English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

But they turned away; so We sent against them a fierce flood. And We gave them, in lieu of their gardens, two gardens bearing bitter fruit and tamarisk and a few lotetrees.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

پھر انہوں نے انحراف کیا تو ہم نے ان پر ٹوٹے ہوئے بند کا (موجزن) سیلاب بھیجا۔ اور ہم نے ان کے لئے ان کے دو باغوں کو دو ایسے باغوں میں تبدیل کر دیا جو دونوں ہی بدمزہ پھل اور جھاؤ کے پودوں والے اور کچھ تھوڑی سی بیریوں والے تھے۔

French

Mais ils se détournèrent ; Nous avons donc envoyé contre eux une inondation dévastatrice résultant d’une digue rompue. Et Nous leur donnâmes à la place de leurs deux jardins, deux jardins produisant des fruits amers et des tamaris, et quelques jujubiers.

German

Jedoch sie kehrten sich ab; da sandten Wir gegen sie eine reißende Flut. Und Wir gaben ihnen, an Stelle ihrer Gärten, zwei Gärten mit bitterer Frucht und Tamarisken und wenigen Lotusbäumen.

Chinese

但他们背弃了 (真理); 所以我降给他们毁灭性的水灾, 为他们生长苦果、河柳和少数酸枣的园林代替他们那两座 (优美的) 林园。

Italian

Ma essi voltarono le spalle; così Noi inviammo contro di loro una inondazione devastante dal cedimento di una diga. E demmo loro, al posto dei loro meravigliosi giardini, due giardini che producevano frutti amari e tamerici, e qualche pianta di loto.

Spanish

Pero se apartaron, por lo que enviamos contra ellos una inundación devastadora procedente de la rotura de un dique. Y en lugar de sus jardines, les dimos dos jardines que daban frutos amargos, tamarindos y algunos lotos.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

پھر بھی انہوں نے (حق سے) پیٹھ پھیر لی تب ہم نے (ان کے حق پانے سے مایوس ہو کر) ان پر ایسا سیلاب بھیج دیا جو ہر چیز کو تباہ کرتا جاتا تھا اور ہم نے ان کے دو اعلیٰ درجہ کے باغوں کی جگہ ان کو دو ایسے باغ دئیے جن کے پھل بدمزہ تھے‘ اور جن میں جھاؤ پایا جاتا تھا یا کچھ تھوڑی سی بیریاں تھیں۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

But they turned away; so We sent against them a devastating flood.[2384] And We gave them, in place of their two excellent gardens, two gardens bearing bitter fruit and containing tamarisk and a few lote-trees.

‘Arim means, a dam or dams constructed in valleys or torrent-beds; or a torrent of which the rush is not to be withstood; or violent rain (Lane). A mighty flood caused the dam of Ma’arib, to which the Sabaeans owed all their prosperity, to burst and inundate the whole area causing widespread ruin. A land full of beautiful gardens, streams and great works of art, was turned into a vast waste. The dam was about two miles long and 120 ft. high. It was destroyed about the first or second century A.D. (Palmer).

English - Five Volume Translation

But they turned away; [a]so We sent against them a fierce flood. And We gave them, in lieu of their gardens, two gardens bearing bitter fruit and tamarisk and a few lote-trees.[3143]

Important Words:

سیل العرم (fierce flood). سیل is derived from سال which means, it (the water) flowed. سیل means, a torrent, a flow of water; much water or a collection of rain-water flowing in a valley or water course. ماء سیل means, flowing or running water. عرم is derived from عرم (‘arama or ‘aruma) which means, he was or became evil in disposition; he behaved insolently or he was or became corrupt. عرم means, a dam or dams constructed in valleys or torrent-beds; or a torrent of which the rush is not to be withstood; or violent rain (Lane &Aqrab).

Commentary:

Such is the irony of human circumstances that whenever man is blessed with material comforts and amenities of life and leads a prosperous and successful life, then instead of being grateful to God for His blessings and favours, he becomes arrogant and begins to behave ungratefully and insolently. The Sabaeans were no exception to the common run of humanity. In the day of prosperity they fell into evil ways and defied and broke Divine laws. The inevitable nemesis seized them. The same dam of Ma’arib to which they owed all their wealth and prosperity caused their destruction. As the result of a mighty flood it burst and inundated the whole area causing wide-spread ruin. A land full of beautiful gardens, streams and great works of art was turned into a vast waste. The dam was about two miles long and 120 ft. high. It was destroyed about the first or second century A.D. (Palmer).
