اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
اور ہم نے اُسے دو مرتفع راستوں کی طرف ہدایت دی۔
French
Et Nous lui avons indiqué les deux grandes voies de l'Ascension.
German
Dann haben Wir ihm die beiden Heerstraßen (zu Gut und Böse) gewiesen,

Spanish
Y le mostramos dos caminos ascendentes de nobleza.
اردو تفسیرِ صغیر
پھر ہم نے اسے (ہدایت اور گمراہی کے) دونوں راستے بھی بتا دئیے ہیں۔
یعنی قرآن کریم نے واضح کر دیا ہے کہ ہدایت کیا ہے اور گمراہی کیا ہے اس کے بعد بھی اگر وہ گمراہی کی طرف جائے تو اس کا اپنا قصور ہے کیونکہ اس کو خداتعالیٰ نے اندرونی آنکھیں بھی دی ہوئی ہیں۔ اور اگر آنکھ سے کوئی چیز نظر نہ آئے تو زبان اور ہونٹوں سے پوچھ کر وہ اپنے شُبہات کو دور کر سکتا ہے اور اس طرح ان کے تمام عُذر توڑ دیئے ہیں اور کلام الٰہی نازل کرکے ان پر واضح کر دیا ہے کہ ہدایت اور گمراہی کیا ہے۔ روحانی آنکھیں دے کر ان کو اس بات کی توفیق دے دی ہے کہ وہ کلام الٰہی کی خوبیوں کو پہچان سکیں اور زبان اور ہدایت دے کر اس قابل بنا دیا ہے کہ اگر کلام الٰہی کا کوئی حصہ سمجھ نہ آئے
