6:42

بَلْ إِيَّاهُ تَدْعُونَ فَيَكْشِفُ مَا تَدْعُونَ إِلَيْهِ إِن شَآءَ وَتَنسَوْنَ مَا تُشْرِكُونَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

Nay, but on Him alone will you call; then will He remove that which you call on Him to remove, if He please, and you will forget what you associate with Him.

English - Five Volume Translation

Nay, [a]but on Him alone will you call; then will He remove that which you call on Him to remove, if He please, and you will forget what you associate with Him.[788]

10:23-24.

Commentary:

The opening words of the verse contain the answer to the question put in the previous verse. The words, then will He remove that which you call on Him to remove, were fulfilled by the general pardon which the Holy Prophet granted to disbelievers at the Fall of Mecca. The memorable words spoken by him on that occasion were: "Go, I forgive you all. Go, you are free" (Zurqani, ii. 328).

The words, you will forget what you associate with Him, were also signally fulfilled on that day. At the Fall of Mecca, the Meccans lost all faith in their gods, as Abu Sufyan and his wife, Hind, and others frankly admitted in the presence of the Holy Prophet. Ultimately, idolatry disappeared from Arabia.

English - Short Commentary Translation

Nay, [a]but on Him alone will you call; then will He remove, if He please, that which you call on Him to remove, and you will forget what you associate with Him.[848]

10:23, 24.

The words, you will forget what you associate with Him, were literally fulfilled on the day of the Fall of Mecca. On that day the Meccans lost all faith in their gods, as Abu Sufyan and his wife, Hindah and others had frankly admitted in the presence of the Holy Prophet. Ultimately, idolatry completely disappeared from Arabia.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

(نہیں ) بلکہ اسی کو تم پکارو گے۔ پس وہ دور کر دے گا اگر وہ چاہے اس (مصیبت) کو جس کی طرف تم (مدد کے لئے) اُسے بلاتے ہو اور تم بھول جاؤ گے ان چیزوں کو جن کو تم شریک ٹھہراتے رہے ہو۔

French

Au contraire, Lui Seul que vous appellerez ; alors, s’Il le veut, Il enlèvera ce dont vous Lui demandiez d’être délivrés, et vous oublierez ce que vous Lui aurez associé.

German

Nein, zu Ihm allein werdet ihr rufen; dann wird Er das hinwegnehmen, wozu ihr (Ihn) ruft, wenn Er will und ihr werdet vergessen, was ihr (Ihm) zur Seite stelltet.

Chinese

不, [e](那时) 你们只呼求他。如果他愿意的话, 他必定解除你们呼求他 (去解除的) 那个 (困难), 那时候, 你们将忘掉你们所妄立的与安拉同等的崇拜对象。

10:23, 24.

Italian

No, invocherete solo Lui; allora Egli rimuoverà, se Gli aggrada, ciò che Gli chiedete di rimuovere, e dimenticherete ciò che associate a Lui.

Spanish

No, a Él sólo invocaréis. Entonces Él os librará de lo que le habéis pedido que os libere, si así lo quiere, y olvidaréis todo lo que asociasteis a Él”.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

نہیں بلکہ تم اسی کو پکارو گے پھر اگر وہ چاہے گا تو جس (تکلیف کے ازالہ) کے لئے تم (اسے) پکارو گے وہ اسے ضرور دور کر دے گا اور تم اسے جسے تم (خدا کا) شریک قرار دیتے ہو بھول جاؤ گے۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

ا س وقت تم اللہ ہی کو پکارتے ہو، پھر اگر وہ چاہتا ہے تو اس مصیبت کو تم پر سے ٹال دیتا ہے ایسے موقعوں پر تم اپنے ٹھیرائے ہوئے شریکوں کو بھول جاتے ہو

English - Sahih

No, it is Him [alone] you would invoke, and He would remove that for which you invoked Him if He willed, and you would forget what you associate [with Him].

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

بلکہ اسی کو پکارتے ہو پھر اگر وہ چاہتا ہے تو اس مصیبت کو دور کر دیتا ہے جس کے لیے اسے پکارتے ہو اور جنہیں تم الله کا شریک بناتے ہو انہیں بھول جاتے ہو

English - Talal Itani
