English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

4:36

وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ شِقَاقَ بَيْنِهِمَا فَٱبْعَثُوا۟ حَكَمًا مِّنْ أَهْلِهِۦ وَحَكَمًا مِّنْ أَهْلِهَآ إِن يُرِيدَآ إِصْلَٰحًا يُوَفِّقِ ٱللَّهُ بَيْنَهُمَآ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا خَبِيرًا

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And if you fear a breach between them, then appoint an arbiter from his folk and an arbiter from her folk. If they (the arbiters) desire reconciliation, Allah will effect it between them. Surely, Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور اگر تمہیں ان دو (میاں بیوی) کے درمیان شدید اختلاف کا خوف ہو تو اس (یعنی خاوند) کے گھر والوں میں سے ایک صاحبِ حکمت فیصلہ کرنے والا اور اس (یعنی بیوی) کے گھروالوں میں سے ایک صاحبِ حکمت فیصلہ کرنے والا مقرر کرو۔ اگر وہ دونوں اصلاح چاہیں تو اللہ ان دونوں کے درمیان موافقت پیدا کردے گا۔ یقیناً اللہ دائمی علم رکھنے والا (اور) خوب باخبر ہے۔

French

Et si vous craignez une rupture entre les deux, alors désignez un arbitre de sa famille à lui, et un arbitre de sa famille à elle. Si les deux désirent une réconciliation, Allāh amènera l’entente entre eux. Assurément, Allāh est Omniscient, Très-Conscient.

German

Und befürchtet ihr ein Zerwürfnis zwischen ihnen*, dann bestimmt einen Schiedsrichter aus seiner Sippe und einen Schiedsrichter aus ihrer Sippe. Wenn diese dann Aussöhnung herbeiführen wollen, so wird Allah zwischen ihnen (den Eheleuten) vergleichen. Siehe, Allah ist allwissend, allkundig.

Chinese

[a]如果你们怕他们 (夫妻) 之间有了分歧, 那么, 要从双方的亲戚中各推定一个公断人。如果他们愿意调解, 安拉必使他们 (夫妻) 和睦起来。安拉真是全知的, 洞悉一切的。

4:129.

Italian

E se temete una rottura tra di loro, designate allora un arbitro dalla famiglia di lui e uno dalla famiglia di lei. Se desiderano la riconciliazione, Allah la porrà in atto tra di loro. Certamente, Allah è l'Onnisciente, il Consapevole di tutto.

Spanish

Y si teméis una ruptura entre ellos, nombrad a un árbitro de la gente de él y a otro de la de ella. Si desean la reconciliación, Al-lah la realizará entre ellos. En verdad, Al-lah es Omnisciente, el que Todo lo Sabe.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور اگر تمہیں ان دونوں (یعنی میاں بیوی) کے آپس (کے تعلقات) میں تفرقہ کا خوف ہو تو ایک پنچ اس (یعنی مرد) کے رشتہ داروں سے اور ایک پنچ اس (یعنی عورت) کے رشتہ داروں سے مقرر کرو (پھر) اگر وہ دونوں (پنچ) صلح کرانا چاہیں تو اللہ ان دونوں (میاں بیوی) کے درمیان موافقت پیدا کر دے گا۔ اللہ یقیناً بہت جاننے والا (اور) خبردار ہے۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

And [a]if you[602] fear a breach between them, then appoint an arbiter from his folk and an orbiter from her folk.[603] If they (the arbiters) desire reconciliation, Allah will effect it between them. Surely, Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware.

4:129.

The pronoun, "you" in the expression, "if you fear" refers to the Muslim State or to the whole community collectively or the people generally.

The arbiters should preferably be chosen from the relations of the contending parties, because they are expected to be acquainted with the real causes of differences and because also it is easier for both parties to put their differences before them.

English - Five Volume Translation

And [a]if you fear a breach between them, then appoint an arbiter from his folk and an arbiter from her folk. If they (the arbiters) desire reconciliation, Allah will effect it between them. Surely, Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware.[513]

4:129.

Important Words:

حکما (arbiter) is fromحکم. They say حکمه i.e. he made him judge. حکمor حاکم means, one who judges, a judge, an arbiter, an arbitrator or umpire between people; a ruler or governor (Lane).

Commentary:

The pronoun, used in the plural number, in the expression إن خفتم (if you fear) refers to a Muslim State, or community, or the people generally. The arbiters should prefer-ably be chosen from the relations of the contending parties, because they are expected to be acquainted with the real cause of differences and it is easier also for both parties to put their case before them. The verse makes it clear that Islam leaves no avenue unexplored to bring about reconciliation between husband and wife before it allows them to sever the tie of marriage.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اور اگر تم لوگوں کو کہیں میاں اور بیوی کے تعلقات بگڑ جانے کا اندیشہ ہو تو ایک حَکم مرد کے رشتہ داروں میں سے اور ایک عورت کے رشتہ داروں میں سے مقرر کرو، وہ دونوں اصلاح کرنا چاہیں گے تو اللہ اُن کے درمیان موافقت کی صورت نکال دے گا، اللہ سب کچھ جانتا ہے اور باخبر ہے

English - Sahih

And if you fear dissension between the two, send an arbitrator from his people and an arbitrator from her people. If they both desire reconciliation, Allah will cause it between them. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Acquainted [with all things].

English - Talal Itani

And if you fear a dissension between (the) two of them, then send an arbitrator from his family and an arbitrator from her family. If they both wish reconciliation, will cause reconciliation Allah between both of them. Indeed, Allah is All-Knower, All-Aware.
