And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And if a heavily laden soul calls [another] to [carry some of] its load, nothing of it will be carried, even if he should be a close relative. You can only warn those who fear their Lord unseen and have established prayer. And whoever purifies himself only purifies himself for [the benefit of] his soul. And to Allah is the [final] destination.
اور کوئی اٹھانے والا دوسرے کا بوجھ نہ اٹھائے گا۔ اور کوئی بوجھ میں دبا ہوا اپنا بوجھ بٹانے کو کسی کو بلائے تو کوئی اس میں سے کچھ نہ اٹھائے گا اگرچہ قرابت دار ہی ہو۔ (اے پیغمبر) تم انہی لوگوں کو نصیحت کرسکتے ہو جو بن دیکھے اپنے پروردگار سے ڈرتے اور نماز بالالتزام پڑھتے ہیں۔ اور جو شخص پاک ہوتا ہے اپنے ہی لئے پاک ہوتا ہے۔ اور (سب کو) خدا ہی کی طرف لوٹ کر جانا ہے

And no burdened soul shall bear the burden of another sinful soul. And should one soul burdened heavily with sin call for some of its burden to be borne by another nothing of it will be borne even if the one called be a relative kin such as a father or a son — the impossibility of ‘having something borne by another’ in both instances is something ordained by God. You can only warn those who fear their Lord in secret in other words those who fear Him despite not having seen Him for they are the ones to benefit from the warning and observe the prayer maintain performance of it. For whoever purifies himself cleansing himself of idolatry and other similar abominations is purifying himself only for the sake of his own soul because the reforming of his self pertains to him. And to God is the end of the journeying the return in the Hereafter when He will requite according to deeds.

And they swore by Allah their strongest oaths that if a warner came to them, they would be more guided than [any] one of the [previous] nations. But when a warner came to them, it did not increase them except in aversion.

[Due to] arrogance in the land and plotting of evil; but the evil plot does not encompass except its own people. Then do they await except the way of the former peoples? But you will never find in the way of Allah any change, and you will never find in the way of Allah any alteration.
یعنی (انہوں نے) ملک میں غرور کرنا اور بری چال چلنا (اختیار کیا) اور بری چال کا وبال اس کے چلنے والے ہی پر پڑتا ہے۔ یہ اگلے لوگوں کی روش کے سوا اور کسی چیز کے منتظر نہیں۔ سو تم خدا کی عادت میں ہرگز تبدل نہ پاؤ گے۔ اور خدا کے طریقے میں کبھی تغیر نہ دیکھو گے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
acting with disdain in the land against faith istikbāran fī’l-ardi an object denoting reason and devising acts of evil in the way of idolatry and otherwise; and evil schemes will beset surround only their authors namely the one who devises such evil the qualifying of makr ‘scheme’ with the noun al-sayyi’ ‘evil’ is intrinsic to the fact that it is a scheme and so the annexation of the former to the latter is said to be alternative usage in which the annexed term is implied as a precaution against annexing a noun to an adjective. So do they expect do they await anything but the precedent of the ancients? God’s way of dealing with them such as chastising them for their denial of the messengers? Yet you will never find any change in God’s precedent and you will never find any revision in God’s precedent that is to say chastisement is never replaced by anything else nor is it ever meted out other than to the one who deserves it.

Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those before them? And they were greater than them in power. But Allah is not to be caused failure by anything in the heavens or on the earth. Indeed, He is ever Knowing and Competent.
کیا انہوں نے زمین میں کبھی سیر نہیں کی تاکہ دیکھتے کہ جو لوگ ان سے پہلے تھے ان کا انجام کیا ہوا حالانکہ وہ ان سے قوت میں بہت زیادہ تھے۔ اور خدا ایسا نہیں کہ آسمانوں اور زمین میں کوئی چیز اس کو عاجز کرسکے۔ وہ علم والا (اور) قدرت والا ہے

Have they not travelled in the land and seen the nature of the consequence for those who were before them — and they were mightier than these in power? but still God destroyed them for their denial of the messengers. And God is not such that anything in the heavens or in the earth can escape Him pre-empt Him or elude Him. Truly He is ever Knower of all things Omnipotent.
وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلنَّاسَ بِمَا كَسَبُوا۟ مَا تَرَكَ عَلَىٰ ظَهْرِهَا مِن دَآبَّةٍ وَلَٰكِن يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ بِعِبَادِهِۦ بَصِيرًۢا

And if Allah were to impose blame on the people for what they have earned, He would not leave upon the earth any creature. But He defers them for a specified term. And when their time comes, then indeed Allah has ever been, of His servants, Seeing.
اور اگر خدا لوگوں کو ان کے اعمال کے سبب پکڑنے لگتا۔ تو روئے زمین پر ایک چلنے پھرنے والے کو نہ چھوڑتا۔ لیکن وہ ان کو ایک وقت مقرر تک مہلت دیئے جاتا ہے۔ سو جب ان کا وقت آجائے گا تو (ان کے اعمال کا بدلہ دے گا) خدا تو اپنے بندوں کو دیکھ رہا ہے
Tafsir al-Jalalayn
Were God to take mankind to task for what they have acquired of acts of disobedience He would not leave on its surface that is the earth’s a single creature a single living thing moving thereon. But He reprieves them to an appointed term namely to the Day of Resurrection. And when their term comes — then truly they will know that God is ever Seer of His servants and so He will requite them according to the nature of their deeds rewarding the believers and punishing the disbelievers.
