Alif lām rā’ God knows best what He means by these letters. Those namely these signs are the signs of the wise Book that is the Qur’ān the genitive annexation āyāt al-kitāb has the meaning of min sc. min āyāti’l-kitāb ‘from among the verses of the Book’ which has been made clear.
أَكَانَ لِلنَّاسِ عَجَبًا أَنْ أَوْحَيْنَآ إِلَىٰ رَجُلٍ مِّنْهُمْ أَنْ أَنذِرِ ٱلنَّاسَ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَنَّ لَهُمْ قَدَمَ صِدْقٍ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ قَالَ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَسَٰحِرٌ مُّبِينٌ

Have the people been amazed that We revealed [revelation] to a man from among them, [saying], "Warn mankind and give good tidings to those who believe that they will have a [firm] precedence of honor with their Lord"? [But] the disbelievers say, "Indeed, this is an obvious magician."
کیا لوگوں کو تعجب ہوا کہ ہم نے ان ہی میں سے ایک مرد کو حکم بھیجا کہ لوگوں کو ڈر سنا دو۔ اور ایمان لانے والوں کو خوشخبری دے دو کہ ان کے پروردگار کے ہاں ان کا سچا درجہ ہے۔ (ایسے شخص کی نسبت) کافر کہتے ہیں کہ یہ صریح جادوگر ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Is it for the people the people of Mecca this interrogative is meant as a disavowal; the preposition li- ‘for’ and its dependent genitive noun al-nās ‘the people’ constitute a circumstantial qualifier of His saying a wonder ‘ajaban read in the accusative as a predicate of kāna; or if read in the nominative ‘ajabun as its subject its predicate which is also its subject if read according to the former accusative reading is the following an awhaynā that We have inspired a man from among them Muhammad (s) saying an ‘that’ is explicative ‘Warn threaten the people the disbelievers with chastisement and give good tidings to those who believe that they have a prior a preceding promise of truth with their Lord’? that is a preceding fair reward in return for the deeds they have sent forward. The disbelievers say ‘Truly this Qur’ān that comprises all of that mentioned is manifest sorcery’ a variant reading for la-sihrun has la-sāhirun ‘a sorcerer’ where it is the Prophet s to whom they are referring as being ‘a manifest sorcerer’.

Indeed, your Lord is Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in six days and then established Himself above the Throne, arranging the matter [of His creation]. There is no intercessor except after His permission. That is Allah, your Lord, so worship Him. Then will you not remember?
تمہارا پروردگار تو خدا ہی ہے جس نے آسمان اور زمین چھ دن میں بنائے پھر عرش (تخت شاہی) پر قائم ہوا وہی ہر ایک کا انتظام کرتا ہے۔ کوئی (اس کے پاس) اس کا اذن حاصل کیے بغیر کسی کی سفارش نہیں کرسکتا، یہی خدا تمہارا پروردگار ہے تو اسی کی عبادت کرو۔ بھلا تم غور کیوں نہیں کرتے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Truly your Lord is God Who created the heavens and the earth in six days of the days of this world that is in the same measure of time since there was no sun or moon then had He willed He could have created them in an instant but the reason for His not having done so is that He wanted to teach His creatures to be circumspect; then He presided upon the Throne a presiding befitting of Him directing affairs among creatures. There is no mā min indicates a relative clause intercessor to intercede for anyone save after His permission a refutation of their saying ‘The idols intercede for us!’; that Creator and Director is God your Lord so worship Him affirm His Oneness. Will you not remember? tadhakkarūna the original tā’ of tatadhakkarūna has been assimilated with the dhāl.

To Him is your return all together. [It is] the promise of Allah [which is] truth. Indeed, He begins the [process of] creation and then repeats it that He may reward those who have believed and done righteous deeds, in justice. But those who disbelieved will have a drink of scalding water and a painful punishment for what they used to deny.
اسی کے پاس تم سب کو لوٹ کر جانا ہے۔ خدا کا وعدہ سچا ہے۔ وہی خلقت کو پہلی بار پیدا کرتا ہے۔ پھر وہی اس کو دوبارہ پیدا کرے گا تاکہ ایمان والوں اور نیک کام کرنے والوں کو انصاف کے ساتھ بدلہ دے۔ اور جو کافر ہیں ان کے لیے پینے کو نہایت گرم پانی اور درد دینے والا عذاب ہوگا کیوں کہ (خدا سے) انکار کرتے تھے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
To Him exalted be He is the return of all of you God’s promise in truth both wa‘da and haqqan are verbal nouns and in the accusative because of the verbs implicit in them. Truly He read innahu as a new sentence or annahu with an implied lām sc. li-annahu ‘Because He’ originates creation that is He began it by originating it then recreates it through resurrection that He may requite reward those who believe and perform righteous deeds justly. And those who disbelieve for them will be a draught of boiling water and a painful chastisement because they disbelieved.

It is He who made the sun a shining light and the moon a derived light and determined for it phases - that you may know the number of years and account [of time]. Allah has not created this except in truth. He details the signs for a people who know
وہی تو ہے جس نے سورج کو روشن اور چاند کو منور بنایا اور چاند کی منزلیں مقرر کیں تاکہ تم برسوں کا شمار اور (کاموں کا) حساب معلوم کرو۔ یہ (سب کچھ) خدا نے تدبیر سے پیدا کیا ہے۔ سمجھنے والوں کے لیے وہ اپنی آیاتیں کھول کھول کر بیان فرماتا ہے

God did not create that which is mentioned save in truth not in vain exalted be He above such things. He details read yufassilu or nufassilu ‘We detail’ the signs for a people who know who reflect.

And if Allah was to hasten for the people the evil [they invoke] as He hastens for them the good, their term would have been ended for them. But We leave the ones who do not expect the meeting with Us, in their transgression, wandering blindly
اور اگر خدا لوگوں کی برائی میں جلدی کرتا جس طرح وہ طلب خیر میں جلدی کرتے ہیں۔ تو ان کی (عمر کی) میعاد پوری ہوچکی ہوتی سو جن لوگوں کو ہم سے ملنے کی توقع نہیں انہیں ہم چھوڑے رکھتے ہیں کہ اپنی سرکشی میں بہکتے رہیں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
When the idolaters sought to hasten their chastisement the following was revealed And if God should hasten for mankind evil as they would hasten good their term of life would already have been concluded for them read as the passive with nominative ajaluhum sc. la-qudiya ajaluhum; or read as the active with accusative ajalahum sc. la-qadā ajalahum ‘He would have already concluded their term’ by His destroying them but He gives them respite.

And when affliction touches man, he calls upon Us, whether lying on his side or sitting or standing; but when We remove from him his affliction, he continues [in disobedience] as if he had never called upon Us to [remove] an affliction that touched him. Thus is made pleasing to the transgressors that which they have been doing
اور جب انسان کو تکلیف پہنچتی ہے تو لیٹا اور بیٹھا اور کھڑا (ہر حال میں) ہمیں پکارتا ہے۔ پھر جب ہم اس تکلیف کو اس سے دور کر دیتے ہیں تو (بےلحاظ ہو جاتا ہے اور) اس طرح گزر جاتا ہے گویا کسی تکلیف پہنچنے پر ہمیں کبھی پکارا ہی نہ تھا۔ اسی طرح حد سے نکل جانے والوں کو ان کے اعمال آراستہ کرکے دکھائے گئے ہیں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
If misfortune illness or poverty should befall a disbelieving man he calls upon Us on his side that is lying down or sitting or standing in other words in every state; but when We have relieved him of his misfortune he passes on in his unbelief as if ka-an is softened its subject omitted in other words read as ka-annahu he had never called upon Us because of a misfortune that befell him. So in the same way that supplication during misfortune and abstention from supplication in times of comfort were adorned for him is adorned for the prodigal the idolaters that which they do.

And We had already destroyed generations before you when they wronged, and their messengers had come to them with clear proofs, but they were not to believe. Thus do We recompense the criminal people
اور تم سے پہلے ہم کئی امتوں کو جب انہوں نے ظلم کا راستہ اختیار کیا ہلاک کرچکے ہیں۔ اور ان کے پاس پیغمبر کھلی نشانیاں لے کر آئے مگر وہ ایسے نہ تھے کہ ایمان لاتے۔ ہم گنہگار لوگوں کو اسی طرح بدلہ دیا کرتے ہیں

And indeed We have destroyed generations communities before you O people of Mecca when they did evil by way of idolatry and indeed their messengers brought them clear proofs indicating their truthfulness; but they would not believe wa-mā kānū li-yu’minū this is a supplement to zalamū ‘they did evil’. So just as We destroyed those We shall requite the sinning the unbelieving folk.

And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who do not expect the meeting with Us say, "Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it." Say, [O Muhammad], "It is not for me to change it on my own accord. I only follow what is revealed to me. Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."
اور جب ان کو ہماری آیتیں پڑھ کر سنائی جاتی ہیں تو جن لوگوں کو ہم سے ملنے کی امید نہیں وہ کہتے ہیں کہ (یا تو) اس کے سوا کوئی اور قرآن (بنا) لاؤ یا اس کو بدل دو۔ کہہ دو کہ مجھ کو اختیار نہیں ہے کہ اسے اپنی طرف سے بدل دو۔ میں تو اسی حکم کا تابع ہوں جو میری طرف آتا ہے۔ اگر میں اپنے پروردگار کی نافرمانی کروں تو مجھے بڑے (سخت) دن کے عذاب سے خوف آتا ہے

And when Our clear manifest bayyināt is a circumstantial qualifier verses from the Qur’ān are recited to them those who do not expect to encounter Us those who do not fear the Resurrection say ‘Bring a Qur’ān other than this one in which our gods are not denigrated or change it’ of your own accord. Say to them ‘It is not for me to change it of my own accord. I only follow that which is revealed to me. Truly I fear if I should disobey my Lord by changing it the chastisement of a dreadful day’ that is the Day of Resurrection.

Say, "If Allah had willed, I would not have recited it to you, nor would He have made it known to you, for I had remained among you a lifetime before it. Then will you not reason?"

Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Say ‘If God had willed I would not have recited it to you nor would He have made it known to you nor would He have made you aware of it the lā of wa-lā adrākum is for negation and is a supplement to what preceded; a variant reading has the lām sc. la-adrākum ‘He would have made it known to you’ as the response to the conditional law ‘if’ in other words He would have made it known to you by the tongue of someone other than myself. For I have already dwelt among you a whole lifetime of forty years before this Qur’ān not relating to you anything of the sort so will you not understand?’ that this Qur’ān is not from myself?

تو اس سے بڑھ کر ظالم کون جو خدا پر جھوٹ افترا کرے اور اس کی آیتوں کو جھٹلائے۔ بےشک گنہگار فلاح نہیں پائیں گے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And who that is no one does greater evil than he who invents a lie against God by ascribing a partner to Him or denies His signs? denies the Qur’ān. Surely it is that the sinners the idolaters shall not prosper they shall never find happiness.

And they worship other than Allah that which neither harms them nor benefits them, and they say, "These are our intercessors with Allah " Say, "Do you inform Allah of something He does not know in the heavens or on the earth?" Exalted is He and high above what they associate with Him
اور یہ (لوگ) خدا کے سوا ایسی چیزوں کی پرستش کرتے ہیں جو نہ ان کا کچھ بگاڑ ہی سکتی ہیں اور نہ کچھ بھلا ہی کر سکتی ہیں اور کہتے ہیں کہ یہ خدا کے پاس ہماری سفارش کرنے والے ہیں۔ کہہ دو کہ کیا تم خدا کو ایسی چیز بتاتے ہو جس کا وجود اسے نہ آسمانوں میں معلوم ہوتا ہے اور نہ زمین میں۔ وہ پاک ہے اور (اس کی شان) ان کے شرک کرنے سے بہت بلند ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And they worship besides God that is other than Him that which can neither hurt them should they not worship it nor profit them if they do worship it — and these are the idols; and they say of them ‘These are our intercessors with God’. Say to them ‘Would you tell would you inform God of what He does not know in the heavens or in the earth?’ the interrogative is meant as a disavowal for if He had a partner He Himself would know it since nothing can be hidden from Him. Glory be to Him! in affirmation of His transcendence and High be He exalted above what they associate! with Him.
وَمَا كَانَ ٱلنَّاسُ إِلَّآ أُمَّةً وَٰحِدَةً فَٱخْتَلَفُوا۟ وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِن رَّبِّكَ لَقُضِىَ بَيْنَهُمْ فِيمَا فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ

And mankind was not but one community [united in religion], but [then] they differed. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord, it would have been judged between them [immediately] concerning that over which they differ.
اور (سب) لوگ (پہلے) ایک ہی اُمت (یعنی ایک ہی ملت پر) تھے۔ پھر جدا جدا ہوگئے۔ اور اگر ایک بات جو تمہارے پروردگار کی طرف سے پہلے ہوچکی ہے نہ ہوتی تو جن باتوں میں وہ اختلاف کرتے ہیں ان میں فیصلہ کر دیا جاتا
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Mankind was but one community following one religion that is submission to the One God from the time of Adam to the time of Noah; but it is also said that this was the case from the time of Abraham to that of ‘Amr b.

And had it not been for a word that had already preceded from your Lord to the effect that requital would be deferred until the Day of Resurrection it would have been decided between them that is between mankind in this life regarding that over which they differed in religion by the disbelievers being punished.

And they say, "Why is a sign not sent down to him from his Lord?" So say, "The unseen is only for Allah [to administer], so wait; indeed, I am with you among those who wait."
اور کہتے ہیں کہ اس پر اس کے پروردگار کی طرف سے کوئی نشانی کیوں نازل نہیں ہوئی۔ کہہ دو کہ غیب (کا علم) تو خدا کو ہے سو تم انتظار کرو۔ میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ انتظار کرتا ہوں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And they the people of Mecca say ‘Why has a sign not been sent down on him on Muhammad (s) from his Lord?’ as was the case with previous prophets in the way of a she-camel a staff or a glowing hand. Then say to them ‘The Unseen that which is concealed from servants in other words its affair belongs only to God and it is from this Unseen that signs come forth; therefore He alone can bring them forth mine is only to covey the Message. So wait for the chastisement if you do not believe. I am waiting with you’.

And when We give the people a taste of mercy after adversity has touched them, at once they conspire against Our verses. Say, "Allah is swifter in strategy." Indeed, Our messengers record that which you conspire
اور جب ہم لوگوں کو تکلیف پہنچنے کے بعد (اپنی) رحمت (سے آسائش) کا مزہ چکھاتے ہیں تو وہ ہماری آیتوں میں حیلے کرنے لگتے ہیں۔ کہہ دو کہ خدا بہت جلد حیلہ کرنے والا ہے۔ اور جو حیلے تم کرتے ہو ہمارے فرشتے ان کو لکھتے جاتے ہیں

But when He saves them, at once they commit injustice upon the earth without right. O mankind, your injustice is only against yourselves, [being merely] the enjoyment of worldly life. Then to Us is your return, and We will inform you of what you used to do.
لیکن جب وہ ان کو نجات دے دیتا ہے تو ملک میں ناحق شرارت کرنے لگتے ہیں۔ لوگو! تمہاری شرارت کا وبال تمہاری ہی جانوں پر ہوگا تم دنیا کی زندگی کے فائدے اُٹھا لو۔ پھر تم کو ہمارے پاس لوٹ کر آنا ہے۔ اس وقت ہم تم کو بتائیں گے جو کچھ تم کیا کرتے تھے

The example of [this] worldly life is but like rain which We have sent down from the sky that the plants of the earth absorb - [those] from which men and livestock eat - until, when the earth has taken on its adornment and is beautified and its people suppose that they have capability over it, there comes to it Our command by night or by day, and We make it as a harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday. Thus do We explain in detail the signs for a people who give thought.
دنیا کی زندگی کی مثال مینھہ کی سی ہے کہ ہم نے اس کو آسمان سے برسایا۔ پھر اس کے ساتھ سبزہ جسے آدمی اور جانور کھاتے ہیں مل کر نکلا یہاں تک کہ زمین سبزے سے خوشنما اور آراستہ ہوگئی اور زمین والوں نے خیال کیا کہ وہ اس پر پوری دسترس رکھتے ہیں ناگہاں رات کو یا دن کو ہمارا حکم (عذاب) آپہنچا تو ہم نے اس کو کاٹ (کر ایسا کر) ڈالا کہ گویا کل وہاں کچھ تھا ہی نہیں۔ جو لوگ غور کرنے والے ہیں۔ ان کے لیے ہم (اپنی قدرت کی) نشانیاں اسی طرح کھول کھول کر بیان کرتے ہیں

The likeness the description of the life of this world is only as water rain which We send down from the heaven then the plants of the earth mingle with it they mingle because of it attaching themselves one to another whereof mankind eat plants such as wheat and barley and so on and cattle eat of pasture until when the earth has taken on its ornaments its splendour of plants and has adorned itself with flowers izzayyanat ‘adorned itself’ is originally tazayyanat but the tā’ has been substituted with the zāy and assimilated with it and its inhabitants think that they are masters of it fully capable of harvesting its fruits Our command Our decree or Our chastisement comes upon it by night or day and We make it that is its crops as reaped corn like that which has been reaped with sickles as though ka-an is softened in other words read it as ka-annahā the previous day it had not flourished as though it never were. Thus do We detail do We make clear the signs for a people who reflect.

But they who have earned [blame for] evil doings - the recompense of an evil deed is its equivalent, and humiliation will cover them. They will have from Allah no protector. It will be as if their faces are covered with pieces of the night - so dark [are they]. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.
اور جنہوں نے برے کام کئے تو برائی کا بدلہ ویسا ہی ہوگا۔ اور ان کے مونہوں پر ذلت چھا جائے گی۔ اور کوئی ان کو خدا سے بچانے والا نہ ہوگا۔ ان کے مونہوں (کی سیاہی کا یہ عالم ہوگا کہ ان) پر گویا اندھیری رات کے ٹکڑے اُڑھا دیئے گئے ہیں۔ یہی دوزخی ہیں کہ ہمیشہ اس میں رہیں گے

Those they are the inhabitants of the Fire therein they will abide.

Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And mention the day on which We shall gather them that is creation all together then We shall say to those who associated others with God ‘In your place! makānakum is in the accusative because ilzamū ‘adhere to’ is implied sc. ilzamū makānakum. You antum this emphasises the second person plural subject concealed in the implied verb ilzamū and allows for the supplement that follows and your associates!’ that is the idols. Then We shall make a separation We shall distinguish between them and the believers as is stated in the verse wa’mtāzū’l-yawma ayyuhā’l-mujrimūn ‘Now be separate you sinners upon this day!’ Q. 3659; and their associates will say to them ‘It was not us that you were worshipping mā of mā-kuntum ‘you were not …’ is for negation; the direct object iyyānā ‘us’ precedes the verb in order to accord with the end-rhyme of the Qur’ānic verse;
فَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ شَهِيدًۢا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ إِن كُنَّا عَنْ عِبَادَتِكُمْ لَغَٰفِلِينَ

There, [on that Day], every soul will be put to trial for what it did previously, and they will be returned to Allah, their master, the Truth, and lost from them is whatever they used to invent.
وہاں ہر شخص (اپنے اعمال کی) جو اس نے آگے بھیجے ہوں گے آزمائش کرلے گا اور وہ اپنے سچے مالک کی طرف لوٹائے جائیں گے اور جو کچھ وہ بہتان باندھا کرتے تھے سب ان سے جاتا رہے گا

Say, "Who provides for you from the heaven and the earth? Or who controls hearing and sight and who brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living and who arranges [every] matter?" They will say, "Allah," so say, "Then will you not fear Him?"

They will surely say ‘It is He God.’ Then say to them ‘Will you not then fear?’ Him and believe?

Fazaalikumul laahu Rabbukumul haqq; famaazaa ba'dal haqqi illad dalaalu fa annnaa tusrafoon
For that is Allah, your Lord, the Truth. And what can be beyond truth except error? So how are you averted?
یہی خدا تو تمہارا پروردگار برحق ہے۔ اور حق بات کے ظاہر ہونے کے بعد گمراہی کے سوا ہے ہی کیا؟ تو تم کہاں پھرے جاتے ہو
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
That Doer of all these things then is God your true established Lord so what is there after truth except error? the interrogative is meant as an affirmative in other words there is nothing after it truth other than that error; thus he who mistakes the truth which is the worship of God has fallen into error. How then are you turned away from faith despite the proofs having been established?
كَذَٰلِكَ حَقَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ فَسَقُوٓا۟ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ
Kazaalika haqqat Kalimatu Rabbika 'alal lazeena fasaqooo annahum laa yu'minoon
Thus the word of your Lord has come into effect upon those who defiantly disobeyed - that they will not believe.
اسی طرح خدا کا ارشاد ان نافرمانوں کے حق میں ثابت ہو کر رہا کہ یہ ایمان نہیں لائیں گے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Thus just as those are turned away from faith so the Word of your Lord is justified concerning those who are wicked those who disbelieve and this Word is either the verse Q. 3213‘Verily I shall fill Hell with jinn and mankind together’ or it is the following that they do not believe.
قُلْ هَلْ مِن شُرَكَآئِكُم مَّن يَبْدَؤُا۟ ٱلْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُۥ قُلِ ٱللَّهُ يَبْدَؤُا۟ ٱلْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُۥ فَأَنَّىٰ تُؤْفَكُونَ

Say, "Are there of your 'partners' any who begins creation and then repeats it?" Say, "Allah begins creation and then repeats it, so how are you deluded?"
(ان سے) پوچھو کہ بھلا تمھارے شریکوں میں سے کوئی ایسا ہے کہ مخلوق کو ابتداً پیدا کرے (اور) پھر اس کو دوبارہ بنائے؟ کہہ دو کہ خدا ہی پہلی بار پیدا کرتا ہے پھر وہی اس کو دوبارہ پیدا کرے گا تو تم کہاں اُکسے جارہے ہو

Say, "Are there of your 'partners' any who guides to the truth?" Say, "Allah guides to the truth. So is He who guides to the truth more worthy to be followed or he who guides not unless he is guided? Then what is [wrong] with you - how do you judge?"
پوچھو کہ بھلا تمہارے شریکوں میں کون ایسا ہے کہ حق کا رستہ دکھائے۔ کہہ دو کہ خدا ہی حق کا رستہ دکھاتا ہے۔ بھلا جو حق کا رستہ دکھائے وہ اس قابل ہے کہ اُس کی پیروی کی جائے یا وہ کہ جب تک کوئی اسے رستہ نہ بتائے رستہ نہ پائے۔ تو تم کو کیا ہوا ہے کیسا انصاف کرتے ہو؟
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Say ‘Is there of those whom you associate with God one that guides to the truth?’ by means of setting up definitive arguments and creating guidance. Say ‘God guides to the truth; is One Who guides to the truth — and this is God — more deserving of being followed or one who does not guide one who is not himself guided unless he is guided? more deserving of being followed? the interrogative is meant as an affirmation and a rebuke in other words the former is more deserving. So what is wrong with you how do you judge?’ how do you make this corrupt judgement one where what does not deserve to be followed is followed?
وَمَا يَتَّبِعُ أَكْثَرُهُمْ إِلَّا ظَنًّا إِنَّ ٱلظَّنَّ لَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ شَيْـًٔا إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌۢ بِمَا يَفْعَلُونَ
Wa maa yattabi'u aksaruhum illaa zannaa; innaz zanna laa yughnee minal haqqi shai'aa; innal laaha 'Aleemum bimaa yaf'aloon
And most of them follow not except assumption. Indeed, assumption avails not against the truth at all. Indeed, Allah is Knowing of what they do.
اور ان میں سے اکثر صرف ظن کی پیروی کرتے ہیں۔ اور کچھ شک نہیں کہ ظن حق کے مقابلے میں کچھ بھی کارآمد نہیں ہوسکتا۔ بےشک خدا تمہارے (سب) افعال سے واقف ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And most of them in worshipping idols follow nothing but conjecture since they imitate their fathers therein; truly conjecture avails nothing against truth when what is sought is knowledge. Surely God is Knower of what they do and will requite them for it.

And it was not [possible] for this Qur'an to be produced by other than Allah, but [it is] a confirmation of what was before it and a detailed explanation of the [former] Scripture, about which there is no doubt, from the Lord of the worlds.
اور یہ قرآن ایسا نہیں کہ خدا کے سوا کوئی اس کو اپنی طرف سے بنا لائے۔ ہاں (ہاں یہ خدا کا کلام ہے) جو (کتابیں) اس سے پہلے (کی) ہیں۔ ان کی تصدیق کرتا ہے اور ان ہی کتابوں کی (اس میں) تفصیل ہے اس میں کچھ شک نہیں (کہ) یہ رب العالمین کی طرف سے (نازل ہوا) ہے

And this Qur’ān is not such as could ever be produced that is it could not be a fabrication by anyone besides God; but it is revealed as a confirmation of what is before it of Scriptures and a detailing of the Book a exposition of the rulings and other matters which God has prescribed — wherein is no doubt no uncertainty — from the Lord of the Worlds min rabbi’l-‘ālamīn is semantically connected to tasdīqa ‘a confirmation’ or to an omitted unzila ‘revealed’; a variant reading for accusative tasdīqa has the nominative tasdīqu and nominative tafsīlu ‘a detailing’ for the accusative tafsīla by reading an implied huwa ‘it is’.
أَمْ يَقُولُونَ ٱفْتَرَىٰهُ قُلْ فَأْتُوا۟ بِسُورَةٍ مِّثْلِهِۦ وَٱدْعُوا۟ مَنِ ٱسْتَطَعْتُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ
Am yaqooloonaf taraahu qul faatoo bisooratim mislihee wad'oo manis tata'tum min doonil laahi in kuntum saadiqeen
Or do they say [about the Prophet], "He invented it?" Say, "Then bring forth a surah like it and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allah, if you should be truthful."
کیا یہ لوگ کہتے ہیں کہ پیغمبر نے اس کو اپنی طرف سے بنا لیا ہے کہہ دو کہ اگر سچے ہو تو تم بھی اس طرح کی ایک سورت بنا لاؤ اور خدا کے سوا جن کو تم بلا سکو بلا بھی لو
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Or do they say ‘He has invented it’? Muhammad (s) has invented it. Say ‘Then bring a sūra like it in terms of the clarity and the rhetorical excellence of its language by way of invention for you are eloquent speakers of Arabic like me; and call upon whom you can for help in this matter besides God that is other than Him if you are truthful’ in saying that this is an invention. But they were not able to do this.
بَلْ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِمَا لَمْ يُحِيطُوا۟ بِعِلْمِهِۦ وَلَمَّا يَأْتِهِمْ تَأْوِيلُهُۥ كَذَٰلِكَ كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Bal kazzaboo bimaa lam yuheetoo bi'ilmihee wa lammaa yaatihim taaweeluh; kazaalika kazzabal lazeena min qablihim fanzur kaifa kaana 'aaqibatuz zaalimeen
Rather, they have denied that which they encompass not in knowledge and whose interpretation has not yet come to them. Thus did those before them deny. Then observe how was the end of the wrongdoers.
حقیقت یہ ہے کہ جس چیز کے علم پر یہ قابو نہیں پاسکے اس کو (نادانی سے) جھٹلا دیا اور ابھی اس کی حقیقت ان پر کھلی ہی نہیں۔ اسی طرح جو لوگ ان سے پہلے تھے انہوں نے تکذیب کی تھی سو دیکھ لو ظالموں کا انجام کیسا ہوا
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
God exalted be He says Nay but they denied that the knowledge whereof they did not comprehend that is they denied the Qur’ān and did not reflected upon it; and whereof the interpretation the consequence of the threats made therein has not yet come to them. So in the same manner of denial those who were before them denied their messengers. Behold then what was the consequence for the evildoers! for denying the messengers in other words behold how their affair was concluded by their being destroyed. In a similar manner We shall destroy these people.
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يُؤْمِنُ بِهِۦ وَمِنْهُم مَّن لَّا يُؤْمِنُ بِهِۦ وَرَبُّكَ أَعْلَمُ بِٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ
Wa minhum mai yu 'minu bihee wa minhum mal laa yu'minu bih; wa Rabbuka a'lamu bilmufsideen
And of them are those who believe in it, and of them are those who do not believe in it. And your Lord is most knowing of the corrupters
اور ان میں سے کچھ تو ایسے ہیں کہ اس پر ایمان لے آتے ہیں اور کچھ ایسے ہیں کہ ایمان نہیں لاتے۔ اور تمھارا پروردگار شریروں سے خوب واقف ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And of them that is of the people of Mecca are some who believe in it God being aware of this in their case and some who would never believe therein. And your Lord knows very well the corrupters this is a threat for them.
وَإِن كَذَّبُوكَ فَقُل لِّى عَمَلِى وَلَكُمْ عَمَلُكُمْ أَنتُم بَرِيٓـُٔونَ مِمَّآ أَعْمَلُ وَأَنَا۠ بَرِىٓءٌ مِّمَّا تَعْمَلُونَ
Wa in kazzabooka faqul lee 'amalee wa lakum 'amalukum antum bareee'oona mimmaaa a'malu wa ana bareee'um mimmaa ta'maloon
And if they deny you, [O Muhammad], then say, "For me are my deeds, and for you are your deeds. You are disassociated from what I do, and I am disassociated from what you do."
اور اگر یہ تمہاری تکذیب کریں تو کہہ دو کہ مجھ کو میرے اعمال (کا بدلہ ملے گا) اور تم کو تمہارے اعمال (کا) تم میرے عملوں کا جواب دہ نہیں ہو اور میں تمہارے عملوں کا جوابدہ نہیں ہوں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
If they deny you then say to them ‘Unto me is my work and to you your work that is for each there will be a due requital of his deeds; you are innocent of what I do and I am innocent of what you do’ this was abrogated by the ‘sword’ verse Q. 95.
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَسْتَمِعُونَ إِلَيْكَ أَفَأَنتَ تُسْمِعُ ٱلصُّمَّ وَلَوْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ
Wa minhum mai yastami'oona iliak; afa anta tusmi'us summa wa law kaanoo la ya'qiloon
And among them are those who listen to you. But can you cause the deaf to hear, although they will not use reason?
اور ان میں سے بعض ایسے ہیں کہ تمہاری طرف کان لگاتے ہیں تو کیا تم بہروں کو سناؤ گے اگرچہ کچھ بھی (سنتے) سمجھتے نہ ہوں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And of them are some who listen to you when you recite the Qur’ān. But will you make the deaf to hear — He likens them the Meccan disbelievers to these the deaf because they are not able to benefit from what is recited to them — even though with their deafness they do not understand? even though they do not reflect?
وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَنظُرُ إِلَيْكَ أَفَأَنتَ تَهْدِى ٱلْعُمْىَ وَلَوْ كَانُوا۟ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ
Wa minhum mai yanzuru ilaik; afa anta tahdil 'umya wa law kaanoo laa yubsiroon
And among them are those who look at you. But can you guide the blind although they will not [attempt to] see?
اور بعض ایسے ہیں کہ تمھاری طرف دیکھتے ہیں۔ تو کیا تم اندھوں کو راستہ دکھاؤ گے اگرچہ کچھ بھی دیکھتے (بھالتے) نہ ہوں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And of them are some who look toward you. But will you guide the blind even though they do not see? — He likens them the Meccan disbelievers to these the blind because they fail to be guided nay they are much worse since God says It is not the eyes that are blind but blind are the hearts within the breasts Q. 2246.
إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَظْلِمُ ٱلنَّاسَ شَيْـًٔا وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱلنَّاسَ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ
Innal laaha laa yazlimun naasa shai'anw wa laakin nannaasa anfusahum yazlimoon
Indeed, Allah does not wrong the people at all, but it is the people who are wronging themselves.
خدا تو لوگوں پر کچھ ظلم نہیں کرتا لیکن لوگ ہی اپنے آپ پر ظلم کرتے ہیں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Verily God does not wrong mankind in any way but mankind wrong themselves.
وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ كَأَن لَّمْ يَلْبَثُوٓا۟ إِلَّا سَاعَةً مِّنَ ٱلنَّهَارِ يَتَعَارَفُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ قَدْ خَسِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِلِقَآءِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُهْتَدِينَ
Wa Yawma yahshuruhum ka al lam yalbasooo illaa saa'atam minan nahaari yata'aarafoona bainahum; qad khasiral lazeena kazzaboo biliqaaa'il laahi wa maa kaanoo muhtadeen
And on the Day when He will gather them, [it will be] as if they had not remained [in the world] but an hour of the day, [and] they will know each other. Those will have lost who denied the meeting with Allah and were not guided
اور جس دن خدا ان کو جمع کرے گا (تو وہ دنیا کی نسبت ایسا خیال کریں گے کہ) گویا (وہاں) گھڑی بھر دن سے زیادہ رہے ہی نہیں تھے (اور) آپس میں ایک دوسرے کو شناخت بھی کریں گے۔ جن لوگوں نے خدا کے روبرو حاضر ہونے کو جھٹلایا وہ خسارے میں پڑ گئے اور راہ یاب نہ ہوئے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And on the day when He shall gather them it is as if they had not tarried in this world or in the grave but an hour of the day because of the terror of what they see the comparative sentence is a circumstantial qualifier referring to the third person pronoun; recognising one another knowing one another upon their being resurrected but thereafter the recognition ceases on account of the severity of the terrors the last sentence is either an implied circumstantial qualifier or one connected to the adverbial qualifier yawma ‘on the day’; those will verily have lost who denied the encounter with God through resurrection for they were not guided.
وَإِمَّا نُرِيَنَّكَ بَعْضَ ٱلَّذِى نَعِدُهُمْ أَوْ نَتَوَفَّيَنَّكَ فَإِلَيْنَا مَرْجِعُهُمْ ثُمَّ ٱللَّهُ شَهِيدٌ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ
Wa imma nuriyannaka ba'dal lazee na'iduhum aw natawaffayannaka fa ilainaa marji'uhum summal laahu shaheedun 'alaa maa yaf'aloon
And whether We show you some of what We promise them, [O Muhammad], or We take you in death, to Us is their return; then, [either way], Allah is a witness concerning what they are doing
اور اگر ہم کوئی عذاب جس کا ان لوگوں سے وعدہ کرتے ہیں تمہاری آنکھوں کے سامنے (نازل) کریں یا (اس وقت جب) تمہاری مدت حیات پوری کردیں تو ان کو ہمارے ہی پاس لوٹ کر آنا ہے پھر جو کچھ یہ کر رہے ہیں خدا اس کو دیکھ رہا ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And whether wa-immā the nūn of the conditional particle in has been assimiliated with the extra mā We show you something of that which We promise them of chastisement during your lifetime the response to the conditional statement has been omitted in other words understand it as being fa-dhāka ‘then so shall it be’ or We take you to Us before punishing them to Us they shall return and God moreover is Witness Aware of what they do in the way of their denials and disbelief and so will chastise them with the severest punishment.
وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولٌ فَإِذَا جَآءَ رَسُولُهُمْ قُضِىَ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
Wa likulli ummatir Rasoolun fa izaa jaaa'a Rasooluhum qudiya bainahum bilqisti wa hum laa yuzlamoon
And for every nation is a messenger. So when their messenger comes, it will be judged between them in justice, and they will not be wronged
اور ہر ایک اُمت کی طرف سے پیغمبر بھیجا گیا۔ جب ان کا پیغمبر آتا ہے تو اُن میں انصاف کے ساتھ فیصلہ کر دیا جاتا ہے اور ان پر کچھ ظلم نہیں کیا جاتا
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And for every community of the communities of this world there is a messenger. And when their messenger comes to them and they deny him judgement is passed between them justly fairly such that they are punished and the messenger and all those who accepted his truthfulness are delivered; and they are not wronged by being punished for no crime similarly We shall deal with these disbelievers of your community.
وَيَقُولُونَ مَتَىٰ هَٰذَا ٱلْوَعْدُ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ

And they say, "When is [the fulfillment of] this promise, if you should be truthful?"
اور یہ کہتے ہیں کہ اگر تم سچے ہو تو (جس عذاب کا) یہ وعدہ (ہے وہ آئے گا) کب؟
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And they say ‘When will this promise of chastisement come to pass if you are truthful about it?’
قُل لَّآ أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِى ضَرًّا وَلَا نَفْعًا إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلٌ إِذَا جَآءَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَلَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ سَاعَةً وَلَا يَسْتَقْدِمُونَ

Say, "I possess not for myself any harm or benefit except what Allah should will. For every nation is a [specified] term. When their time has come, then they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they precede [it]."
کہہ دو کہ میں اپنے نقصان اور فائدے کا بھی کچھ اختیار نہیں رکھتا۔ مگر جو خدا چاہے۔ ہر ایک امت کے لیے (موت کا) ایک وقت مقرر ہے۔ جب وہ وقت آجاتا ہے تو ایک گھڑی بھی دیر نہیں کرسکتے اور نہ جلدی کرسکتے ہیں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Say ‘I have no power to avert hurt from myself or to bring benefit except as God might will to give me power over so how could I possess the power to bring about the chastisement? For every community there is an appointed time a fixed period until they perish. When their time comes they cannot put it off they will not miss it by a single hour nor bring it forward nor overtake it’.
قُلْ أَرَءَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَتَىٰكُمْ عَذَابُهُۥ بَيَٰتًا أَوْ نَهَارًا مَّاذَا يَسْتَعْجِلُ مِنْهُ ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ
Qul ara'aitum in ataakum 'azaabuhoo bayaatan aw nahaaram maazaa yasta'jilu minhul mujrimoon
Say, "Have you considered: if His punishment should come to you by night or by day - for which [aspect] of it would the criminals be impatient?"
کہہ دو کہ بھلا دیکھو تو اگر اس کا عذاب تم پر (ناگہاں) آجائے رات کو یا دن کو تو پھر گنہگار کس بات کی جلدی کریں گے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Say ‘Have you considered? Say inform me If His God’s chastisement comes upon you by night or day what part is there of it that is of the chastisement that the sinners the idolaters seek to hasten? an overt noun al-mujrimūn ‘the sinners’ has replaced the second person ‘you’ pronominalisation. The interrogative sentence is the response to the conditional as in the case where you might say ‘If I come to you what would you give me?’; the intention here is to provoke terror in them in other words how awful is that which they seek to hasten!
أَثُمَّ إِذَا مَا وَقَعَ ءَامَنتُم بِهِۦٓ ءَآلْـَٰٔنَ وَقَدْ كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ
Asumma izaa maa waqa'a aamantum bih; aaal'aana wa qad kuntum bihee tasta'jiloon
Then is it that when it has [actually] occurred you will believe in it? Now? And you were [once] for it impatient
کیا جب وہ آ واقع ہوگا تب اس پر ایمان لاؤ گے (اس وقت کہا جائے گا کہ) اور اب (ایمان لائے؟) اس کے لیے تو تم جلدی مچایا کرتے تھے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Is it only then when it has come to pass when it has befallen you that you will believe therein? that is in God or it means in the chastisement when it has come down the use of hamza in a-thumma ‘is it then’ is to deny the possibility of deferrment of chastisement in other words it your belief will not be accepted from you in that instance and it will be said to you Now do you believe when until now you have been hastening it on?’ in mockery of it.
ثُمَّ قِيلَ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذُوقُوا۟ عَذَابَ ٱلْخُلْدِ هَلْ تُجْزَوْنَ إِلَّا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْسِبُونَ
Summa qeela lillazeena zalamoo zooqoo 'azaabal khuld hal tujzawna illaa bimaa kuntum taksiboon
Then it will be said to those who had wronged, "Taste the punishment of eternity; are you being recompensed except for what you used to earn?"
پھر ظالم لوگوں سے کہا جائے گا کہ عذاب دائمی کا مزہ چکھو۔ (اب) تم انہیں (اعمال) کا بدلہ پاؤ گے جو (دنیا میں) کرتے رہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Then will it be said to those who were evildoers ‘Taste the everlasting chastisement! that is the one in which you shall abide. Are you you are not requited for anything but the requital of what you used to earn?’
وَيَسْتَنۢبِـُٔونَكَ أَحَقٌّ هُوَ قُلْ إِى وَرَبِّىٓ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّ وَمَآ أَنتُم بِمُعْجِزِينَ
Wa yastambi'oonaka ahaqqun huwa qul ee wa Rabbeee innahoo lahaqq; wa maaa antum bimu'jizeen
And they ask information of you, [O Muhammad], "Is it true?" Say, "Yes, by my Lord. Indeed, it is truth; and you will not cause failure [to Allah]."
اور تم سے دریافت کرتے ہیں کہ آیا یہ سچ ہے۔ کہہ دو ہاں خدا کی قسم سچ ہے اور تم (بھاگ کر خدا کو) عاجز نہیں کرسکو گے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And they ask you to tell to inform them ‘Is it true?’ that which you promise us in the way of chastisement and resurrection? Say ‘Aye indeed by my Lord! Verily it is true and you cannot escape’ you cannot elude the chastisement.
وَلَوْ أَنَّ لِكُلِّ نَفْسٍ ظَلَمَتْ مَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ لَٱفْتَدَتْ بِهِۦ وَأَسَرُّوا۟ ٱلنَّدَامَةَ لَمَّا رَأَوُا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ وَقُضِىَ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
Wa law anna likulli nafsin zalamat maa fil ardi laftadat bih; wa asarrun nadaamata lammaa ra awul 'azaab, wa qudiya bainahum bilqist; wa hum laa yuzlamoon
And if each soul that wronged had everything on earth, it would offer it in ransom. And they will confide regret when they see the punishment; and they will be judged in justice, and they will not be wronged
اور اگر ہر ایک نافرمان شخص کے پاس روئے زمین کی تمام چیزیں ہوں تو (عذاب سے بچنے کے) بدلے میں (سب) دے ڈالے اور جب وہ عذاب کو دیکھیں گے تو (پچھتائیں گے اور) ندامت کو چھپائیں گے۔ اور ان میں انصاف کے ساتھ فیصلہ کر دیا جائے گا اور (کسی طرح کا) ان پر ظلم نہیں ہوگا
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And if each soul that has done wrong that has disbelieved had all that is in the earth of riches it would offer it as ransom against chastisement on the Day of Resurrection; and they will feel remorse within them for having neglected faith when they see the chastisement their leaders keep it their remorse secret from the weak ones whom they had led astray fearing reproach but it has been decided justly between them between all creatures and they are not wronged in anything.
أَلَآ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ أَلَآ إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
Alaaa inna lillaahi maa fis samaawaati wal ard; alaaa inna wa'dal laahi haqqunw wa laakinna aksarahum laa ya'lamoon
Unquestionably, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth. Unquestionably, the promise of Allah is truth, but most of them do not know
سن رکھو جو کچھ آسمانوں اور زمینوں میں ہے سب خدا ہی کا ہے۔ اور یہ بھی سن رکھو کہ خدا کا وعدہ سچا ہے لیکن اکثر لوگ نہیں جانتے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Why surely to God belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Why surely God’s promise of resurrection and requital is true is fixed but most of them people do not know this.

They have said, "Allah has taken a son." Exalted is He; He is the [one] Free of need. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. You have no authority for this [claim]. Do you say about Allah that which you do not know?
(بعض لوگ) کہتے ہیں کہ خدا نے بیٹا بنا لیا ہے۔ اس کی ذات (اولاد سے) پاک ہے (اور) وہ بےنیاز ہے۔ جو کچھ آسمانوں میں ہے اور جو کچھ زمین میں ہے وہ سب اسی کا ہے (اے افتراء پردازو) تمہارے پاس اس (قول باطل) کی کوئی دلیل نہیں ہے۔ تم خدا کی نسبت ایسی بات کیوں کہتے ہو جو جانتے نہیں
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
They that is the Jews and the Christians and those who claim that the angels are the daughters of God say ‘God has taken to Him a son’.

To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth as possessions creatures and servants. You have no warrant no proof for this that you say. Do you say about God what you do not know? an interrogative meant as a rebuke.

And Moses said, "Our Lord, indeed You have given Pharaoh and his establishment splendor and wealth in the worldly life, our Lord, that they may lead [men] astray from Your way. Our Lord, obliterate their wealth and harden their hearts so that they will not believe until they see the painful punishment."
اور موسیٰ نے کہا اے ہمارے پروردگار تو نے فرعون اور اس کے سرداروں کو دنیا کی زندگی میں (بہت سا) سازو برگ اور مال وزر دے رکھا ہے۔ اے پروردگار ان کا مال یہ ہے کہ تیرے رستے سے گمراہ کردیں۔ اے پروردگار ان کے مال کو برباد کردے اور ان کے دلوں کو سخت کردے کہ ایمان نہ لائیں جب تک عذاب الیم نہ دیکھ لیں

And We took the Children of Israel across the sea, and Pharaoh and his soldiers pursued them in tyranny and enmity until, when drowning overtook him, he said, "I believe that there is no deity except that in whom the Children of Israel believe, and I am of the Muslims."
اور ہم نے بنی اسرائیل کو دریا سے پار کردیا تو فرعون اور اس کے لشکر نے سرکشی اور تعدی سے ان کا تعاقب کیا۔ یہاں تک کہ جب اس کو غرق (کے عذاب) نے آپکڑا تو کہنے لگا کہ میں ایمان لایا کہ جس (خدا) پر بنی اسرائیل ایمان لائے ہیں اس کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں اور میں فرمانبرداروں میں ہوں
