English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

O ye who believe! render not vain your alms by taunt and injury, like him who spends his wealth to be seen of men, and he believes not in Allah and the Last Day. His case is like the case of a smooth rock covered with earth, on which heavy rain falls, leaving it bare, smooth and hard. They shall not secure aught of what they earn. And Allah guides not the disbelieving people.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اے لوگو جو ایمان لائے ہو! اپنے صدقات کو احسان جتا کر یا اذیت دے کر ضائع نہ کیا کرو۔ اس شخص کی طرح جو اپنا مال لوگوں کے دکھانے کی خاطر خرچ کرتا ہے اور نہ تو اللہ پر ایمان رکھتا ہے اور نہ یومِ آخر پر۔ پس اس کی مثال ایک ایسی چٹان کی طرح ہے جس پر مٹی (کی تہ) ہو۔ پھر اس پر موسلادھار بارش برسے تو اُسے چٹیل چھوڑ جائے۔ جو کچھ وہ کماتے ہیں اس میں سے کسی چیز پر وہ کوئی اختیار نہیں رکھتے۔ اور اللہ کافر قوم کو ہدایت نہیں دیتا۔

French

Ô vous qui croyez, ne rendez pas vaines vos aumônes par des reproches et des torts, tout comme celui qui dépense ses biens pour que les hommes voient ce qu’il fait, et qui ne croit pas en Allāh ni au Jour Dernier. Son cas est pareil à celui d’une roche lisse couverte de terre, sur laquelle tombe une pluie abondante, la laissant nue. De tels hommes ne tireront aucun profit de ce qu’ils ont acquis. Et Allāh ne guide pas le peuple mécréant.

German

O die ihr glaubt, machet eure Almosen nicht eitel durch Vorhaltung und Anspruch, dem gleich, der von seinem Reichtum spendet, um von den Leuten gesehen zu werden, und er glaubt nicht an Allah und an den Jüngsten Tag. Ihm ergeht es wie einem glatten Felsen, den Erdreich bedeckt: wenn ein Platzregen auf ihn fällt, legt er ihn bloß – glatt und hart. Sie haben nichts von ihrem Verdienst. Und Allah weist nicht dem ungläubigen Volk den Weg.

Chinese

信仰的人啊! [d]莫要经由矜夸 (自己) 所施的恩惠和损害 (别人) 使你们的施舍物作废, 像[e]那个为向人夸示而花费自己的财富, 却不信安拉和后世的人。因为他的情况好像盖着泥土的石块一样, 一旦暴雨降落它上面时, 便把它冲洗得赤身坚硬的, [a]他们将得不到他们所作为的任何成果。安拉不领导不信的人 (成功的) 道路。[203]

Italian

O voi che credete! Non rendete vane le vostre elemosine col dileggio e l'ingiuria, come colui che dispensa le sue ricchezze per essere visto dagli uomini, e non crede né in Allah, né nell'Ultimo giorno. Il suo caso è simile a quello di una roccia levigata coperta di terra, su cui piove a dirotto, fino a mostrarne la sua nuda durezza. Essi non avranno alcun patrimonio di quello che guadagnano. E Allah non guida il popolo dei miscredenti.

Spanish

¡Oh creyentes! no hagáis vanas vuestras limosnas con reproches y agravios, como aquél que emplea su riqueza para ser visto por los hombres, y no cree en Al-lah ni en el Último Día. Su caso es similar a una roca lisa, cubierta con tierra, sobre la que cae el aguacero, dejándola desnuda, llana y dura. Éstos no conseguirán mantener nada de lo que han ganado. Y Al-lah no guía a la gente incrédula.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اے ایمان دارو! تم صدقات کو احسان جتانے اور تکلیف دینے (کے فعل) سے اس شخص کی طرح ضائع نہ کرلو جو لوگوں کے دکھانے کے لئے مال خرچ کرتا ہے اور اللہ اور روز آخرت پر ایمان نہیں رکھتا کیونکہ اس کی حالت تو اس پتھر کی حالت کے مشابہ ہے جس پر کچھ مٹی (پڑی ہوئی) ہو۔ اور اس پر تیز بارش[1] ہو اور وہ اسے (دھو کر پھر) صاف پتھر (کا پتھر) کردے۔ یہ (ایسے لوگ ہیں کہ) جو کچھ کماتے ہیں اس کا کوئی حصہ بھی ان کے ہاتھ نہیں آتا۔ اور اللہ اس قسم کے کافروں کو (کامیابی کی) راہ نہیں دکھاتا۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

O ye who believe! [a]render not vain your alms by reproach and injury like him [b]who spends his wealth to be seen[333] of men, and he believes not in Allah and the Last Day. His case is like the case of a smooth rock covered with earth, on which heavy rain falls, leaving it bare and hard. [c]They shall not secure aught of what they earn. And Allah guides not the disbelieving people.

Important Words:

رئاء (to be seen) is derived from رأی i.e. he saw with his physical or mental eyes. الرئاء means, to make a show of goodness or virtue without there being any sincere or genuine feeling behind it, simply to be seen of men (Aqrab & Mufradat).

صفوان (smooth rock) is in the measure of رحمان being derived from صفا i.e. it became clear or pure and was free from dirt, etc. صفوان besides being used in the singular number is also the plural of صفاة meaning, a smooth and hard rock (Aqrab).

وابل (heavy rain) is derived from وبل. They say وبله بالعصا i.e. he beat or battered him with a rod continuously. وبلت السماءmeans, the sky poured forth heavy rain (Aqrab).

صلد (bare, smooth and hard) is from صلد. They say صلدالزند i.e. the material, meant for producing fire gave out a sound but no Spark. صلد الارض means, the earth became hard. صلد السائل means, he turned away the beggar without giving him anything. صلد is, therefore, spoken of such rock or piece of ground as is hard and smooth and grows nothing (Aqrab).

Commentary:

The verse makes it clear that a Muslim who follows up his charity with taunt and injury, undoes his own good act and will have no reward with God. He is like a disbeliever who spends merely to be seen of and praised by men. The words, ‘and he believes not in Allah and the Last Day’ have been added because sometimes even a believer does a deed to be seen of men, and that act of his has a useful purpose. For instance, it is on record that once a Companion of the Holy Prophet was seen strutting before the hostile Quraish of Mecca. When the Prophet saw the man thus walking, he said, "This gait is hateful to God, but on the present occasion it is not so." In fact, there had been an outbreak of fever among the Companions who were greatly weakened thereby, and the aforesaid Muslim walked with a boastful gait in order to make a display of his strength so that the enemy might not think that the Muslims had been weakened by fever. This turned an ordinarily reprehensible act into a praiseworthy one. Elsewhere Muslims have been bidden to spend their money not only secretly but also openly (2:275), and the object underlying this injunction is that other Muslims, seeing a brother of theirs expending money in the cause of God, may be induced to follow his good example. But he who has no faith in God expends his money openly solely with the object of winning the good opinion of men, and such a one has no reward with God.

The concluding portion of the verse likens a disbeliever to a smooth rock which is not fit for producing a crop; but sometimes, when it is covered with a layer of dust, some corn may grow on it, i.e. when circumstances are favourable and such person does some really good deed, he derives some benefit from it. But when he spends money merely for the sake of display and show, his good deeds are wasted, just as a heavy rain washes away the dust from the surface of a smooth and hard rock, leaving it bare and unproductive.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اے ایمان لانے والو! اپنے صدقات کو احسان جتا کر اور دکھ دے کر اُس شخص کی طرح خاک میں نہ ملا دو، جو اپنا مال محض لوگوں کے دکھانے کو خرچ کرتا ہے اور نہ اللہ پر ایما ن رکھتا ہے، نہ آخرت پر اُس کے خرچ کی مثال ایسی ہے، جیسے ایک چٹان تھی، جس پر مٹی کی تہہ جمی ہوئی تھی اس پر جب زور کا مینہ برسا، تو ساری مٹی بہہ گئی اور صاف چٹان کی چٹان رہ گئی ایسے لوگ اپنے نزدیک خیرات کر کے جو نیکی کماتے ہیں، اس سے کچھ بھی اُن کے ہاتھ نہیں آتا، اور کافروں کو سیدھی راہ دکھانا اللہ کا دستور نہیں ہے

English - Sahih

O you who have believed, do not invalidate your charities with reminders or injury as does one who spends his wealth [only] to be seen by the people and does not believe in Allah and the Last Day. His example is like that of a [large] smooth stone upon which is dust and is hit by a downpour that leaves it bare. They are unable [to keep] anything of what they have earned. And Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اے ایمان والو! احسان رکھ کر اور ایذا دے کے اپنی خیرات کو ضائع نہ کرو اس شخص کی طرح جو اپنا مال لوگوں کے دکھانے کو خرچ کرتا ہے اور الله پر اور قیامت کے دن پر یقین نہیں رکھتا سو اس کی مثال ایسی ہے جیسے صاف پتھر کہ اس پر کچھ مٹی پڑی ہو پھر اس پر زور کا مینہ برساپھر اسی کو بالکل صاف کر دیا ایسے لوگوں کو اپنی کمائی ذرا ہاتھ بھی نہ لگے گی اور الله کافروں کو سیدھی راہ نہیں دکھاتا

English - Talal Itani

O you who believe[d]! (Do) not render in vain your charities with reminders (of it) or [the] hurt, like the one who spends his wealth (to) be seen (by) the people, and (does) not believe in Allah and the Day [the] Last. Then his example (is) like (that of a) smooth rock upon it (is) dust, then fell on it heavy rain, then left it bare. Not they have control on anything of what they (have) earned. And Allah (does) not guide the people [the] disbelieving.

在有些经文中, 穆斯林奉命也可以公开花费他们的财富 (2:275); 这样做的目的在于引发其他穆斯林可以效法他们的好榜样。但是, 不信安拉的人公开花费他的金钱只是为了赢得大家的称赞。这样的人没有资格得到安拉任何的报酬。

اَلْوَابِلُ: اَلْمَطَرُ الشَّدِیْدُ الضَّخْمُ الْقَطَرِ۔ موٹے موٹے قطروں والی سخت بارش۔ (اقرب)

English - Arberry

O believers, void not your freewill offerings with reproach and injury, as one who expends of his substance to show off to men and believes not in God and the Last Day. The likeness of him is as the likeness of a smooth rock on which is soil, and a torrent smites it, and leaves it barren. They have no power over anything that they have earned. God guides not the people of the unbelievers.

English - Maududi

O Believers, do not spoil your charity by taunts and injury to the recipients like the one who practises charity to be seen by men, while he neither believes in Allah nor in the Last Day. His charity may be likened to the rainfall on a rock which had only a thin layer of soil upon it. When heavy rain fell on it, the whole of the soil washed away and the rock was left bare Such people do not gain the reward they imagine they have earned by their seeming charity; Allah does not show the Right Way to the ungrateful.

English - Ahmed Ali

O believers, do not nullify your charity by giving to oblige and flaunting (your favours) like a man who spends of his wealth only to show off, but does not believe in God and the Last Day. His semblance is that of a rock covered with earth which is washed away by rain exposing the hard rock bare. So they gain nothing from their earnings. God does not guide a people who do not believe.

English - Yusuf Ali

O ye who believe! cancel not your charity by reminders of your generosity or by injury,- like those who spend their substance to be seen of men, but believe neither in Allah nor in the Last Day. They are in parable like a hard, barren rock, on which is a little soil: on it falls heavy rain, which leaves it (Just) a bare stone. They will be able to do nothing with aught they have earned. And Allah guideth not those who reject faith.

Elsewhere, Muslims have also been enjoined to spend their wealth openly (2:275); the object underlying being that other Muslims may be induced to follow their good example. But he who has no faith in God expends his money openly solely to win public approbation. Such a one loses all title to any reward from God.

English - Pickthall

O ye who believe! Render not vain your almsgiving by reproach and injury, like him who spendeth his wealth only to be seen of men and believeth not in Allah and the Last Day. His likeness is as the likeness of a rock whereon is dust of earth; a rainstorm smiteth it, leaving it smooth and bare. They have no control of aught of that which they have gained. Allah guideth not the disbelieving folk.

English - Muhammad Ali ^ra

O you who believe, make not your charity worthless by reproach and injury, like him who spends his wealth to be seen of men and believes not in Allah and the Last Day. So His parable is as the parable of a smooth rock with earth upon it, then heavy rain falls upon it, so it leaves it bare! They are not able to gain anything of that which they earn. And Allah guides not the disbelieving people.

English - Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan ^ra

O ye who believe, render not vain your alms by reproaches or injury, like one who spends his wealth to be seen of people and believes not in Allah and the Last Day. His case is like that of a smooth rock covered with earth, on which heavy rain falls and washes it clean, leaving it bare and hard. Such people shall not secure for themselves aught of that which they earn. Allah guides not the disbelieving people.
