English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Nay! surely it is a Reminder —
English - Five Volume Translation
Nay! surely it is a Reminder.
20:4; 73:20; 74:55; 76:30.
Important Words:
کلا (nay) means, nay; by no means; on the contrary. The particle is also used to remonstrate with a person and to tell him that he is saying something which is not correct (Aqrab & Baqa).
Commentary:
The verse means that the charge of indifference is not correct. Moreover, why at all the Prophet should have adopted an attitude of sullen indifference towards a poor man when the Quran, being meant equally for the rich and the poor, it was not only inconsistent with his own high moral stature but also against human reason to do so? What the Prophet did on the specific occasion was dictated by the exigency of the occasion and was demanded by the situation and, therefore, was the right thing to do.
English - Short Commentary Translation
That should not be! Surely, it is a Reminder—
The verse means that the charge of indifference is not correct. Why at all the Holy Prophet should have adopted an attitude of sullen indifference towards a blind man when the Qur’an was meant equally for the rich and the poor? It was not only inconsistent with his own high moral stature but also against human reason to do so. What the Holy Prophet did on the specific occasion was demanded by the situation and, therefore, was the right thing for him to do.
اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
خبردار۔ یقیناً یہ ایک بڑی نصیحت ہے۔
French
Non ! Assurément, c’est un Rappel –
German
Nein! wahrlich, dies ist eine Ermahnung –
Chinese
这是绝不可能的! (这些非难都是不对的,) 这 («古兰经») 确是一项劝告--------
这节经文的意思是指责冷淡是不对的。«古兰经» 的态度对富人和穷人一视同仁, 为什么穆圣竟然对一个盲人抱着冷漠的态度? 这不仅与他自己崇高的精神境界不一致, 而且这样做也不合人的理智。在这样一个特殊的场合, 穆圣的表现是处境使然, 因此他这样做是对的。
