اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

وَلَوْ أَنَّمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِن شَجَرَةٍ أَقْلَٰمٌ وَٱلْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُۥ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَّا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَٰتُ ٱللَّهِ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And if all the trees that are in the earth were pens, and the ocean were ink, with seven oceans swelling it thereafter, the words of Allah would not be exhausted. Surely, Allah is Mighty, Wise.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور زمین میں جتنے درخت ہیں اگر سب قلمیں بن جائیں اور سمندر (روشنائی ہوجائے اور) اس کے علاوہ سات سمندر بھی اس کی مدد کریں تب بھی اللہ کے کلمات ختم نہیں ہوں گے۔ یقیناً اللہ کامل غلبہ والا (اور) صاحبِ حکمت ہے۔

French

Et si tous les arbres qui se trouvent sur la terre étaient des plumes, et l’océan était de l’encre, renforcé de sept autres océans par la suite, les paroles d’Allāh ne seraient pas épuisées. Assurément, Allāh est Puissant, Sage.

German

Und wenn alle Bäume, die auf der Erde sind, Federn wären, und der Ozean (Tinte), und sieben Ozeane würden nachträglich ihm zugefügt, selbst dann könnten Allahs Zeichen nicht erschöpft werden. Wahrlich, Allah ist allmächtig, allweise.

Chinese

[a]即使以大地上所有的树木做笔, (以) 海水 (做墨汁), 而且在其中还增添七大海洋, 安拉的言语还是不能完全被记录下来。安拉确是优胜的, 明哲的。

Italian

E se tutti gli alberi che sono sulla terra fossero penne, e il mare - alimentato da altri sette oceani - fosse inchiostro, le parole di Allah non si esaurirebbero. Certamente Allah è il Potente, il Saggio.

Spanish

Si todos los árboles que hay en la tierra fuesen plumas; y el mar, con la ayuda de otros siete mares fuese tinta, no podrían agotarse las palabras de Al‑lah. En verdad,

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور اگر زمین میں جتنے درخت ہیں ان کی قلمیں بن جائیں اور سمندر سیاہی سے بھرا ہوا ہو۔ اس طرح کہ سات اور سیاہی کے سمندر اس میں ملا دئے جائیں تو بھی اللہ کے نشان[1] ختم نہیں ہوں گے۔ اللہ یقیناً غالب (اور) بڑی حکمتوں والا ہے۔

کَلِمَۃٌ بمعنے آیت ہے۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

[b]And if all the trees that are in the earth were pens, and the ocean—seven[2315] more oceans to replenish it—were ink, the words of Allah would not be exhausted. Surely, Allah is Mighty, Wise.

18:110.

Numbers "7" and "70" are used in Arabic to denote a large number, and not exactly "seven" and "seventy" as ordinary numerals.

English - Five Volume Translation

[b]And if all the trees that are in the earth were pens, and the ocean were ink, with seven oceans swelling it thereafter, the words of Allah would not be exhausted. Surely, Allah is Mighty, Wise.[3051]

18:110.

Commentary:

Overawed by the vastness of the size of an object of nature or the extraordinary powers of a human being, men of low intellect and weak faith are prone to ascribe Divine attributes to them. It is the untenability of this position that the verse under comment seeks to expose. It purports to say that disbelievers are overawed into attributing Divine powers to a big object of nature, or a great man, while the great universe of which God is the sole Architect is an inexhaustible storehouse of unfathomable mysteries, infinitely larger in number than the wonderful things that meet the eye. So it is absurd on the part of disbelievers to take an object of nature or a human being as God on the score of his or its being seemingly extraordinary.

It may also be noted that numbers "7" and "70" are used in Arabic to denote a very large number, and not exactly "seven" and "seventy" as ordinary numerals.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

زمین میں جتنے درخت ہیں اگر وہ سب کے سب قلم بن جائیں اور سمندر (دوات بن جائے) جسے سات مزید سمندر روشنائی مہیا کریں تب بھی اللہ کی باتیں (لکھنے سے) ختم نہ ہوں گی بے شک اللہ زبردست اور حکیم ہے

English - Sahih

And if whatever trees upon the earth were pens and the sea [was ink], replenished thereafter by seven [more] seas, the words of Allah would not be exhausted. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اوراگروہ جو زمین میں درخت ہیں سب قلم ہوجائیں گے اور دریا سیاہی اس کے بعد اس دریا میں سات اور دریا سیاہی کے آ ملیں تو بھی الله کی باتیں ختم نہ ہوں بے شک الله زبردست حکمت والا ہے

English - Talal Itani

And if whatever (is) in the earth of (the) trees (were) pens and the sea, (to) add to it after it seven seas, not would be exhausted (the) Words (of) Allah. Indeed, Allah (is) All-Mighty, All-Wise.
