فَقَالَ الۡمَلَؤُا الَّذِیۡنَ کَفَرُوۡا مِنۡ قَوۡمِہٖ مَا ہٰذَاۤ اِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِّثۡلُکُمۡ یُرِیۡدُ اَنۡ یَّتَفَضَّلَ عَلَیۡکُمۡ وَلَوۡ شَآءَ اللّٰہُ لَاَنۡزَلَ مَلٰٓئِکَۃً مَّا سَمِعۡنَا بِہٰذَا فِیۡۤ اٰبَآئِنَا الۡاَوَّلِیۡنَ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved, said, ‘He is only a man like yourselves; he seeks to make himself superior to you. And if Allah had so willed, He could have surely sent down angels with him. We have never heard of such a thing among our forefathers.

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

پس ان سرداروں نے جنہوں نے اس کی قوم میں سے کفر کیا، کہا یہ تو تمہاری طرح کے ایک بشر کے سوا کچھ نہیں۔ یہ چاہتا ہے کہ تم پر اپنی فضیلت قائم کرے۔ اور اگر اللہ چاہتا تو فرشتے اتار دیتا۔ ہم نے تو اپنے گزشتہ آباءو اجداد کے تعلق میں ایسا نہیں سنا۔

French

Et les chefs de son peuple, qui avaient refusé de croire, dirent : « Il n’est qu’un homme comme vous ; il voudrait se rendre supérieur à vous. Et si Allāh l’avait voulu, Il aurait assurément pu faire descendre des anges. Nous n’avons jamais entendu une telle chose parmi nos aïeux.

German

Aber die Häupter seines Volks, die ungläubig waren, sprachen: "Er ist nur ein Mensch wie ihr; er möchte sich bloß über euch erheben. Hätte Allah gewollt, Er hätte doch gewiss Engel hinabsenden können. Wir haben nie von solchem unter unseren Vorvätern gehört.

Chinese

[d]他族中不信的领袖们说: “这人只是与你们同样的一个人, 他想比你们优越。如果安拉要 (派遣使者), [e]他必下降天使。我们未曾听说我们的祖先有过这种经历;

7:61; 11:28; 17:95, 34:44.

17:96.

Italian

E i capi del suo popolo, che non credevano, dissero: «Costui è soltanto un uomo come voi; egli cerca di rendersi superiore a voi. Ma se Allah avesse voluto così, di certo Egli avrebbe potuto far scendere angeli con lui. Non abbiamo mai sentito una cosa simile tra i nostri antenati.

Spanish

Mas los jefes de su pueblo que no creían, dijeron: “No es más que un hombre como vosotros; intenta hacerse superior a vosotros. Y si Al-lah lo hubiese querido, en verdad habría enviado ángeles. Nunca oímos tal cosa entre nuestros antepasados”;

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اس پر اس کی قوم کے کافروں کے سرداروں نے کہا یہ شخص تو فقط تمہارے جیسا ایک انسان ہے (اور) چاہتا ہے کہ تم پر فضیلت اختیار کرے اگر اللہ (پیغمبر بھیجنا) چاہتا تو فرشتوں کو اتارتا۔ ہم نے اپنے پہلے باپ دادوں میں تو کوئی اس قسم کا واقعہ ہوتا سنا نہیں۔

English - Short Commentary Translation

[d]And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved, said, ‘He is only a mortal like yourselves;[1992] he seeks to gain superiority over you. And if Allah had so willed, [a]He could have, surely, sent down angels with him. We have never heard of such a thing among our forefathers;

17:96.

7:61; 11:28; 17:95, 34:44.

The disbelievers suffer from a superiority complex and therefore reject Divine Messengers on the plea that they cannot accept the lead of one who is 'only a mortal like themselves.' The verse incidentally implies that belief in the existence of angels was entertained from time immemorial. As far back as Noah’s time his opponents wanted to see angels descending on them.

[b]And the chiefs of his people, who disbelieved, said, ‘He is only a man like yourselves; he seeks to make himself superior to you. And if Allah had so willed, [c]He could have surely sent down angels with him. We have never heard of such a thing among our forefathers.[2529]

7:61; 11:28; 17:95; 34:44.

17:96.

Commentary:

The disbelievers have always suffered from a superiority complex and therefore have always rejected Divine Messengers on the plea that they cannot accept the lead of one who is "only a man like ourselves."

The verse incidentally implies that belief in the existence of angels was entertained from time immemorial. As far back as Noah’s time his opponents wanted to see angels descending on them. See also 11:28.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اس کی قوم کے جن سرداروں نے ماننے سے انکار کیا وہ کہنے لگے کہ "یہ شخص کچھ نہیں ہے مگر ایک بشر تم ہی جیسا اِس کی غرض یہ ہے کہ تم پر برتری حاصل کرے اللہ کو اگر بھیجنا ہوتا تو فرشتے بھیجتا یہ بات تو ہم نے کبھی اپنے باپ دادا کے وقتوں میں سنی ہی نہیں (کہ بشر رسول بن کر آئے)

English - Sahih

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

سواس کی قوم کے کافر سرداروں نے کہا کہ یہ بس تم ہی جیسا آدمی ہے تم پر بڑائی حاصل کرنا چاہتا ہے اور اگر الله چاہتا تو فرشتے بھیج دیتا ہم نے اپنے پہلے باب دادا سے یہ بات کبھی نہیں سنی

English - Talal Itani

English - Short Commentary Translation

He said, ‘O nobles, which of you will bring me her throne[2171] before they come to me submitting?’

The expression, bi-‘Arshiha, seems to signify the throne which Solomon had ordered to be built for the Queen. It seemed to be a practice in vogue at that time that when the ruler of a State paid a visit to another ruler, a throne was built for the reception of the royal guest. Solomon also ordered a throne to be built for the reception of the Queen. It is called 'her throne' because it was specially built for her use. The expression may also mean, 'the like of her throne,' and Ya’tini, may mean, 'will prepare for me.'

English - Five Volume Translation

He said, ‘O nobles, which of you will bring me a throne for her before they come to me, submitting?’[2839]

Commentary:

عرشھا (a throne for her) signifies the throne which Solomon had ordered to be built for the Queen in accordance with the custom of the day. It seemed to be a practice in vogue at that time that when the ruler of a State paid a visit to another ruler, a throne was built for the reception of the royal guest. Solomon also ordered a throne to be built for the reception of the Queen. It is called 'her throne' because it was specially built for her use.

The expression یأتینی (will bring me) means, will prepare for me.
