English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Which had well nigh broken thy back,
English - Five Volume Translation
Which had well-nigh broken thy back,
Commentary:
The Holy Prophet had been saddled with such a nerve-racking and back-breaking task as had never been entrusted to a human being, i.e. first to raise a degenerate people from the depths of moral turpitude to the peaks of spiritual excellence and, then through them to cleanse and purify the whole of mankind of the dross of iniquity, ignorance and superstition. This was indeed a very heavy responsibility which had almost crushed the Prophet under its weight, but God lightened his burden in that He gave him devoted and sincere Companions who shared his burden and helped him in the discharge of his manifold and hard duties.

Which had well-nigh broken thy back?
The Holy Prophet had been saddled with such nerve-racking and backbreaking task as had never been entrusted to any human being, i.e. first to raise a degenerate people from the depths of moral turpitude to the pinnacle of spiritual excellence and, then through them to cleanse and purify the whole of mankind of the dross of iniquity, ignorance and superstition. This was indeed, a very heavy responsibility which had almost crushed him under its weight, but God lightened his burden.
اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
جس نے تیری کمر توڑ رکھی تھی-
French
Qui brisait presque ton échine ?
German
die dir den Rücken niederwuchtete,
Italian
che quasi ti stava spezzando la schiena?
Spanish
Que había estado a punto de romperte la espalda,
اردو تفسیرِ صغیر
ایسا بوجھ‘ جس نے تیری کمر توڑ رکھی تھی۔
یعنی شریعتِ کامل تجھ پر اتار دی ہے تا کہ خدا کی ہدایت کی روشنی میں چلے اور حیران نہ ہو۔
آپ اسی گھبراہٹ میں غارِ حرا میں جاتے تھے کہ میں اپنی عقل سے خداتعالیٰ کو پانے اور قوم کی اصلاح میں کس طرح کامیاب ہو سکوں گا۔ خداتعالیٰ نے اپنی خاص ہدایت یعنی قرآن مجید کے ذریعہ گھبراہٹ کو دُور کر دیا جیسے کہ سورۃ علق میں تفصیل آتی ہے۔
