger) keep up prayer; surely prayer is a timed ordinance for the believers.

[YOUSAF ALI] One day will Allah gather the messengers together, and ask: "What was the response ye received (from men to your teaching)?" They will say: "We have no knowledge: it is Thou Who knowest in full all that is hidden."
[ PICKTHAL ] In the day when Allah gathereth together the messengers, and saith: What was your response (from mankind)? they say: We have no knowledge. Lo! Thou, only Thou art the Knower of Things Hidden,
[ SHAKIR ] On the day when Allah will assemble the messengers, then say: What answer were you given? They shall say: We have no knowledge, surely Thou art the great Knower of the unseen things.

إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ اذْكُرْ نِعْمَتِي عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ وَالِدَتِكَ إِذْ أَيَّدْتُكَ بِرُوحِ الْقُدُسِ تُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فِي الْمَهْدِ وَكَهْلًا ۖ وَإِذْ عَلَّمْتُكَ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَالتَّوْرَاةَ وَالْإِنْجِيلَ ۖ وَإِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ بِإِذْنِي فَتَنْفُخُ فِيهَا فَتَكُونُ طَيْرًا بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَتُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَإِذْ تُخْرِجُ الْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِي ۖ وَإِذْ كَفَفْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْكَ إِذْ جِئْتَهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْهُمْ إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ (110
"اور جب اللہ نے کہا کہ اے عیسٰی بن مریم کیا تم نے لوگوں سے یہ کہہ دیا ہے کہ اللہ کو چھوڑ کو مجھے اور میری ماں کو خدا مان لو .... تو عیسٰی نے عرض کی کہ تیری ذات بے نیاز ہے میں ایسی بات کیسے کہوں گا جس کا مجھے کوئی حق نہیں ہے اور اگر میں نے کہا تھا تو تجھے تو معلوم ہی ہے کہ تو میرے دل کا حال جانتا ہے اور میں تیرے اسرار نہیں جانتا ہوں -تو ,تو غیب کا جاننے والا بھی ہے"
[YOUSAF ALI] Then will Allah say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Recount My favour to thee and to thy mother. Behold! I strengthened thee with the holy spirit, so that thou didst speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. Behold! I taught thee the Book and Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel and behold! thou makest out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, by My leave, and thou breathest into it and it becometh a bird by My leave, and thou healest those born blind, and the lepers, by My leave. And behold! thou bringest forth the dead by My leave. And behold! I did restrain the Children of Israel from (violence to) thee when thou didst show them the clear Signs, and the unbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic.'
[ PICKTHAL ] When Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My favour unto thee and unto thy mother; how I strengthened thee with the holy Spirit, so that thou spakest unto mankind in the cradle as in maturity; and how I taught thee the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and how thou didst shape of clay as it were the likeness of a bird by My permission, and didst blow upon it and it was a bird by My permission, and thou didst heal him who was born blind and the leper by My permission; and how thou didst raise the dead by My permission; and how I restrained the Children of Israel from (harming) thee when thou camest unto them with clear proofs, and those of them who disbelieved exclaimed: This is naught else than mere magic;
[ SHAKIR ] When Allah will say: O Isa son of Marium! Remember My favor on you and on your mother, when I strengthened you I with the holy Spirit, you spoke to the people in the cradle and I when of old age, and when I taught you the Book and the wisdom and the Taurat and the Injeel; and when you determined out of clay a thing like the form of a bird by My permission, then you breathed into it and it became a bird by My permission, and you healed the blind and the leprous by My permission; and when you brought forth the dead by My permission; and when I withheld the children of Israel from you when you came to them with clear arguments, but those who disbelieved among them said: This is nothing but clear enchantment.
- Sura: 6 - al-An`aam (The Cattle) Ayat: 96
فَالِقُ الْإِصْبَاحِ وَجَعَلَ اللَّيْلَ سَكَنًا وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ حُسْبَانًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ (96
وہ نور سحر کا شگافتہ کرنے والا ہے اور اس نے رات کو وجہ سکون اور شمس و قمر کو ذریعہ حساب بنایا ہے . یہ اس صاحب هعزّت و حکمت کی مقرر کردہ تقدیر ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] He it is that cleaveth the day-break (from the dark): He makes the night for rest and tranquillity, and the sun and moon for the reckoning (of time): Such is the judgment and ordering of (Him), the Exalted in Power, the Omniscient.
[ PICKTHAL ] He is the Cleaver of the Daybreak, and He hath appointed the night for stillness, and the sun and the moon for reckoning. That is the measuring of the Mighty, the Wise.
[ SHAKIR ] He causes the dawn to break; and He has made the night for rest, and the sun and the moon for reckoning; this is an arrangement of the Mighty, the Knowing.
- Sura: 6 - al-An`aam (The Cattle) Ayat: 152
وَلَا تَقْرَبُوا مَالَ الْيَتِيمِ إِلَّا بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ حَتَّىٰ يَبْلُغَ أَشُدَّهُ ۖ وَأَوْفُوا الْكَيْلَ وَالْمِيزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِ ۖ لَا نُكَلِّفُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا ۖ وَإِذَا قُلْتُمْ فَاعْدِلُوا وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبَىٰ ۖ وَبِعَهْدِ اللَّهِ أَوْفُوا ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ وَصَّاكُمْ بِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ (152
اور خبردار مال هیتیم کے قریب بھی نہ جانا مگر اس طریقہ سے جو بہترین طریقہ ہو یہاں تک کہ وہ توانائی کی عمر تک پہنچ جائیں اور ناپ تول میں انصاف سے پورا پورا دینا -ہم کسی نفس کو اس کی وسعت سے زیادہ تکلیف نہیں دیتے ہیں اور جب بات کرو تو انصاف کے ساتھ چاہے اپنی اقرباہی کے خلاف کیوں نہ ہو اور عہد خدا کو پورا کرو کہ اس کی پروردگار نے تمہیں وصیت کی ہے کہ شاید تم عبرت حاصل کرسکو
[YOUSAF ALI] And come not nigh to the orphan's property, except to improve it, until he attain the age of full strength; give measure and weight with (full) justice;- no burden do We place on any soul, but that which it can bear;- whenever ye speak, speak justly, even if a near relative is concerned; and fulfil the covenant of Allah: thus doth He command you, that ye may remember.
[ PICKTHAL ] And approach not the wealth of the orphan save with that which is better, till he reach maturity. Give full measure and full weight, in justice. We task not any soul beyond its scope. And if ye give your word, do justice thereunto, even though it be (against) a kinsman; and fulfil the covenant of Allah. This He commandeth you that haply ye may remember.
[ SHAKIR ] And do not approach the property of the orphan except in the best manner until he attains his maturity, and give full measure and weight with justice-- We do not impose on any soul a duty except to the extent of its ability; and when you speak, then be just though it be (against) a relative, and fulfill Allah's covenant; this He has enjoined you with that you may be mindful;

(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:
- Sura: 9 - at-Tawba (The Repentance) Ayat: 36
إِنَّ عِدَّةَ الشُّهُورِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ مِنْهَا أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ ۚ فَلَا تَظْلِمُوا فِيهِنَّ أَنْفُسَكُمْ ۚ وَقَاتِلُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَافَّةً كَمَا يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ كَافَّةً ۚ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الْمُتَّقِينَ (36
بیشک مہینوں کی تعداد اللہ کے نزدیک کتابِ خدا میں اس دن سے بارہ ہے جس دن اس نے آسمانوں اور زمین کو پیدا کیا ہے -ان میں سے چار مہینے محترم ہیں اور یہی سیدھا اور مستحکم دین ہے لہٰذا خبردار ان مہینوں میں اپنے اوپر ظلم نہ کرنا اور تمام مشرکین سے اسی طرح جہاد کرنا جس طرح وہ تم سے جنگ کرتے ہیں اور یہ یاد رکھنا کہ خدا صرف متقی اور پرہیزگار لوگوں کے ساتھ ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] The number of months in the sight of Allah is twelve (in a year)- so ordained by Him the day He created the heavens and the earth; of them four are sacred: that is the straight usage. So wrong not yourselves therein, and fight the Pagans all together as they fight you all together. But know that Allah is with those who restrain themselves.
[ PICKTHAL ] Lo! the number of the months with Allah is twelve months by Allah's ordinance in the day that He created the heavens and the earth. Four of them are sacred: that is the right religion. So wrong not yourselves in them. And wage war on all of the idolaters as they are waging war on all of you. And know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him).
[ SHAKIR ] Surely the number of months with Allah is twelve months in Allah's ordinance since the day when He created the heavens and the earth, of these four being sacred; that is the right reckoning; therefore be not unjust to yourselves regarding them, and fight the polytheists all together as they fight you all together; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).
- Sura: 9 - at-Tawba (The Repentance) Ayat: 37
إِنَّمَا النَّسِيءُ زِيَادَةٌ فِي الْكُفْرِ ۖ يُضَلُّ بِهِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُحِلُّونَهُ عَامًا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُ عَامًا لِيُوَاطِئُوا عِدَّةَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ فَيُحِلُّوا مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ ۚ زُيِّنَ لَهُمْ سُوءُ أَعْمَالِهِمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ (37
محترم مہینوں میں تقدیم و تاخیر کفر میں ایک قسم کی زیادتی ہے جس کے ذریعہ کفاّر کو گمراہ کیا جاتا ہے کہ وہ ایک سال اسے حلال بنالیتے ہیں اور دوسرے سال حرام کردیتے ہیں تاکہ اتنی تعداد برابر ہوجائے جتنی خدا نے حرام کی ہے اور حرام هخدا حلال بھی ہوجائے -ان کے بدترین اعمال کو ان کی نگاہ میں آراستہ کردیا گیا ہے اور اللہ کافر قوم کی ہدایت نہیں کرتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Verily the transposing (of a prohibited month) is an addition to Unbelief: the Unbelievers are led to wrong thereby: for they make it lawful one year, and forbidden another year, in order to adjust the number of months forbidden by Allah and make such forbidden ones lawful. The evil of their course seems pleasing to them. But Allah guideth not those who reject Faith.
[ PICKTHAL ] Postponement (of a sacred month) is only an excess of disbelief whereby those who disbelieve are misled; they allow it one year and forbid it (another) year, that they may make up the number of the months which Allah hath hallowed, so that they allow that which Allah hath forbidden. The evil of their deeds is made fairseeming unto them. Allah guideth not the disbelieving folk.
[ SHAKIR ] Postponing (of the sacred month) is only an addition in unbelief, wherewith those who disbelieve are led astray, violating it one year and keeping it sacred another, that they may agree in the number (of months) that Allah has made sacred, and thus violate what Allah has made sacred; the evil of their doings is made fairseeming to them; and Allah does not guide the unbelieving people.
- Sura: 9 - at-Tawba (The Repentance) Ayat: 103
خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِمْ بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ إِنَّ صَلَاتَكَ سَكَنٌ لَهُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ (103
پیغمبر آپ ان کے اموال میں سے زکوِٰلے لیجئے کہ اس کے ذریعہ یہ پاک و پاکیزہ ہوجائیں اور انہیں دعائیں دیجئے کہ آپ کی دعا ان کے لئے تسکین قلب کا باعث ہوگی اور خدا سب کا سننے والا اور جاننے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Of their goods, take alms, that so thou mightest purify and sanctify them; and pray on their behalf. Verily thy prayers are a source of security for them: And Allah is One Who heareth and knoweth.
[ PICKTHAL ] Take alms of their wealth, wherewith thou mayst purify them and mayst make them grow, and pray for them. Lo! thy prayer is an assuagement for them. Allah is Hearer, Knower.
[ SHAKIR ] Take alms out of their property, you would cleanse them and purify them thereby, and pray for them; surely your prayer is a relief to them; and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.
- Sura: 10 - Yunus (Jonas) Ayat: 5
هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ ضِيَاءً وَالْقَمَرَ نُورًا وَقَدَّرَهُ مَنَازِلَ لِتَعْلَمُوا عَدَدَ السِّنِينَ وَالْحِسَابَ ۚ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ ذَٰلِكَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ۚ يُفَصِّلُ الْآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ (5
اسی خدا نے آفتاب کو روشنی اورچاند کو نور بنایا ہے پھر چاند کی منزلیں مقرر کی ہیں تاکہ ان کے ذریعہ برسوں کی تعداد اور دوسرے حسابات دریافت کرسکو -یہ سب خدا نے صرف حق کے ساتھ پیدا کیا ہے کہ وہ صاحبان هعلم کے لئے اپنی آیتوں کو تفصیل کے ساتھ بیان کرتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] It is He Who made the sun to be a shining glory and the moon to be a light (of beauty), and measured out stages for her; that ye might know the number of years and the count (of time). Nowise did Allah create this but in truth and righteousness. (Thus) doth He explain His Signs in detail, for those who understand.
[ PICKTHAL ] He it is Who appointed the sun a splendour and the moon a light, and measured for her stages, that ye might know the number of the years, and the reckoning. Allah created not (all) that save in truth. He detaileth the revelations for people who have knowledge.
[ SHAKIR ] He it is Who made the sun a shining brightness and the moon a light, and ordained for it mansions that you might know the computation of years and the reckoning. Allah did not create it but with truth; He makes the signs manifest for a people who
- Sura: 10 - Yunus (Jonas) Ayat: 61
وَمَا تَكُونُ فِي شَأْنٍ وَمَا تَتْلُو مِنْهُ مِنْ قُرْآنٍ وَلَا تَعْمَلُونَ مِنْ عَمَلٍ إِلَّا كُنَّا عَلَيْكُمْ شُهُودًا إِذْ تُفِيضُونَ فِيهِ ۚ وَمَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْ رَبِّكَ مِنْ مِثْقَالِ ذَرَّةٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فِي السَّمَاءِ وَلَا أَصْغَرَ مِنْ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَا أَكْبَرَ إِلَّا فِي كِتَابٍ مُبِينٍ (61
اور پیغمبر آپ کسی حال میں رہیں اور قرآن کے کسی حصہ کی تلاوت کریں اور اے لوگوں تم کوئی عمل کرو ہم تم سب کے گواہ ہوتے ہیں جب بھی کوئی عمل کرتے ہو اور تمہارے پروردگار سے زمین و آسمان کا کوئی ذرّہ دور نہیں ہے اور کوئی شے ذرّہ سے بڑی یا چھوٹی ایسی نہیں ہے جسے ہم نے اپنی کھلی کتاب میں جمع نہ کردیا ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] In whatever business thou mayest be, and whatever portion thou mayest be reciting from the Qur'an,- and whatever deed ye (mankind) may be doing,- We are witnesses thereof when ye are deeply engrossed therein. Nor is hidden from thy Lord (so much as) the weight of an atom on the earth or in heaven. And not the least and not the greatest of these things but are recorded in a clear record.
[ PICKTHAL ] And thou (Muhammad) art not occupied with any business and thou recitest not a Lecture from this (Scripture), and ye (mankind) perform no act, but We are Witness of you when ye are engaged therein. And not an atom's weight in the earth or in the sky escapeth your Lord, nor what is less than that or greater than that, but it is (written) in a clear Book.
[ SHAKIR ] And you are not (engaged) in any affair, nor do you recite concerning it any portion of the Quran, nor do you do any work but We are witnesses over you when you enter into it, and there does not lie concealed from your Lord the weight of an atom in the earth or in the heaven, nor any thing less than that nor greater, but it is in a clear book.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 8
وَلَئِنْ أَخَّرْنَا عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابَ إِلَىٰ أُمَّةٍ مَعْدُودَةٍ لَيَقُولُنَّ مَا يَحْبِسُهُ ۗ أَلَا يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمْ لَيْسَ مَصْرُوفًا عَنْهُمْ وَحَاقَ بِهِمْ مَا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ (8
اور اگر ہم ان کے عذاب کو ایک معینہ مدّت کے لئے ٹال دیں تو طنز کریں گے کہ عذاب کو کس چیز نے روک لیا ہے -آگاہ ہوجاؤ کہ جس دن عذاب آجائے گا تو پھر پلٹنے والا نہیں ہے اور پھر وہ عذاب ان کو ہر طرف سے گھیر لے گا جس کا یہ مذاق اڑا رہے تھے
[YOUSAF ALI] If We delay the penalty for them for a definite term, they are sure to say, "What keeps it back?" Ah! On the day it (actually) reaches them, nothing will turn it away from them, and they will be completely encircled by that which they used to mock at!
[ PICKTHAL ] And if We delay for them the doom until a reckoned time, they will surely say: What withholdeth it? Verily on the day when it cometh unto them, it cannot be averted from them, and that which they derided will surround them.
[ SHAKIR ] And if We hold back from them the punishment until a stated period of time, they will certainly say: What prevents it? Now surely on the day when it will come to them, it shall not be averted from them and that which they scoffed at shall beset them.
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 85
وَيَا قَوْمِ أَوْفُوا الْمِكْيَالَ وَالْمِيزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِ ۖ وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا النَّاسَ أَشْيَاءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِي الْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ (85
اے قوم ناپ تول میں انصاف سے کام لو اور لوگوں کو کم چیزیں مت دو اور روئے زمین میں فساد مت پھیلاتے پھرو
[YOUSAF ALI] "And O my people! give just measure and weight, nor withhold from the people the things that are their due: commit not evil in the land with intent to do mischief.
[ PICKTHAL ] O my people! Give full measure and full weight in justice, and wrong not people in respect of their goods. And do not evil in the earth, causing corruption.
[ SHAKIR ] And, O my people! give full measure and weight fairly, and defraud not men their things, and do not act corruptly in the land, making mischief:
- Sura: 11 - Hud (Hud) Ayat: 104
وَمَا نُؤَخِّرُهُ إِلَّا لِأَجَلٍ مَعْدُودٍ (104
اور ہم اپنے عذاب کو صرف ایک معینہ مدّت کے لئے ٹال رہے ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] Nor shall We delay it but for a term appointed.
[ PICKTHAL ] And We defer it only to a term already reckoned.
[ SHAKIR ] And We do not delay it but to an appointed term.
- Sura: 12 - Yusuf (Joseph) Ayat: 20

اور ان لوگوں نے یوسف کو معمولی قیمت پر بیچ ڈالا چند درہم کے عوض اور وہ لوگ تو ان سے بیزار تھے ہی
[YOUSAF ALI] The (Brethren) sold him for a miserable price, for a few dirhams counted out: in such low estimation did they hold him!
[ PICKTHAL ] And they sold him for a low price, a number of silver coins; and they attached no value to him.
[ SHAKIR ] And they sold him for a small price, a few pieces of silver, and they showed no desire for him.
- Sura: 12 - Yusuf (Joseph) Ayat: 43

اور پھر ایک دن بادشاہ نے لوگوں سے کہا کہ میں نے خواب میں سات موٹی گائیں دیکھی ہیں جنہیں سات پتلی گائیں کھائے جارہی ہیں اور سات ہری تازی بالیاں دیکھی ہیں اور سات خشک بالیاں دیکھی ہیں تم سب میرے خواب کے بارے میں رائے دو اگر تمہیں خواب کی تعمبیر دینا آتا ہو تو
[YOUSAF ALI] The king (of Egypt) said: "I do see (in a vision) seven fat kine, whom seven lean ones devour, and seven green ears of corn, and seven (others) withered. O ye chiefs! Expound to me my vision if it be that ye can interpret visions."
[ PICKTHAL ] And the king said: Lo! I saw in a dream seven fat kine which seven lean were eating, and seven green ears of corn and other (seven) dry. O notables! Expound for me my vision, if ye can interpret dreams.
[ SHAKIR ] And the king said: Surely I see seven fat kine which seven lean ones devoured; and seven green ears and (seven) others dry: O chiefs! explain to me my dream, if you can interpret the dream.
- Sura: 13 - ar-Ra`ad (The Thunder) Ayat: 18
لِلَّذِينَ اسْتَجَابُوا لِرَبِّهِمُ الْحُسْنَىٰ ۚ وَالَّذِينَ لَمْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا لَهُ لَوْ أَنَّ لَهُمْ مَا فِي الْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا وَمِثْلَهُ مَعَهُ لَافْتَدَوْا بِهِ ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ لَهُمْ سُوءُ الْحِسَابِ وَمَأْوَاهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَبِئْسَ الْمِهَادُ (18
جو لوگ پروردگار کی بات کو قبول کرلیتے ہیں ان کے لئے نیکی ہے اور جو اس کی بات کو قبول نہیں کرتے انہیں زمین کے سارے خزانے بھی مل جائیں اور اسی قدر اور بھی مل جائے تو یہ بطور فدیہ دے دیں گے لیکن ان کے لئے بدترین حساب ہے اور ان کا ٹھکانا جہّنم ہے اور وہ بہت بفِا ٹھکانا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] For those who respond to their Lord, are (all) good things. But those who respond not to Him,- Even if they had all that is in the heavens and on earth, and as much more, (in vain) would they offer it for ransom. For them will the reckoning be terrible: their abode will be Hell,- what a bed of misery!
[ PICKTHAL ] For those who answered Allah's call is bliss; and for those who answered not His call, if they had all that is in the earth, and therewith the like thereof, they would proffer it as ransom. Such will have a woeful reckoning, and their habitation will be hell, a dire abode.
[ SHAKIR ] For those who respond to their Lord is good; and (as for) those who do not respond to Him, had they all that is in the earth and the like thereof with it they would certainly offer it for a ransom. (As for) those, an evil reckoning shall be theirs and their abode is hell, and evil is the resting-place.

وَجَعَلْنَا اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ آيَتَيْنِ ۖ فَمَحَوْنَا آيَةَ اللَّيْلِ وَجَعَلْنَا آيَةَ النَّهَارِ مُبْصِرَةً لِتَبْتَغُوا فَضْلًا مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَلِتَعْلَمُوا عَدَدَ السِّنِينَ وَالْحِسَابَ ۚ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ فَصَّلْنَاهُ تَفْصِيلًا (12
اور ہم نے رات اور دن کو اپنی نشانی قرار دیا ہے پھر ہم رات کی نشانی کو مٹا دیتے ہیں اور دن کی نشانی کو روشن کردیتے ہیں تاکہ تم اپنے پروردگار کے فضل و انعام کو طلب کرسکو اور سال اور حساب کے اعداد معلوم کرسکو اور ہم نے ہر شے کو تفصیل کے ساتھ بیان کردیا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] We have made the Night and the Day as two (of Our) Signs: the Sign of the Night have We obscured, while the Sign of the Day We have made to enlighten you; that ye may seek bounty from your Lord, and that ye may know the number and count of the years: all things have We explained in detail.
[ PICKTHAL ] And We appoint the night and the day two portents. Then We make dark the portent of the night, and We make the portent of the day sight-giving, that ye may seek bounty from your Lord, and that ye may know the computation of the years, and the reckoning; and everything have We expounded with a clear expounding.
[ SHAKIR ] And We have made the night and the day two signs, then We have made the sign of the night to pass away and We have made the sign of the day manifest, so that you may seek grace from your Lord, and that you might know the numbering of years and the reckoning; and We have explained everything with distinctness.
- Sura: 17 - al-Israa' (The Night Journey) Ayat: 79

اور رات کے ایک حصہ میں قرآن کے ساتھ بیدار رہیں یہ آپ کے لئے اضافہ خیر ہے عنقریب آپ کا پروردگار اسی طرح آپ کو مقام محمود تک پہنچادے گا
[YOUSAF ALI] And pray in the small watches of the morning: (it would be) an additional prayer (or spiritual profit) for thee: soon will thy Lord raise thee to a Station of Praise and Glory!
[ PICKTHAL ] And some part of the night awake for it, a largess for thee. It may be that thy Lord will raise thee to a praised estate.
[ SHAKIR ] And during a part of the night, pray Tahajjud beyond what is incumbent on you; maybe your Lord will raise you to a position of great glory.

[YOUSAF ALI] So make no haste against them, for We but count out to them a (limited) number (of days).

[YOUSAF ALI] Therefore be patient with what they say, and celebrate (constantly) the praises of thy Lord, before the rising of the sun, and before its setting; yea, celebrate them for part of the hours of the night, and at the sides of the day: that thou mayest have (spiritual) joy.
[ PICKTHAL ] Therefor (O Muhammad), bear with what they say, and celebrate the praise of thy Lord ere the rising of the sun and ere the going down thereof. And glorify Him some hours of the night and at the two ends of the day, that thou mayst find acceptance.

[YOUSAF ALI] We shall set up scales of justice for the Day of Judgment, so that not a soul will be dealt with unjustly in the least, and if there be (no more than) the weight of a mustard seed, We will bring it (to account): and enough are We to take account.
[ PICKTHAL ] And We set a just balance for the Day of Resurrection so that no soul is wronged in aught. Though it be of the weight of a grain of mustard seed, We bring it. And We suffice for reckoners.

[YOUSAF ALI] And for those who launch a charge against their spouses, and have (in support) no evidence but their own,- their solitary evidence (can be received) if they bear witness four times (with an oath) by Allah that they are solemnly telling the truth;
[ PICKTHAL ] As for those who accuse their wives but have no witnesses except themselves; let the testimony of one of them be four testimonies, (swearing) by Allah that he is of those who speak the truth;
[ SHAKIR ] And (as for) those who accuse their wives and have no witnesses except themselves, the evidence of one of these (should be taken) four times, bearing Allah to witness that he is most surely of the truthful ones.

پھر عورت سے بھی حد برطرف ہوسکتی ہے اگر وہ چار مرتبہ قسم کھاکر یہ کہے کہ یہ مرد جھوٹوں میں سے ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] But it would avert the punishment from the wife, if she bears witness four times (with an oath) By Allah, that (her husband) is telling a lie;
[ PICKTHAL ] And it shall avert the punishment from her if she bear witness before Allah four times that the thing he saith is indeed false,
[ SHAKIR ] And it shall avert the chastisement from her if she testify four times, bearing Allah to witness that he is most surely one of the liars;

پھر ایسا کیوں نہ ہوا کہ یہ چار گواہ بھی لے آتے اور جب گواہ نہیں لے آئے تو یہ اللہ کے نزدیک بالکل جھوٹے ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] Why did they not bring four witnesses to prove it? When they have not brought the witnesses, such men, in the sight of Allah, (stand forth) themselves as liars!
[ PICKTHAL ] Why did they not produce four witnesses? Since they produce not witnesses, they verily are liars in the sight of Allah.
[ SHAKIR ] Why did they not bring four witnesses of it? But as they have not brought witnesses they are liars before Allah.

[YOUSAF ALI] And if all the trees on earth were pens and the ocean (were ink), with seven oceans behind it to add to its (supply), yet would not the words of Allah be exhausted (in the writing): for Allah is Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.
[ PICKTHAL ] And if all the trees in the earth were pens, and the sea, with seven more seas to help it, (were ink), the words of Allah could not be exhausted. Lo! Allah is Mighty, Wise.

وہ لوگ ا للہ کے پیغام کو پہنچاتے ہیں اور دل میں اس کا خوف رکھتے ہیں اور اس کے علاوہ کسی سے نہیں ڈرتے ہیںاوراللہ حساب کرنے کے لئے کافی ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] (It is the practice of those) who preach the Messages of Allah, and fear Him, and fear none but Allah. And enough is Allah to call (men) to account.
[ PICKTHAL ] Who delivered the messages of Allah and feared Him, and feared none save Allah. Allah keepeth good account.
[ SHAKIR ] Those who deliver the messages of Allah and fear Him, and do not fear any one but Allah; and Allah is sufficient to take account.
- Sura: 33 - al-Ahzaab (The Clans) Ayat: 49
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا نَكَحْتُمُ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ طَلَّقْتُمُوهُنَّ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَمَسُّوهُنَّ فَمَا لَكُمْ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ عِدَّةٍ تَعْتَدُّونَهَا ۖ فَمَتِّعُوهُنَّ وَسَرِّحُوهُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلًا (49
ایمان والو جب مومنات سے نکاح کرنا اور ان کو ہاتھ لگائے بغیر طلاق دے دینا تو تمہارے لئے کوئی حق نہیں ہے کہ ان سے و عدہ کا مطالبہ کرو لہٰذا کچھ عطیہ دے کر خوبصورتی کے ساتھ رخصت کردینا
[YOUSAF ALI] O ye who believe! When ye marry believing women, and then divorce them before ye have touched them, no period of 'Iddat have ye to count in respect of them: so give them a present. And set them free in a handsome manner.
[ PICKTHAL ] O ye who believe! If ye wed believing women and divorce them before ye have touched them, then there is no period that ye should reckon. But content them and release them handsomely.
[ SHAKIR ] O you who believe! when you marry the believing women, then divorce them before you touch them, you have in their case no term which you should reckon; so make some provision for them and send them forth a goodly sending forth.
- Sura: 34 - Saba (Sheba) Ayat: 3
وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَا تَأْتِينَا السَّاعَةُ ۖ قُلْ بَلَىٰ وَرَبِّي لَتَأْتِيَنَّكُمْ عَالِمِ الْغَيْبِ ۖ لَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْهُ مِثْقَالُ ذَرَّةٍ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَلَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا أَصْغَرُ مِنْ ذَٰلِكَ وَلَا أَكْبَرُ إِلَّا فِي كِتَابٍ مُبِينٍ (3
اور کفّار کہتے ہیں کہ قیامت آنے والی نہیں ہے تو آپ کہہ دیجئے کہ میرے پروردگار کی قسم وہ ضرور آئے گی وہ عالم الغیب ہے اس کے علم سے آسمان و زمین کا کوئی ذرّہ دور نہیں ہے اور نہ اس سے چھوٹا اور نہ بڑا بلکہ سب کچھ اس کی روشن کتاب میں محفوظ ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] The Unbelievers say, "Never to us will come the Hour": Say, "Nay! but most surely, by my Lord, it will come upon you;- by Him Who knows the unseen,- from Whom is not hidden the least little atom in the heavens or on earth: Nor is there anything less than that, or greater, but is in the Record Perspicuous:
[ PICKTHAL ] Those who disbelieve say: The Hour will never come unto us. Say: Nay, by my Lord, but it is coming unto you surely. (He is) the Knower of the Unseen. Not an atom's weight, or less than that or greater, escapeth Him in the heavens or in the earth, but it is in a clear Record,
[ SHAKIR ] And those who disbelieve say: The hour shall not come upon us. Say: Yea! by my Lord, the Knower of the unseen, it shall certainly come upon you; not the weight of an atom becomes absent from Him, in the heavens or in the earth, and neither less than that nor greater, but (all) is in a clear book

(26
اے داؤد علیہ السّلام ہم نے تم کو زمین میں اپنا جانشین بنایا ہے لہٰذا تم لوگوں کے درمیان حق کے ساتھ فیصلہ کرو اور خواہشات کا اتباع نہ کرو کہ وہ راہِ خدا سے منحرف کردیں بیشک جو لوگ راہِ خدا سے بھٹک جاتے ہیں ان کے لئے شدید عذاب ہے کہ انہوں نے روزِ حساب کو یکسر نظرانداز کردیا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] O David! We did indeed make thee a vicegerent on earth: so judge thou between men in truth (and justice): Nor follow thou the lusts (of thy heart), for they will mislead thee from the Path of Allah: for those who wander astray from the Path of Allah, is a Penalty Grievous, for that they forget the Day of Account.
[ PICKTHAL ] (And it was said unto him): O David! Lo! We have set thee as a viceroy in the earth; therefor judge aright between mankind, and follow not desire that it beguile thee from the way of Allah. Lo! those who wander from the way of Allah have an awful doom, forasmuch as they forgot the Day of Reckoning.
[ SHAKIR ] o Dawood ! surely We have made you a ruler in the land; so judge between men with justice and do not follow desire, lest it should lead you astray from the path of Allah; (as for) those who go astray from the path of Allah, they shall surely have a severe punishment because they forgot the day of reckoning.
- Sura: 38 - Saad (The letter 'saad') Ayat: 53
هَٰذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِيَوْمِ الْحِسَابِ (53
یہ وہ چیزیں ہیں جن کا روز قیامت کے لئے تم سے وعدہ کیا گیا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Such is the Promise made, to you for the Day of Account!
[ PICKTHAL ] This it is that ye are promised for the Day of Reckoning.
[ SHAKIR ] This is what you are promised for the day of reckoning.
- Sura: 40 - al-Ghaafir (The Forgiver) Ayat: 17
الْيَوْمَ تُجْزَىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ ۚ لَا ظُلْمَ الْيَوْمَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ (17
آج ہرنفس کو اس کے کئے کا بدلہ دیا جائے گا اور آج کسی طرح کا ظلم نہ ہوسکے گا بیشک اللہ بہت جلد حساب کرنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] That Day will every soul be requited for what it earned; no injustice will there be that Day, for Allah is Swift in taking account.
[ PICKTHAL ] This day is each soul requited that which it hath earned; no wrong (is done) this day. Lo! Allah is swift at reckoning.
[ SHAKIR ] This day every soul shall be rewarded for what it has earned; no injustice (shall be done) this day; surely Allah is quick in reckoning.

(27
اور موسٰی علیہ السّلام نے کہا کہ میں اپنے اور تمہارے پروردگار کی پناہ حاصل کررہا ہوں ہر اس متکبر کے مقابلہ میں جس کا روز حساب پر ایمان نہیں ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Moses said: "I have indeed called upon my Lord and your Lord (for protection) from every arrogant one who believes not in the Day of Account!"
[ PICKTHAL ] Moses said: Lo! I seek refuge in my Lord and your Lord from every scorner who believeth not in a Day of Reckoning.
[ SHAKIR ] And Musa said: Surely I take refuge with my Lord and-- your Lord from every proud one who does not believe in the day of reckoning.
- Sura: 42 - ash-Shura (Consultation) Ayat: 17
اللَّهُ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ الْكِتَابَ بِالْحَقِّ وَالْمِيزَانَ ۗ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ لَعَلَّ السَّاعَةَ قَرِيبٌ (17
اللہ ہی وہ ہے جس نے حق کے ساتھ کتاب اور میزان کو نازل کیا ہے اور آپ کو کیا معلوم کہ شاید قیامت قریب ہی ہو
[YOUSAF ALI] It is Allah 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?
[ PICKTHAL ] Allah it is Who hath revealed the Scripture with truth, and the Balance. How canst thou know? It may be that the Hour is nigh.
[ SHAKIR ] Allah it is Who revealed the Book with truth, and the balance, and what shall make you know that haply the hour be nigh?
- Sura: 57 - al-Hadid (The Iron) Ayat: 25
لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَأَنْزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْمِيزَانَ لِيَقُومَ النَّاسُ بِالْقِسْطِ ۖ وَأَنْزَلْنَا الْحَدِيدَ فِيهِ بَأْسٌ شَدِيدٌ وَمَنَافِعُ لِلنَّاسِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَنْصُرُهُ وَرُسُلَهُ بِالْغَيْبِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ (25
بیشک ہم نے اپنے رسولوں کو واضح دلائل کے ساتھ بھیجا ہے اور ان کے ساتھ کتاب اور میزان کو نازل کیا ہے تاکہ لوگ انصاف کے ساتھ قیام کریں اور ہم نے لوہے کو بھی نازل کیا ہے جس میں شدید جنگ کا سامان اور بہت سے دوسرے منافع بھی ہیں اور اس لئے کہ خدا یہ دیکھے کہ کون ہے جو بغیر دیکھے اس کی اور اس کے رسول کی مدد کرتا ہے اور یقینا اللہ بڑا صاحبِ قوت اور صاحبِ عزت ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] We sent aforetime our messengers with Clear Signs and sent down with them the Book and the Balance (of Right and Wrong), that men may stand forth in justice; and We sent down Iron, in which is (material for) mighty war, as well as many benefits for mankind, that Allah may test who it is that will help, Unseen, Him and His messengers: For Allah is Full of Strength, Exalted in Might (and able to enforce His Will).
[ PICKTHAL ] We verily sent Our messengers with clear proofs, and revealed with them the Scripture and the Balance, that mankind may observe right measure; and He revealed iron, wherein is mighty power and (many) uses for mankind, and that Allah may know him who helpeth Him and His messengers, though unseen. Lo! Allah is Strong, Almighty.
[ SHAKIR ] Certainly We sent Our messengers with clear arguments, and sent down with them the Book and the balance that men may conduct themselves with equity; and We have made the iron, wherein is great violence and advantages to men, and that Allah may know who helps Him and His messengers in the secret; surely Allah is Strong, Mighty.
- Sura: 58 - al-Mujaadila (The Pleading Woman) From Ayat: 3 to 4
وَالَّذِينَ يُظَاهِرُونَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ ثُمَّ يَعُودُونَ لِمَا قَالُوا فَتَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَتَمَاسَّا ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ تُوعَظُونَ بِهِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ (3
جو لوگ تم میں سے اپنی عورتوں سے ظہار کریں اور پھر اپنی بات سے پلٹنا چاہیں انہیں چاہئے کہ عورت کو ہاتھ لگانے سے پہلے ایک غلام آزاد کریں کہ یہ خدا کی طرف سے تمہارے لئے نصیحت ہے اور خدا تمہارے اعمال سے خوب باخبر ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] But those who divorce their wives by Zihar, then wish to go back on the words they uttered,- (It is ordained that such a one) should free a slave before they touch each other: Thus are ye admonished to perform: and Allah is well-acquainted with (all) that ye do.
[ PICKTHAL ] Those who put away their wives (by saying they are as their mothers) and afterward would go back on that which they have said, (the penalty) in that case (is) the freeing of a slave before they touch one another. Unto this ye are exhorted; and Allah is Informed of what ye do.
[ SHAKIR ] And (as for) those who put away their wives by likening their backs to the backs of their mothers then would recall what they said, they should free a captive before they touch each other; to that you are admonished (to conform); and Allah is Aware of what you do.
- Sura: 58 - al-Mujaadila (The Pleading Woman) From Ayat: 3 to 4
فَمَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَصِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يَتَمَاسَّا ۖ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَإِطْعَامُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ لِتُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ۚ وَتِلْكَ حُدُودُ اللَّهِ ۗ وَلِلْكَافِرِينَ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ (4
پھر کسی شخص کے لئے غلام ممکن نہ ہو تو آپس میں ایک دوسرے کو مس کرنے سے پہلے دو مہینے کے مسلسل روزے رکھے پھر یہ بھی ممکن نہ ہو تو ساٹھ مسکینوں کو کھانا کھلائے یہ اس لئے تاکہ تم خدا و رسول پر صحیح ایمان رکھو اور یہ اللہ کے مقرر کردہ حدود ہیں اور کافروں کے لئے بڑا دردناک عذاب ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And if any has not (the wherewithal), he should fast for two months consecutively before they touch each other. But if any is unable to do so, he should feed sixty indigent ones, this, that ye may show your faith in Allah and His Messenger. Those are limits (set by) Allah. For those who reject (Him), there is a grievous Penalty.
[ PICKTHAL ] And he who findeth not (the wherewithal), let him fast for two successive months before they touch one another; and for him who is unable to do so (the penance is) the feeding of sixty needy ones. This, that ye may put trust in Allah and His messenger. Such are the limits (imposed by Allah); and for disbelievers is a painful doom.
[ SHAKIR ] But whoever has not the means, let him fast for two months successively before they touch each other; then as for him who is not able, let him feed sixty needy ones; that is in order that you may have faith in Allah and His Messenger, and these are Allah's limits, and the unbelievers shall have a painful punishment.
- Sura: 65 - at-Talaaq (Divorce) Ayat: 2
فَإِذَا بَلَغْنَ أَجَلَهُنَّ فَأَمْسِكُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ أَوْ فَارِقُوهُنَّ بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَأَشْهِدُوا ذَوَيْ عَدْلٍ مِنْكُمْ وَأَقِيمُوا الشَّهَادَةَ لِلَّهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكُمْ يُوعَظُ بِهِ مَنْ كَانَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ ۚ وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا (2
پھر جب وہ اپنی مدت کو پورا کرلیں تو انہیں نیکی کے ساتھ روک لو یا نیکی ہی کے ساتھ رخصت کردو اور طلاق کے لئے اپنے میں سے دو عادل افراد کو گواہ بناؤ اور گواہی کو صرف خدا کے لئے قائم کرو نصیحت ان لوگوں کو کی جارہی ہے جو خدا اور روز هآخرت پر ایمان رکھتے ہیں اور جو بھی اللہ سے ڈرتا ہے اللہ اس کے لئے نجات کی راہ پیدا کردیتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Thus when they fulfil their term appointed, either take them back on equitable terms or part with them on equitable terms; and take for witness two persons from among you, endued with justice, and establish the evidence (as) before Allah. Such is the admonition given to him who believes in Allah and the Last Day. And for those who fear Allah, He (ever) prepares a way out,
[ PICKTHAL ] Then, when they have reached their term, take them back in kindness or part from them in kindness, and call to witness two just men among you, and keep your testimony upright for Allah. Whoso believeth in Allah and the Last Day is exhorted to act thus. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, Allah will appoint a way out for him,
[ SHAKIR ] So when they have reached their prescribed time, then retain them with kindness or separate them with kindness, and call to witness two men of justice from among you, and give upright testimony for Allah. With that is admonished he who believes in Allah and the latter day; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah, He will make for him an outlet,
- Sura: 65 - at-Talaaq (Divorce) Ayat: 4
وَاللَّائِي يَئِسْنَ مِنَ الْمَحِيضِ مِنْ نِسَائِكُمْ إِنِ ارْتَبْتُمْ فَعِدَّتُهُنَّ ثَلَاثَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَاللَّائِي لَمْ يَحِضْنَ ۚ وَأُولَاتُ الْأَحْمَالِ أَجَلُهُنَّ أَنْ يَضَعْنَ حَمْلَهُنَّ ۚ وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ يُسْرًا (4
اور تمہاری عورتوں میں جو حیض سے مایوس ہوچکی ہیں اگر ان کے یائسہ ہونے میں شک ہو تو ان کا عدہ تین مہینے ہے اور اسی طرح وہ عورتیں جن کے یہاں حیض نہیں آتا ہے اور حاملہ عورتوں کا عدہ وضع حمل تک ہے اور جو خدا سے ڈرتا ہے خدا اس کے امر میں آسانی پیدا کردیتا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Such of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the prescribed period, if ye have any doubts, is three months, and for those who have no courses (it is the same): for those who carry (life within their wombs), their period is until they deliver their burdens: and for those who fear Allah, He will make their path easy.
[ PICKTHAL ] And for such of your women as despair of menstruation, if ye doubt, their period (of waiting) shall be three months, along with those who have it not. And for those with child, their period shall be till they bring forth their burden. And whosoever keepeth his duty to Allah, He maketh his course easy for him.
[ SHAKIR ] And (as for) those of your women who have despaired of menstruation, if you have a doubt, their prescribed time shall be three months, and of those too who have not had their courses; and (as for) the pregnant women, their prescribed time is that they lay down their burden; and whoever is careful of (his duty to) Allah He will make easy for him his affair.
- Sura: 65 - at-Talaaq (Divorce) Ayat: 8
وَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ عَتَتْ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهَا وَرُسُلِهِ فَحَاسَبْنَاهَا حِسَابًا شَدِيدًا وَعَذَّبْنَاهَا عَذَابًا نُكْرًا (8
اور کتنی ہی بستیاں ہیں جنہوں نے حکم خدا و رسول کی نافرمانی کی تو ہم نے ان کا شدید محاسبہ کرلیا اور انہیں بدترین عذاب میں متبلا کردیا
[YOUSAF ALI] How many populations that insolently opposed the Command of their Lord and of His messengers, did We not then call to account,- to severe account?- and We imposed on them an exemplary Punishment.
[ PICKTHAL ] And how many a community revolted against the ordinance of its Lord and His messengers, and We called it to a stern account and punished it with dire punishment,
[ SHAKIR ] And how many a town which rebelled against the commandment of its Lord and His messengers, so We called it to account severely and We chastised it (with) a stern chastisement.
- Sura: 65 - at-Talaaq (Divorce) Ayat: 12
اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ وَمِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا (12
اللرُہی وہ ہے جس نے ساتوں آسمانوں کو پیدا کیا ہے اور زمینوں میں بھی ویسی ہی زمینیں بنائی ہیں اس کے احکام ان کے درمیان نازل ہوتے رہتے ہیں تاکہ تمہیں یہ معلوم رہے کہ وہ ہر شے پر قادر ہے اور اس کا علم تمام اشیائ کو محیط ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] Allah is He Who created seven Firmaments and of the earth a similar number. Through the midst of them (all) descends His Command: that ye may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah comprehends, all things in (His) Knowledge.
[ PICKTHAL ] Allah it is who hath created seven heavens, and of the earth the like thereof. The commandment cometh down among them slowly, that ye may know that Allah is Able to do all things, and that Allah surroundeth all things in knowledge.
[ SHAKIR ] Allah is He Who created seven heavens, and of the earth the like of them; the decree continues to descend among them, that you may know that Allah has power over all things and that Allah indeed encompasses all things in (His) knowledge.
- Sura: 71 - Nooh (Nooh) Ayat: 15
أَلَمْ تَرَوْا كَيْفَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا (15
کیا تم نے نہیں دیکھا کہ خدا نے کس طرح تہ بہ تہ سات آسمان بنائے ہیں
[YOUSAF ALI] "'See ye not how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another,
[ PICKTHAL ] See ye not how Allah hath created seven heavens in harmony,
[ SHAKIR ] Do you not see how Allah has created the seven heavens ,~ one above another,

حَتَّىٰ إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ أَضْعَفُ نَاصِرًا وَأَقَلُّ عَدَدًا (24
یہاں تک کہ جب ان لوگوں نے اس عذاب کو دیکھ لیا جس کا وعدہ کیا گیا تھا تو انہیں معلوم ہوجائے گا کہ کس کے مددگار کمزور اور کس کی تعداد کمتر ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] At length, when they see (with their own eyes) that which they are promised,- then will they know who it is that is weakest in (his) helper and least important in point of numbers.
[ PICKTHAL ] Till (the day) when they shall behold that which they are promised (they may doubt); but then they will know (for certain) who is weaker in allies and less in multitude.
[ SHAKIR ] Until when they see what they are threatened with, then shall they know who is weaker in helpers and fewer in number.
- Sura: 72 - al-Jinn (the Jinn) Ayat: 28
لِيَعْلَمَ أَنْ قَدْ أَبْلَغُوا رِسَالَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَأَحَاطَ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ وَأَحْصَىٰ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدَدًا (28
تاکہ وہ دیکھ لے کہ انہوں نے اپنے رب کے پیغامات کو پہنچادیا ہے اور وہ جس کے پاس جو کچھ بھی ہے اس پر حاوی ہے اور سب کے اعداد کا حساب رکھنے والا ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] "That He may know that they have (truly) brought and delivered the Messages of their Lord: and He surrounds (all the mysteries) that are with them, and takes account of every single thing."
[ PICKTHAL ] That He may know that they have indeed conveyed the messages of their Lord. He surroundeth all their doings, and He keepeth count of all things.
[ SHAKIR ] So that He may know that they have truly delivered the messages of their Lord, and He encompasses what is with them and He records the number of all things.
- Sura: 74 - al-Muddaththir (The Cloaked One) Ayat: 31
وَمَا جَعَلْنَا أَصْحَابَ النَّارِ إِلَّا مَلَائِكَةً ۙ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلَّا فِتْنَةً لِلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيَسْتَيْقِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَيَزْدَادَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِيمَانًا ۙ وَلَا يَرْتَابَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ ۙ وَلِيَقُولَ الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مَرَضٌ وَالْكَافِرُونَ مَاذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَٰذَا مَثَلًا ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۚ وَمَا يَعْلَمُ جُنُودَ رَبِّكَ إِلَّا هُوَ ۚ وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا ذِكْرَىٰ لِلْبَشَرِ (31
اور ہم نے جہنمّ کا نگہبان صرف فرشتوں کو قرار دیا ہے اور ان کی تعداد کو کفار کی آزمائش کا ذریعہ بنادیا ہے کہ اہل کتاب کو یقین حاصل ہوجائے اور ایمان والوں کے ایمان میں اضافہ ہوجائے اور اہل کتاب یا صاحبانِ ایمان اس کے بارے میں کسی طرح کا شک نہ کریں اور جن کے دلوں میں مرض ہے اور کفار یہ کہنے لگیں کہ آخر اس مثال کا مقصد کیا ہے اللہ اسی طرح جس کو چاہتا ہے گمراہی میں چھوڑ دیتا ہے اور جس کو چاہتا ہے ہدایت دے دیتا ہے اور اس کے لشکروں کو اس کے علاوہ کوئی نہیں جانتا ہے یہ تو صرف لوگوں کی نصیحت کا ایک ذریعہ ہے
[YOUSAF ALI] And We have set none but angels as Guardians of the Fire; and We have fixed their number only as a trial for Unbelievers,- in order that the People of the Book may arrive at certainty, and the Believers may increase in Faith,- and that no doubts may be left for the People of the Book and the Believers, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the Unbelievers may say, "What symbol doth Allah intend by this?" Thus doth Allah leave to stray whom He pleaseth, and guide whom He pleaseth: and none can know the forces of thy Lord, except He and this is no other than a warning to mankind.
[ PICKTHAL ] We have appointed only angels to be wardens of the Fire, and their number have We made to be a stumbling-block for those who disbelieve; that those to whom the Scripture hath been given may have certainty, and that believers may increase in faith; and that those to whom the Scripture hath been given and believers may not doubt; and that those in whose hearts there is disease, and disbelievers, may say: What meaneth Allah by this similitude? Thus Allah sendeth astray whom He will, and whom He will He guideth. None knoweth the hosts of thy Lord save Him. This is naught else than a Reminder unto mortals.
[ SHAKIR ] And We have not made the wardens of the fire others than angels, and We have not made their number but as a trial for those who disbelieve, that those who have been given the book may be certain and those who believe may increase in faith, and those who have been given the book and the believers may not doubt, and that those in whose hearts is a disease and the unbelievers may say: What does Allah mean by this parable? Thus does Allah make err whom He pleases, and He guides whom He pleases, and none knows the hosts of your Lord but He Himself; and this is naught but a reminder to the mortals.
