41:16

فَأَمَّا عَادٌ فَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ بِغَيْرِ ٱلْحَقِّ وَقَالُوا۟ مَنْ أَشَدُّ مِنَّا قُوَّةً ۖ أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَهُمْ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُمْ قُوَّةً ۖ وَكَانُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا يَجْحَدُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

As for ‘Ad, they behaved arrogantly in the earth without any justification and said, ‘Who is mightier than we in power?’ Do they not see that Allah, Who created them, is mightier than they in power? Still they continued to deny Our Signs.

English - Short Commentary Translation

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

پس رہے عاد، تو انہوں نے زمین میں ناحق تکبر سے کام لیا اور کہا کون ہے جو ہم سے قوّت میں زیادہ شدید ہے؟ کیا انہوں نے دیکھا نہیں کہ اللہ جس نے انہیں پیدا کیا اُن سے قوّت میں شدید تر ہے اور وہ مسلسل ہمارے نشانات کا انکار کرتے رہے؟

French

Quant aux ‘Ād, ils se comportèrent avec arrogance sur la terre sans justification, et dirent : « Qui est plus fort que nous ? » Ne voient-ils pas qu’Allāh, Qui les a créés, est plus fort qu’eux ? Mais ils continuèrent à nier Nos Signes.

German

Was nun die ´Âd anlangt, so betrugen sie sich hoffärtig auf Erden ohne Recht und sprachen: "Wer ist stärker als wir an Macht?" Konnten sie denn nicht sehen, dass Allah, Der sie erschuf, stärker an Macht war als sie? Jedoch sie fuhren fort, Unsere Zeichen zu leugnen.

Chinese

至于阿德人, 他们在大地上无理由地举止骄傲自大, 他们说: “谁比我们力量更强大?” 难道他们没曾看到那创造了他们的安拉不比他们的力量更强大? 可是他们仍旧继续拒绝我的迹象。

Italian

Quanto agli ‘Ad, essi si comportarono con arroganza sulla terra, senza motivo alcuno, e dissero: «Chi è più potente di noi?» Non vedono che Allah, che li ha creati, è più potente di loro? Eppure, continuarono a negare i Nostri segni.

Spanish

En cuanto a Ad, se comportaron con arrogancia en la tierra sin justificación alguna y dijeron: “¿quién es más fuerte que nosotros en poder?”. Acaso no ven que Al-lah, que los creó, es más fuerte que ellos en poderío? Y sin embargo continúan negando Nuestros Signos.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور عاد کی قوم نے زمین میں بغیر کسی حق کے تکبر سے کام لیا اور کہا‘ ہم سے زیادہ قوت میں کون ہے کیا انہوں نے دیکھا نہیں کہ جس خدا نے ان کو پیدا کیا ہے۔ وہ ان سے زیادہ طاقتور ہے اور وہ ہماری آیتوں کا بضد انکار کرتے تھے۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

عاد کا حال یہ تھا کہ وہ زمین میں کسی حق کے بغیر بڑے بن بیٹھے اور کہنے لگے "کون ہے ہم سے زیادہ زور آور" اُن کو یہ نہ سوجھا کہ جس خدا نے ان کو پیدا کیا ہے وہ ان سے زیادہ زور آور ہے؟ وہ ہماری آیات کا انکار ہی کرتے رہے

English - Sahih

As for 'Aad, they were arrogant upon the earth without right and said, "Who is greater than us in strength?" Did they not consider that Allah who created them was greater than them in strength? But they were rejecting Our signs.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

پس قوم عاد نے زمین میں ناحق تکبر کیا اورکہا ہم سے طاقت میں کون زیادہ ہے کیا انہوں نے دیکھا نہیں کہ الله جس نے انہیں پیدا کیا ہے وہ ان سے طاقت میں کہیں بڑھ کر ہے وہ ہماری آیتوں کا انکار کرتے رہے

English - Talal Itani

Then as for Aad, they were arrogant in the land without [the] right and they said, "Who (is) mightier than us (in) strength?" Do not they see that Allah, the One Who created them, He (is) Mightier than them (in) strength? But they used to, in Our Signs, deny.
