40:25

إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَٰمَٰنَ وَقَٰرُونَ فَقَالُوا۟ سَٰحِرٌ كَذَّابٌ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

Unto Pharaoh and Haman and Korah; but they said, ‘He is a magician and an impostor.’

English - Five Volume Translation

[d]Unto Pharaoh and Haman and Korah; but they said, ‘He is a lying sorcerer.’[3512]

28:77; 29:40.

Commentary:

For Korah and Haman see 28:7, 77. Every Prophet of God had had his Pharaoh, Haman and Korah. These names respectively may symbolise political power, priesthood and material wealth, as Haman was the head of priestly class, and Korah an extremely rich man among Pharaoh’s nobles. Unlimited political power, servile priesthood and uncontrolled capitalism are the three evils which have ever retarded and arrested the political, economic, moral and spiritual growth of a people, and naturally it is against these enemies of man that Heavenly Reformers have waged relentless war in every age.

English - Short Commentary Translation

Unto Pharaoh and Haman and Korah;[2601] but they said, ‘He is a sorcerer and a great liar.’

For Korah and Haman see {2198} and {2231}. Every Prophet of God had had his Pharaoh, Haman and Korah. These names respectively may symbolise power, priesthood and material wealth, as Haman was the head of priestly class, and Korah an extremely rich man among Pharaoh’s nobles. Unlimited political power, servile priesthood and uncontrolled capitalism are the three evils which have ever retarded and arrested the political, economic, moral and spiritual growth of a people, and naturally it is against these enemies of man that Heavenly Reformers have waged relentless war in every age.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

فرعون اور ہامان اور قارون کی طرف ۔ پس انہوں نے کہا یہ تو جادوگر (اور) بہت جھوٹا ہے۔

French

Vers Pharaon et Hāmān et Korah ; mais ils dirent : « C’est un magicien et un grand menteur ! »

German

zu Pharao und Hâmân und Korah; jedoch sie sprachen: "Ein Zauberer, ein Betrüger!"

Chinese

到法老、哈曼、卡荣[1160]那里, 他们说: “他是魔术师和很虚假的人。”

安拉派遣的每一个先知都会碰到自己的法老、哈曼 (هَامَان, Haman) 和卡荣 (قَارُوْن, Qarun)。这些名字分别象征权力、祭司职位和物质财富, 因为哈曼是祭司阶层的首领, 卡荣是法老贵族中极端有钱的人。无限的政治权力、奴隶般的祭司职位和无法控制的资本主义, 是迟延和阻止一个民族政治、经济和精神道德发展的三害, 因而, 很自然地在每一个时代安拉所派遣的改革家进行无情战争来反对的就是这些人类的敌人。

Italian

al Faraone, ad Haman e a Korah. Ma costoro dissero: «Non è che uno stregone e un impostore.»

Spanish

Al Faraón, Haman y Korah; pero dijeron: “Es un mago y un impostor”.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

فرعون اور ہامان اور قارون کی طرف بھیجا[1] تھا مگر انہوں نے کہا یہ شخص دھوکہ دینے والا (اور) جھوٹا ہے۔

فرعون تو بادشاہ تھا ہی‘ ہامان بھی اس کا انجینئر اِن چیف تھا اور غالباً ملک میں بہت بارسوخ تھا۔ قارون خود بنی اسرائیل سے تھا مگر فرعون نے اس کو خزانوں پر مقرر کیا ہوا تھا۔ گویا ریونیو کا افسر تھا اس لئے اس کا اثر بھی قوم پر بہت تھا۔ اسی وجہ سے تینوں نام اکٹھے کیے گئے ہیں۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

فرعون اور ہامان اور قارون کی طرف اپنے نشانیوں اور نمایاں سندِ ماموریت کے ساتھ بھیجا، مگر انہوں نے کہا "ساحر ہے، کذاب ہے"

English - Sahih

To Pharaoh, Haman and Qarun; but they said, "[He is] a magician and a liar."
