40:79

وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلًا مِّن قَبْلِكَ مِنْهُم مَّن قَصَصْنَا عَلَيْكَ وَمِنْهُم مَّن لَّمْ نَقْصُصْ عَلَيْكَ ۗ وَمَا كَانَ لِرَسُولٍ أَن يَأْتِىَ بِـَٔايَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَمْرُ ٱللَّهِ قُضِىَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَخَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ ٱلْمُبْطِلُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And We did send Messengers before thee; of them are some whom We have mentioned to thee, and of them there are some whom We have not mentioned to thee; and it is not possible for any Messenger to bring a Sign except by the leave of Allah. But when Allah’s decree came, the matter was decided with truth, and then there perished those who uttered falsehoods.

English - Five Volume Translation

And We did send Messengers before thee; [a]of them are some whom We have mentioned to thee, and of them are some whom We have not mentioned to thee; [b]and it is not possible for any Messenger to bring a Sign except by the leave of Allah. But when Allah’s decree comes, the matter is decided with truth, and then there perish those who utter falsehoods.[3549]

4:165.

13:39; 14:12.

Commentary:

The verse purports to say that though the prophecies containing warnings and threats meant for disbelievers are subject to postponement, revocation or cancel-lation, yet, if by closing the door of repentance, the disbelievers make themselves deserving of Divine punishment they are punished. But it is not for the Prophet to say when and how they are to be punished.

English - Short Commentary Translation

And We, indeed, sent Messengers before thee; [d]of them are some whom We have mentioned to thee; and of them are some whom We have not mentioned to thee, [a]and it is not possible for any Messenger to bring a Sign except by the leave of Allah.[2618] But when Allah’s decree comes, the matter is decided with justice and then there perish those who utter falsehoods.

13:39; 14:12.

4:165.

Though the prophecies containing warnings and threats meant for disbelievers are subject to postponement, revocation or cancellation, yet if, by closing the door of repentance upon themselves, they make themselves deserving of Divine punishment, they are punished. But it is not for the Prophet to say when and how they will be punished.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور یقیناً ہم نے تجھ سے پہلے بھی پیغمبر بھیجے تھے بعض ان میں سے ایسے تھے جن کا ذکر ہم نے تجھ سے کردیا ہے اور بعض ان میں سے ایسے تھے جن کا ہم نے تجھ سے ذکر نہیں کیا۔ اور کسی رسول کے لئے ممکن نہیں کہ وہ اللہ کے اذن کے بغیر کوئی نشان لے آئے۔ پس جب اللہ کا حکم آجائے گا تو حق کے ساتھ فیصلہ کردیا جائے گا اور اس وقت جھٹلانے والے گھاٹا پائیں گے۔

French

Et Nous avons en effet envoyé des Messagers avant toi ; il en est dont Nous t’avons fait mention, et il en est dont Nous ne t’avons pas fait mention ; et il n’est possible à aucun Messager d’apporter un Signe, excepté avec la permission d’Allāh. Mais lorsque arrive le décret d’Allāh, l’affaire est jugée avec justice, et alors ceux qui contredisent la vérité seront les perdants.

German

Und sicherlich entsandten Wir schon Gesandte vor dir; darunter sind manche, von denen Wir dir bereits erzählten, und es sind darunter manche, von denen Wir dir noch nicht erzählten; und kein Gesandter hätte ein Zeichen* bringen können ohne Allahs Erlaubnis. Doch wenn Allahs Befehl ergeht, da wird die Sache zu Recht entschieden, und dann sind die verloren, die der Falschheit folgen.

Chinese

在你之前, 我确已派遣了使者, [e]他们中有些我已向你说起, 有些我未曾向你提及。[f]除非有安拉的许可, 任何使者都不可能带来迹象。当安拉的命令[1173]到来时, 事情要依真理得到判决, 那时, 说谎者将遭受损失。

4:165.

13:39; 14:12.

虽然对不信者具有警告和威吓作用的预言是可以延迟、撤回或取消的, 但是不信者如果给自己关上悔过之门, 那么, 他们就使自己应受安拉的惩罚, 他们就会受到惩罚。但是, 他们在何时和如何将被惩罚, 这却不是先知可以决定的事情。

Italian

E Noi, invero, mandammo messaggeri prima di te. Tra loro ve ne sono alcuni di cui ti abbiamo parlato e tra loro ve ne sono alcuni di cui non ti abbiamo parlato; e non è possibile che un messaggero porti un segno se non con il permesso di Allah. Ma una volta pronunciato il decreto di Allah, la questione viene decisa con verità, e quindi periscono quanti dicono menzogne.

Spanish

Enviamos Mensajeros antes de ti; de ellos hay algunos que te hemos mencionado y otros que no te hemos mencionado; mas no es posible que ningún Mensajero traiga un Signo excepto con permiso de Al-lah. Pero cuando llegó el decreto de Al-lah, el asunto se decidió con verdad, y se convirtieron en perdedores quienes falsificaron la verdad.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور ہم نے تجھ سے پہلے کئی رسول بھیجے تھے بعض کا ذکر ہم نے تیرے سامنے کر دیا ہے اور بعض کا ذکر ہم نے تیرے سامنے نہیں کیا اور کسی رسول کی یہ طاقت نہیں کہ خدا کے حکم کے بغیر کوئی کلام لے آئے اور جب اللہ کا حکم آجاتا ہے تو حق کے مطابق فیصلہ کر دیا جاتا ہے اور جھوٹ بولنے والے لوگ گھاٹے میں پڑ جاتے ہیں۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اے نبیؐ، تم سے پہلے ہم بہت سے رسول بھیج چکے ہیں جن میں سے بعض کے حالات ہم نے تم کو بتائے ہیں اور بعض کے نہیں بتائے کسی رسول کی بھی یہ طاقت نہ تھی کہ اللہ کے اذن کے بغیر خود کوئی نشانی لے آتا پھر جب اللہ کا حکم آگیا تو حق کے مطابق فیصلہ کر دیا گیا اور اُس وقت غلط کار لوگ خسارے میں پڑ گئے

English - Sahih

And We have already sent messengers before you. Among them are those [whose stories] We have related to you, and among them are those [whose stories] We have not related to you. And it was not for any messenger to bring a sign [or verse] except by permission of Allah. So when the command of Allah comes, it will be concluded in truth, and the falsifiers will thereupon lose [all].

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اورہم نے آپ سے پہلے کئی رسول بھیجے تھے بعض ان میں سے وہ ہیں جن کا حال ہم نے آپ پر بیان کر دیا اور بعض وہ ہیں کہ ہم نے آپ پر انکا حال بیان نہیں کیا اور کسی رسول سے یہ نہ ہو سکا کہ کوئی معجزہ اذنِ الہیٰ کے سوا ظاہر کر سکے پھر جس وقت الله کا حکم آئے گا ٹھیک فیصلہ ہو جائے گا اوراس وقت باطل پرست نقصان اٹھائیں گے

English - Talal Itani

And certainly We have sent Messengers before you. Among them (are) who - We have related to you, and among them (are) who - not We have related to you. And not is for any Messenger that he brings a Sign except by (the) permission (of) Allah. So when comes (the) Command (of) Allah, it will be decided in truth, and will lose there the falsifiers.

اردہ تفصیرِ صغیر نوٹس ^*

English - Arberry

We sent Messengers before thee; of some We have related to thee, and some We have not related to thee. It was not for any Messenger to bring a sign, save by God's leave. When God's command comes, justly the issue shall be decided; then the vain-doers shall be lost.

English - Maududi

Indeed We sent many Messengers before you: of them there are some whose account We have narrated to you and there are others whose account We have not narrated to you. It did not lie in any Messenger's power to bring any Sign except with Allah's leave. So when Allah's decree came, the matter was decided with justice, and those steeped in error courted utter loss, then and there.

English - Ahmed Ali

Surely We have sent apostles before you, some of whose account We have related to you, and that of some We have not told you. But no apostle was given a miracle unless God dispensed. But when the decree of God comes the sentence is passed with justice; and the lovers of vice and vanity will then come to grief.

English - Yusuf Ali

We did aforetime send messengers before thee: of them there are some whose story We have related to thee, and some whose story We have not related to thee. It was not (possible) for any messenger to bring a sign except by the leave of Allah: but when the Command of Allah issued, the matter was decided in truth and justice, and there perished, there and then those who stood on Falsehoods.

English - Pickthall

Verily We sent messengers before thee, among them those of whom We have told thee, and some of whom We have not told thee; and it was not given to any messenger that he should bring a portent save by Allah's leave, but when Allah's commandment cometh (the cause) is judged aright, and the followers of vanity will then be lost.

English - Muhammad Ali ^ra

And certainly We sent messengers before thee -- of them are those We have mentioned to thee and of them are those We have not mentioned to thee. Nor was it possible for a messenger to bring a sign except with Allah’s permission; so when Allah’s command comes, judgment is given with truth, and those who treat (it) as a lie are lost.

English - Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan ^ra

We did send Messengers before thee; of them are those that We have mentioned to thee, and of them are those that We have not mentioned to thee. It behoves not a Messenger to bring a Sign except by the leave of Allah. When Allah’s decree goes forth, the matter is settled with justice, and those who pursue falsehood are the losers.
