English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

18:29

وَٱصْبِرْ نَفْسَكَ مَعَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِٱلْغَدَوٰةِ وَٱلْعَشِىِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُۥ ۖ وَلَا تَعْدُ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْهُمْ تُرِيدُ زِينَةَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَا تُطِعْ مَنْ أَغْفَلْنَا قَلْبَهُۥ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَٱتَّبَعَ هَوَىٰهُ وَكَانَ أَمْرُهُۥ فُرُطًا

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And keep thyself attached to those who call on their Lord, morning and evening, seeking His pleasure; and let not thy eyes pass beyond them, seeking the adornment of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his evil inclinations, and his case exceeds all bounds.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور تُو خود بھی صبر کر اُن لوگوں کے ساتھ جو صبح بھی اور شام کو بھی اپنے ربّ کو، اس کی رضا چاہتے ہوئے، پکارتے ہیں۔ اور تیری نگاہیں اُن سے تجاوز نہ کریں اس حال میں کہ تو دنیا کی زندگی کی زینت چاہتا ہو۔ اور اس کی پیروی نہ کر جس کے دل کو ہم نے اپنی یاد سے غافل کر رکھا ہے اور وہ اپنی ہوس کے پیچھے لگ گیا ہے اور اس کا معاملہ حد سے بڑھا ہوا ہے۔

French

Et toi-même fais preuve de patience en compagnie de ceux qui invoquent leur Seigneur, matin et soir, tout en recherchant Son plaisir ; et ne laisse pas tes yeux aller au-delà d’eux, en quête de l’ornement de la vie de ce monde ; et n’obéis pas à celui dont Nous avons rendu le cœur indifférent à Notre souvenir, et qui suit ses mauvais penchants, et dont le cas dépasse toutes les limites.

German

Halte dich zu denen, die ihren Herrn anrufen des Morgens und des Abends, im Trachten nach Seinem Wohlgefallen; und lass deine Blicke nicht über sie hinauswandern, indem du nach dem Gepränge des irdischen Lebens begehrst; und gehorche nicht dem, dessen Herz Wir achtlos machten der Erinnerung an Uns, der seinen bösen Gelüsten folgt und dessen Fall ein äußerster ist.

Chinese

[b]要坚定与在朝夕向养主祈祷而寻求他的喜悦者为伍, 不应忽视他们而贪图现世的美观, 切莫顺随那种人: 我将令他的心疏于纪念我, 他所追求的是低俗的欲望, 他的情况是失中的。

6:53; 7:206.

Italian

E rimani in perseveranza con coloro che invocano il loro Signore, mattina e sera, cercando il Suo compiacimento, e non distogliere da essi il tuo sguardo per cercare bellezze mondane; e non obbedire a Colui il cui cuore Noi abbiamo reso incurante del Nostro ricordo, che segue le sue cattive inclinazioni e infrange ogni limite.

Spanish

Mantente unido a quienes invocan a su Señor, mañana y tarde, buscando Su agrado; no permitas que tus ojos se aparten de ellos, buscando las galas de la vida del mundo; y no obedezcas a aquel cuyo corazón lo hemos hecho distraído de Nuestro recuerdo ni a quien sigue sus inclinaciones malvadas, superando en su conducta todos los límites.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور اپنے آپ کو ان لوگوں کے ساتھ رکھ جو اپنے رب کو اس کی خوشنودی چاہتے ہوئے صبح و شام پکارتے ہیں اور تیری نظریں ان کو پیچھے چھوڑ کر آگے [1]نہ نکل جائیں (اور اگر تو ایسا کرے گا تو) تو ورلی زندگی کی زینت چاہے گا اور جس کے دل کو ہم نے اپنی یاد سے غافل کر دیا ہو اور اس نے اپنی گری ہوئی خواہش کی پیروی اختیار کی ہو اور اس کا معاملہ حد سے بڑھا ہوا ہو اس کی فرمانبرداری مت کر۔

یعنی صحابہ ؓ کی قربانیوں کو بھولیو نہیں۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

[a]And keep thyself attached to those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His pleasure; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the adornment of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his low desires, and his case exceeds all legitimate bounds.

6:53; 7:206.

English - Five Volume Translation

[c]And keep thyself attached to those who call on their Lord, morning and evening, seeking His pleasure; and let not thy eyes pass beyond them, seeking the adornment of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his evil inclinations and his case exceeds all bounds.[2069]

6:53; 7:206.

Commentary:

This verse lends further support to the fact that the preceding verses embody some very important prophecies. In fact, we are here told that at the time of the predominance and ascendancy of Christian nations there will be living in the world a people who, as true representatives of Islam, will be engaged night and day in prayer and Divine worship. The so-called Muslims will, at that time—the time of Imam Mahdi—pin all their hopes about the future political glory and greatness of Islam on the employment of material means and will look down upon the poor and politically unimportant followers of the Imam Mahdi for concentrating on prayer and worship. The verse warns Muslims that on prayer and Divine worship alone will depend the eventual salvation and success of Islam.

The verse further mentions the following three main causes of the misfortunes and miseries of Muslims at that time: (a) they will be neglectful of prayer and Divine worship; (b) love of the world will be their overpowering passion; and (c) they will be wholly lost in the pursuit of material comforts and a life of luxury. But their deliverance will lie in a complete change of their outlook and the programme of their life.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اور اپنے دل کو اُن لوگوں کی معیت پر مطمئن کرو جو اپنے رب کی رضا کے طلب گار بن کر صبح و شام اُسے پکارتے ہیں، اور اُن سے ہرگز نگاہ نہ پھیرو کیا تم دنیا کی زینت پسند کرتے ہو؟ کسی ایسے شخص کی اطاعت نہ کرو جس کے دل کو ہم نے اپنی یاد سے غافل کر دیا ہے اور جس نے اپنی خواہش نفس کی پیروی اختیار کر لی ہے اور جس کا طریق کار افراط و تفریط پر مبنی ہے

English - Sahih

And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

تو ان لوگو ں کی صحبت میں رہ جو صبح اور شام اپنے رب کو پکارتے ہیں اسی کی رضا مندی چاہتے ہیں اور تو اپنی آنکھوں کو ان سے نہ ہٹا کہ دنیا کی زندگی کی زینت تلاش کرنے لگ جائے اور اس شخص کا کہنا نہ مان جس کے دل کو ہم نے اپنی یاد سے غافل کر دیاہے اور اپنی خواہش کے تابع ہو گیا ہے اور ا سکا معاملہ حد سے گزر ا ہوا ہے

English - Talal Itani

And be patient, yourself, with those who call their Lord in the morning and the evening desiring His Face. And (let) not pass beyond your eyes over them, desiring adornment (of) the life (of) the world, and (do) not obey whom We have made heedless his heart of Our remembrance, and follows his desires and is his affair (in) excess.

English - Arberry

And restrain thyself with those who call upon their Lord at morning and evening, desiring His countenance, and let not thine eyes turn away from them, desiring the adornment of the present life; and obey not him whose heart We have made neglectful of Our remembrance so that he follows his own lust, and his affair has become all excess.

English - Maududi

Keep yourself content with those who call upon their Lord, morning and evening, seeking His pleasure, and do not let your eyes pass beyond them. Do you seek the pomp and glitter of the world? Do not follow him whose heart We have caused to be heedless of Our remembrance, and who follows his desires, and whose attitude is of excess.

English - Ahmed Ali

Persevere with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His magnificence. Do not turn your eyes away from them, seeking the splendours of this world, and do not follow him whose heart We have made oblivious to Our remembrance, who follows his own lust and exceeds the bound.

English - Yusuf Ali

And keep thy soul content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the pomp and glitter of this Life; nor obey any whose heart We have permitted to neglect the remembrance of Us, one who follows his own desires, whose case has gone beyond all bounds.

Restrain thyself along with those who cry unto their Lord at morn and evening, seeking His Countenance; and let not thine eyes overlook them, desiring the pomp of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance, who followeth his own lust and whose case hath been abandoned.

English - Muhammad Ali ^ra

And keep thyself with those who call on their Lord morning and evening desiring His goodwill, and let not thine eyes pass from them, desiring the beauties of this world’s life. And follow not him whose heart We have made unmindful of Our remembrance, and he follows his low desires and his case exceeds due bounds.

English - Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan ^ra

Continue thy companionship with those who call on their Lord, morning and evening, seeking His pleasure, and look not beyond them, for if thou dost that thou wouldst be seeking the values of this life; and follow not him whom We have caused to be heedless of Our remembrance who pursues his low desires, and whose case exceeds all bounds.
