اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اس نے کہا تمہارے ربّ کی طرف سے تم پر ناپاکی اور غضب واجب ہوچکے ہیں۔ کیا تم مجھ سے ایسے ناموں کے بارہ میں جھگڑتے ہو جو تم نے اور تمہارے باپ دادا نے گھڑ لئے ہیں جبکہ اللہ نے ان کے حق میں کوئی حجت نہیں اتاری۔ پس انتظار کرو۔ یقیناً میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ انتظار کرنے والوں میں سے ہوں۔

French

Il répondit : « En vérité, vous avez déjà été frappés par le châtiment et le courroux de votre Seigneur. Débattrez-vous avec moi au sujet des noms que vos pères et vous-mêmes avez nommés, ce pour quoi Allāh ne vous a transmis aucune autorité ? Attendez donc, moi aussi, je suis avec vous parmi ceux qui attendent. »

German

Er antwortete: "Niedergefallen ist nunmehr auf euch Strafe und Zorn von eurem Herrn. Wollt ihr mit mir über Namen streiten, die ihr nanntet – ihr und eure Väter –, wozu Allah keine Vollmacht hinabsandte? Wartet denn, ich bin mit euch unter den Wartenden."

Chinese

他 (回答) 说: “你们业已招致了你们养主的惩罚和愤怒。[b]你们与我对于你们和你们祖先所设计的名字而安拉并未给予任何证据者, (进行) 争辩吗? 所以你们等候 (为我的惩罚), [c]我也将同你们等候 (为你们的惩罚, 我们看谁的希望将会实现。)”

Egli rispose: «Invero, la punizione e l'ira del vostro Signore vi hanno già colpito. Discutete dunque con me su nomi che voi avete stabilito - voi e i vostri padri - per i quali Allah non vi ha mai mandato alcuna autorità? Attendete dunque; io sarò con voi tra coloro che attendono.»

Spanish

Respondió: “En verdad, ya han caído sobre vosotros el castigo y la ira de vuestro Señor. ¿Disputáis conmigo sobre nombres que habéis mencionado – vosotros y vuestros padres – y para los que Al-lah no ha dado autoridad alguna? Esperad, pues, estoy con vosotros entre los que esperan”.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اس نے کہا تمہارے رب کی طرف سے تم پر عذاب اور غضب نازل ہو چکا ہے۔ کیا تم ان ناموں کے متعلق مجھ سے بحث کرتے ہو جو تم نے اور تمہارے باپ دادوں نے تجویز کیے تھے۔ اللہ نے ان کے لئے کوئی دلیل نہیں اتاری۔ پس تم بھی (میرے لئے عذاب کا) انتظار کرو۔ میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ (تمہارے لئے) عذاب کا انتظار کرتا رہوں گا (اور دیکھیں گے کس کی امیدیں پوری ہوتی ہیں)

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

فرمایا تمہارے رب کی طرف سے تم پر عذاب اور غصہ واقع ہو چکا مجھ سے ان ناموں پر کیوں جھگڑتے ہو جوتم نے اور تمہارے باپ دادؤں نے مقرر کیے ہیں الله نے ان کے لیے کوئی دلیل نہیں اتاری سو انتظار کرو میں بھی تمہارے ساتھ انتظار کرنے والا ہوں
