وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ أَنتُمْ قَلِيلٌ مُّسْتَضْعَفُونَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَخَافُونَ أَن يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ ٱلنَّاسُ فَـَٔاوَىٰكُمْ وَأَيَّدَكُم بِنَصْرِهِۦ وَرَزَقَكُم مِّنَ ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

اور یاد کرو جب تم بہت تھوڑے تھے (اور) زمین میں کمزور شمار کئے جاتے تھے (اور) ڈرا کرتے تھے کہ کہیں لوگ تمہیں اُچک نہ لے جائیں تو اس نے تمہیں پناہ دی اور اپنی نصرت سے تمہاری تائید کی اور تمہیں پاکیزہ چیزوں میں سے رزق دیا تاکہ تم شکرگزار بنو۔

French

Et souvenez-vous quand vous étiez peu nombreux et considérés comme faibles sur la terre et que vous craigniez que des hommes ne vous enlèvent ; mais Il vous abrita et vous fortifia de Son aide, et vous approvisionna en de bonnes choses, afin que vous fussiez reconnaissants.

German

Und denket daran, wie ihr wenige wart, galtet für schwach im Land, schwebtet in Furcht, dass die Leute euch hinwegraffen könnten; Er aber schirmte euch und stärkte euch durch Seine Hilfe und versorgte euch mit guten Dingen, auf dass ihr dankbar sein möchtet.

Chinese

要记着, 当你们在地面上是少数, 被人认为弱小可欺, 怕人们抢劫你们时, 他庇护了你们, 他以自己的援助使你们坚强并供应了你们美好的东西, 以便你们成为感恩报德的人。

Italian

E ricordatevi di quando eravate in pochi e ritenuti deboli in tutto il paese, e temevate che la gente vi rapisse. Ma Egli vi ha protetto e fortificato con il Suo aiuto, e vi ha provvisto di buone cose, affinché Gli foste riconoscenti.

Spanish

Y acordaos de cuando erais muy pocos y considerados débiles en la tierra, y temíais que las gentes os exterminaran, pero Él os protegió y fortaleció con Su ayuda, y os proporcionó cosas buenas para que fueseis agradecidos.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور یاد کرو جب کہ تم تھوڑے تھے اور زمین میں کمزور سمجھے جاتے تھے اور ڈرتے تھے کہ لوگ تم کو اچک کر نہ لے جائیں۔ پھر باوجود اس کے اس نے تم کو (مدینہ میں) جگہ دی اور اپنی مدد سے تمہاری تائید کی اور پاک چیزوں سے تمہیں رزق بخشا تا کہ تم شکر کرو۔

Commentary:

Muslims are here told that as God saved them when they were weak in the land and were surrounded by wicked and mischievous people, so they should strive to save those who are weak and surrounded by dangers. The verse also hints that as Muslims will soon prosper and attain power, they should never forget the days of hardships through which they have passed, i.e. in the days of their power, they should never oppress the weak creatures of God but should always treat them with justice and mercy.
