59:22

لَوْ أَنزَلْنَا هَٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ عَلَىٰ جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيْتَهُۥ خَٰشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ وَتِلْكَ ٱلْأَمْثَٰلُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

If We had sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, thou wouldst certainly have seen it humbled and rent asunder for fear of Allah. And these are similitudes that We set forth for mankind that they may reflect.

English - Five Volume Translation

If We had sent down this Quran on a mountain[c], thou wouldst certainly have seen it humbled and rent asunder for fear of Allah. And these are similitudes that We set forth for mankind that they may reflect.[4206]

13:32.

Commentary:

Metaphorically, the word جبل signifies a big and proud man; the chief or leader of a people. In this sense of the word the verse would mean that the Quran contains such a sublime and powerful Message that it would make the heart of even a proud man melt. Or the verse may signify that the proud pagan Arabs whom no pre-Islamic teaching could wean from their polytheistic beliefs and idolatrous practices and who like a strong rock remained unmoved and firmly wedded to their Bedouin usages unaffected by the erosive influence of the glamour and glitter of the neighbouring Christian civilization, would be humbled before its sublime and powerful Message, and from their stony hearts would gush forth fountains of light and learning.

[b]If We had sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, thou wouldst, certainly, have seen it humbled and rent asunder[3027A] for fear of Allah. And these are similitudes that We set forth for mankind that they may reflect.

13:32.

The verse may signify that the proud pagan Arabs whom no pre- Islamic teaching could wean from their polytheistic beliefs and idolatrous practices and who, like a strong rock, remained unmoved and firmly wedded to their Bedouin usages, unaffected by the corrosive influence of the glamour and glitter of the neighbouring Christian civilization, would be humbled before the sublime and powerful Message of Islam, and from their erstwhile stony hearts would gush forth fountains of light and learning.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اگر ہم نے اِس قرآن کو کسی پہاڑ پر اتارا ہوتا تو تُو ضرور دیکھتا کہ وہ اللہ کے خوف سے عجز اختیار کرتے ہوئے ٹکڑے ٹکڑے ہوجاتا۔ اور یہ تمثیلات ہیں جو ہم لوگوں کے لئے بیان کرتے ہیں تاکہ وہ تفکّر کریں۔

French

Si Nous avions envoyé ce Coran sur une montagne, tu l’aurais certainement vu s’humilier et se fendre en morceaux par crainte d’Allāh. Et ce sont des similitudes que Nous proposons aux hommes afin qu’ils réfléchissent.

German

Hätten Wir diesen Qur-ân auf einen Berg herabgesandt, du hättest gesehen, wie er sich demütigte und sich spaltete aus Furcht vor Allah. Solche Gleichnisse stellen Wir für die Menschen, auf dass sie sich besinnen.

Chinese

[c]假如我把这部 «古兰经» 降于某座山, 那你一定看见那座山(出于尊敬安拉) 卑躬, 由于惧怕安拉粉碎。这些是我为人类所设的比喻, 以便他们思考。

13:32.

Italian

Se Noi avessimo fatto scendere il Corano su di un monte, certamente tu lo avresti visto umiliarsi e spaccarsi nel timore di Allah. E queste sono le similitudini che Noi proponiamo all'umanità, perché rifletta.

Spanish

Si hubiésemos revelado este Corán en un monte, ciertamente lo hubieras visto humillado y hecho pedazos por temor a Al-lah. Éstos son ejemplos que proponemos a los humanos para que reflexionen.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اگر یہ قرآن ہم کسی پہاڑ[2] پر نازل کرتے تو تو اسے دیکھتا کہ وہ (ادب سے) جھک جاتا اور اللہ کے ڈر سے ٹکڑے ٹکڑے ہو جاتا۔ اور یہ باتیں جو ہم (تجھ سے) کہتے ہیں یہ سب انسانوں کے لئے ہیں تا کہ وہ سوچیں۔

اس آیت میں جو پہاڑ کا لفظ آتا ہے‘ اس سے مراد درحقیقت ایسے لوگ ہیں جو اپنی قوم میں پہاڑ کی حیثیت رکھتے ہیں۔ پس پہاڑ سے مراد پتھروں کے پہاڑ نہیں۔ بلکہ فرماتا ہے کہ قرآن کریم کے اندر جو خشیۃ اللہ کی تعلیم ہے اگر یہ ایک بڑی سے بڑی وجاہت والے آدمی پر بھی نازل ہوتی تو وہ شخص بھی خداتعالیٰ کے سامنے ٹکڑے ہو کر گر جاتا۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اگر ہم نے یہ قرآن کسی پہاڑ پر بھی اتار دیا ہوتا تو تم دیکھتے کہ وہ اللہ کے خوف سے دبا جا رہا ہے اور پھٹا پڑتا ہے یہ مثالیں ہم لوگوں کے سامنے اس لیے بیان کرتے ہیں کہ وہ (اپنی حالت پر) غور کریں

English - Sahih

If We had sent down this Qur'an upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and coming apart from fear of Allah. And these examples We present to the people that perhaps they will give thought.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اگر ہم اس قرآن کو کسی پہاڑ پرنازل کرتے تو آپ اسے دیکھتے کہ الله کے خوف سے جھک کر پھٹ جاتا اور ہم یہ مثالیں لوگوں کے لیے بیان کرتے ہیں تاکہ وہ غور کریں

English - Talal Itani

If We (had) sent down this Quran on a mountain, surely you (would) have seen it humbled, breaking asunder from (the) fear (of) Allah. And these examples, We present them to the people so that they may give thought.
