Surah An-Nasr (110) - النصر | inQuran

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

English - Five Volume Translation

[b]Glorify thy Lord, with His praise, and seek forgiveness of Him. Surely, He is Oft-Returning with compassion.[4862]

15:99; 20:131; 50:40.

Commentary:

The Holy Prophet is here enjoined that since God’s promise has been fulfilled and large masses of people have begun to enter the fold of Islam, he should give thanks to his Lord for fulfilling His promise about victory, sing His praises and seek His protection and forgiveness.

The expression استغفرہ has a very wide significance. The Holy Prophet is here told that since victory has come to him and Islam has become predominant in the land and his erstwhile enemies have become his devoted servants, he should ask God to forgive them the grave wrongs they had done to him in the past. This seems to be the meaning and significance of the injunction to the Holy Prophet to seek God’s forgiveness. Or the Holy Prophet might have been enjoined to ask God’s protection against weaknesses and shortcomings that might find their way into the Muslim Community on account of lack of adequate training or education for the new converts. It is significant that whenever mention is made in the Quran of a destined victory or some great success falling to the Holy Prophet, he is generally told to ask God’s forgiveness and to seek His protection. This clearly shows that he is enjoined here to ask for God’s forgiveness and to seek His protection not for himself but for others; he is asked to pray that whenever there was any danger of his followers deviating from Islamic principles or precepts, God may save them from such a crisis. Thus there is no question here of the Prophet’s asking forgiveness for any of his own actions. According to the Quran, he enjoyed complete immunity from every moral lapse or deviation from the right course (53:3). For a detailed treatment, however, of the word استغفار see 40:56 & 48:3.

The expression, "He is Oft-Returning with compassion," holds a message of hope for the Holy Prophet. He is told that whenever there was any danger of his followers deviating from the path of Islam and falling victims to moral decay on a large scale, God will return to them with compassion and will raise from among them a Reformer who will lead them to the right path.

Spanish

Glorifica a tu Señor con Su alabanza y pide Su perdón. En verdad, El es Remisorio con compasión.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اس وقت تو اپنے رب کی تعریف کے ساتھ (ساتھ) اس کی پاکیزگی بیان کرنے میں بھی مشغول ہو جائیو اور (مسلمانوں کی تربیت میں جو کوتاہیاں ہوئی ہوں ان پر) اس (خدا) سے پردہ ڈالنے کی دعا کیجیئو۔ وہ یقیناً اپنے بندے کی طرف رحمت کے ساتھ لوٹ لوٹ کر آنے والا ہے۔[2]

1810

穆圣在这里得到生命, 既然安拉的许诺实现了, 人们开始大批进入伊斯兰教的羊栏, 他就应该感谢他的养主实现他的许诺并赞颂他的善美之德。

1811

穆圣在这里受告知, 既然胜利已降临于他, 伊斯兰教已在当地占优势, 他以前的敌人成了他虔诚的信徒, 他就应当祈求安拉宽恕他们过去对他所做的严重过失。这似乎就是安拉命穆圣祈求安拉宽恕的含意和意义。也就是说, 穆圣得到主命: 祈求安拉保佑, 以防由于新皈依者缺乏足够的训练和教育, 而导致穆斯林社会中出现弱点和错失。这是很有意义的, 因为 «古兰经» 中无论在哪里提到胜利或其他什么巨大的成就降临于穆圣的时候, 他总是受告知应请求安拉的宽恕并寻求安拉的护佑。这清楚地说明了在这一节经文中, 他也得到主命来祈求安拉的宽恕和寻求安拉的护佑, 那不是为了他自己, 而是为了别人, 就是说, 他得到主命祈求的是, 每当他的信徒有背离伊斯兰教教旨或戒律的危险时, 安拉可以使他们免除这种危机。总之, 此处不是穆圣自己的任何行动而祈求宽宥。根据《古兰经》记载, 他是享受完全免除多种道德的失足和偏离正道之乐的。另见注释1168。
