40:11

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُنَادَوْنَ لَمَقْتُ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ مِن مَّقْتِكُمْ أَنفُسَكُمْ إِذْ تُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى ٱلْإِيمَٰنِ فَتَكْفُرُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

An announcement will be made to those who disbelieve in the words: ‘Greater was the abhorrence of Allah when you were called to the faith and you disbelieved than your own abhorrence of yourselves today.’

English - Five Volume Translation

Those who disbelieve will be told, ‘Greater was the abhorrence of Allah when you were called to the faith and you disbelieved than your abhorrence of yourselves today.’[3502]

Commentary:

It is human nature that when a person is confronted with the evil consequences of his bad deeds, he begins to curse himself. It is to this aspect of the nature of man that reference is made in this verse. The disbelievers are told that when they are face to face with punishment they feel disgusted with themselves. But they should know that the Merciful and Gracious God was more disgusted with them when they rejected His Message and opposed and persecuted His Messengers.

English - Short Commentary Translation

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

یقیناً وہ لوگ جنہوں نے کفر کیا اُنہیں پکارا جائے گا کہ اللہ کی ناراضگی تمہاری آپس کی ناراضگیوں کے مقابل پر زیادہ بڑی تھی۔ جس وقت تم ایمان کی طرف بلائے جاتے تھے پھر بھی انکار کر دیتے تھے۔

French

A ceux qui ne croient pas, l’annonce suivante sera faite : « Bien plus grand était l’aversion d’Allāh lorsque vous étiez invités vers la foi mais aviez refusé, que votre propre aversion pour vous-mêmes maintenant. »

German

Den Ungläubigen wird zugerufen: "Allahs Widerwille ist größer als euer eigener Widerwille gegen euch. (Gedenket,) da ihr zum Glauben aufgerufen wurdet und im Unglauben verharrtet."

Chinese

那些不信的人 (死后) 将被告知: “当你们受召信仰 (安拉) 而你们不信时, 安拉 (那时) 对于你们的憎恶甚于 (今日) 你们对自己的憎恶。”[1155]

人的本性是, 当他遇到他恶事所引出的不幸后果时, 开始咒骂自己。不信的人被告知说, 他们要面临惩罚时, 他们觉得厌恶他们自己。可是永久仁慈和无限博爱的安拉在他们拒绝他的教义以及反对和迫害他的使者时, 更加憎恨他们。

Italian

Di Sicuro, a quanti non credono sarà fatto un richiamo: «Quando, chiamati alla fede, non avete creduto, la ripugnanza di Allah per voi è stata più grande di quanto non sia la ripugnanza che voi oggi nutrite per voi stessi.»

Spanish

Ciertamente se hará una llamada a los incrédulos: “La aversión de Al-lah es mayor que vuestro mutuo aborrecimiento cuando fuisteis llamados a creer y rehusasteis”.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور کافروں کو یقیناً (موت کے بعد) کہا جائے گا کہ آج تم جتنا بھی اپنی جانوں کو نفرت کی نگاہ سے دیکھتے ہو اللہ کی نفرت (جو وہ تم سے کرتا ہے) اس سے زیادہ ہے (یاد کرو) جب تمہیں ایمان کی طرف پکارا جاتا تھا تو تم کفر کرتے تھے۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

جن لوگوں نے کفر کیا ہے، قیامت کے روز اُن کو پکار کر کہا جائے گا "آج تمہیں جتنا شدید غصہ اپنے اوپر آ رہا ہے، اللہ تم پر اُس سے زیادہ غضب ناک اُس وقت ہوتا تھا جب تمہیں ایمان کی طرف بلایا جاتا تھا اور تم کفر کرتے تھے"

English - Sahih

Indeed, those who disbelieve will be addressed, "The hatred of Allah for you was [even] greater than your hatred of yourselves [this Day in Hell] when you were invited to faith, but you refused."

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

بے شک جو لوگ کافر ہیں انہیں پکار کر کہا جائے گا جیسی تمہیں (اس وقت) اپنے سے نفرت ہے اس سے بڑھ کر الله کو (تم سے) نفرت تھی جبکہ تم ایمان کی طرف بلائے جاتے تھے پھر نہیں مانا کرتے تھے
