English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Though thou art not responsible if he does not become purified.
English - Five Volume Translation
Though thou art not responsible if he does not become purifìed.
Commentary:
The verse seems to constitute an effective justification of the Holy Prophet’s attitude towards ‘Abdullah bin Ummi Maktum. It purports to say that it would have brought no good to the Holy Prophet if ‘Abdullah or, for that matter, the Quraish leader did or did not benefit by his talk. Thus the attitude of fancied indifference towards ‘Abdullah or of deference towards the Quraish leader shown by the Holy Prophet proceeded from no consideration of any personal interest. The Holy Prophet’s reaction was solely due to compliance with the commandments of the Shari‘ah about behaving kindly and courteously towards one’s guests and visitors.
English - Short Commentary Translation
Though thou art not responsible if he does not become purified—
The verse constitutes an effective justification of the Holy Prophet’s attitude towards ‘Abdullah ibn Umm-e-Maktum. It purports to say that the Holy Prophet was not responsible if the Quraish leader did not benefit by his talk. His attitude of seeming indifference towards ‘Abdullah or of deference towards the Quraish leader proceeded from no consideration of any personal interest. It was solely dictated by the commandments of the Shari‘ah about behaving kindly and courteously towards one’s visitors.
اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
حالانکہ تُجھ پر کوئی ذمہ داری نہیں اگر وہ پاکیزگی اختیار نہ کرے۔
French
Alors que tu n’es pas responsable s’il ne se purifie pas –
German
wiewohl du nicht verantwortlich bist, wenn er sich nicht reinigen will.
Chinese
如果他不净化自己 (的身心) 你不负任何责任, (你怎么会这样做?)
这节经文有效地证实了穆圣对阿布杜拉•彬•乌姆•马克图姆的正确态度, 大意是说, 如果古莱西人首领不听取穆圣的话, 穆圣将撒手不管。他对阿布杜拉•彬•乌姆•马克图姆的态度似乎是冷淡的, 或对古莱西人首领的态度似乎是敬重的, 这些都不是出于个人利益的考虑。这完全是经典的命令: 对客人要和蔼有礼。
