It is He who has sent among the unlettered a Messenger from themselves reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book and wisdom - although they were before in clear error -
وہی تو ہے جس نے ان پڑھوں میں ان ہی میں سے (محمدﷺ) کو پیغمبر (بنا کر) بھیجا جو ان کے سامنے اس کی آیتیں پڑھتے اور ان کو پاک کرتے اور (خدا کی) کتاب اور دانائی سکھاتے ہیں۔ اور اس ے پہلے تو یہ لوگ صریح گمراہی میں تھے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
It is He Who sent to the unlettered folk among the Arabs ummī means ‘one who cannot write or read a book’ a messenger from among them namely Muhammad (s) to recite to them His signs the Qur’ān and to purify them to cleanse them from idolatry and to teach them the Book the Qur’ān and wisdom in the rulings that it contains though indeed wa-in in has been softened from the hardened form with its subject having been omitted that is to say understand it as wa-innahum before that before his coming they had been in manifest error.
وَءَاخَرِينَ مِنْهُمْ لَمَّا يَلْحَقُوا۟ بِهِمْ وَهُوَ ٱلْعَزِيزُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ
Wa aakhareena minhum lammaa yalhaqoo bihim wa huwal 'azeezul hakeem
And [to] others of them who have not yet joined them. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.
اور ان میں سے اور لوگوں کی طرف بھی (ان کو بھیجا ہے) جو ابھی ان (مسلمانوں سے) نہیں ملے۔ اور وہ غالب حکمت والا ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And to others wa-ākharīna is a supplement to al-ummiyyīna ‘the unlettered’ that is to say those who are alive from among them and to those of them who will come after them who have not yet joined them with regard to precedence and merit; and He is the Mighty the Wise in His kingdom and in His actions those mentioned as coming afterwards are the Successors al-tābi‘ūna; and it suffices to mention these Successors in order to illustrate the greater merit of the Companions among whom the Prophet s was sent over all those others of humans and jinn to whom he was also sent and who believed and will believe in him up until the Day of Resurrection for every generation is better than the succeeding one.
ذَٰلِكَ فَضْلُ ٱللَّهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَن يَشَآءُ وَٱللَّهُ ذُو ٱلْفَضْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

The example of those who were entrusted with the Torah and then did not take it on is like that of a donkey who carries volumes [of books]. Wretched is the example of the people who deny the signs of Allah. And Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people.
جن لوگوں (کے سر) پر تورات لدوائی گئی پھر انہوں نے اس (کے بار تعمیل) کو نہ اٹھایا ان کی مثال گدھے کی سی ہے جن پر بڑی بڑی کتابیں لدی ہوں۔ جو لوگ خدا کی آیتوں کی تکذیب کرتے ہیں ان کی مثال بری ہے۔ اور خدا ظالم لوگوں کو ہدایت نہیں دیتا
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
The likeness of those who were entrusted with the Torah those who were charged with implementing it then failed to uphold it then failed to act in accordance with it in what pertains to the descriptions of the Prophet s and so did not believe in him is as the likeness of an ass carrying books in that it does not benefit from them. Evil is the likeness of the people who deny God’s signs those confirming the truth of the Prophet s — the object of rebuke is omitted but is implied to be hādhā’l-mathalu ‘this likeness’. And God does not guide the evildoing folk the disbelievers.
قُلْ يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ هَادُوٓا۟ إِن زَعَمْتُمْ أَنَّكُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ لِلَّهِ مِن دُونِ ٱلنَّاسِ فَتَمَنَّوُا۟ ٱلْمَوْتَ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ

کہہ دو کہ اے یہود اگر تم کو دعویٰ ہو کہ تم ہی خدا کے دوست ہو اور لوگ نہیں تو اگر تم سچے ہو تو (ذرا) موت کی آرزو تو کرو
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Say ‘O you of Jewry if you claim that you are the favoured friends of God to the exclusion of other people then long for death if you are truthful’ in kuntum sādiqīna is semantically connected to tamannū ‘long for’; as for the two conditions the first is dependent on the second that is to say if you are truthful in your claim that you are the favoured friends of God and given that such a friend would prefer the Hereafter to this world and that it the Hereafter begins at death then long for it.
وَلَا يَتَمَنَّوْنَهُۥٓ أَبَدًۢا بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Wa laa yatamannaw nahooo abadam bimaa qaddamat aydeehim; wallaahu 'aleemum bix zaalimeen
