Commentary:

The evil habit of ridiculing God’s Prophets referred to in v. 12 results in the hardening of the heart and debars the mockers from believing in their Prophet in spite of seeing clear signs in his support. The verse means to say that such has been the end of the scoffers of the Prophets in the past and such will be the end of those who mock at the Holy Prophet now.

وہ اِس پر ایمان نہیں لایا کرتے قدیم سے اِس قماش کے لوگوں کا یہی طریقہ چلا آ رہا ہے

اور کسی چیز نے لوگوں کونہیں روکا کہ جب ہدایت ان کے پاس آجائے تو ایمان لے آئیں اور اپنے ربّ سے استغفار کریں سوائے اس کے کہ (وہ چاہتے تھے کہ) ان پر پہلوں کی تاریخ دہرائی جائے یا پھر ان کی طرف تیزی سے بڑھنے والا عذاب انہیں آ پکڑے۔

French

Et rien n’empêcha les gens de croire et de rechercher le pardon de leur Seigneur lorsque leur est parvenue la direction, sinon le fait qu’ils choisirent de suivre la voie empruntée par les peuples antérieurs avec les mêmes conséquences, ou qu’ils ont attendu que le châtiment d’Allāh les heurte de front.

Und nichts hinderte die Menschen daran, zu glauben und ihren Herrn um Verzeihung zu bitten, (sie warteten) denn, bis das Beispiel der Früheren über sie käme oder die Strafe ihnen offen vor Augen gestellt würde.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

اور ان لوگوں کو جب ان کے پاس ہدایت آئی تو (اس پر) ایمان لانے اور اپنے رب سے بخشش چاہنے سے صرف اس بات نے روکا کہ پہلے لوگوں کی سی حالت ان پر (بھی) آئے‘ یا پھر عذاب ان کے سامنے آکھڑا ہو۔

17:95.

Commentary:

The Quran has explained all matters that concern man’s belief and conduct so completely and comprehensively that no room is left to an honest person but to accept truth and obey the Divine Call. But so perverse and wayward are disbelievers that they refuse to see reason and accept truth. Their obstinacy and hardness of heart seems to show that they will not be satisfied with anything but Divine punishment.

By the words سنة الاولین is meant the last and final Divine punishment which completely destroys disbelievers, while the expression اویاتیھم العذاب قبلا refers to intermediate punishments which come only to warn disbelievers and rouse them from their state of indifference and lethargy. The verse means to say that people to whom reference has been made in the foregoing verses will have both kinds of punishment.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اُن کے سامنے جب ہدایت آئی تو اسے ماننے اور اپنے رب کے حضور معافی چاہنے سے آخر اُن کوکس چیز نے روک دیا؟ اِس کے سوا اور کچھ نہیں کہ وہ منتظر ہیں کہ اُن کے ساتھ بھی وہی کچھ ہو جو پچھلی قوموں کے ساتھ ہو چکا ہے، یا یہ کہ وہ عذاب کو سامنے آتے دیکھ لیں!

English - Sahih

And nothing has prevented the people from believing when guidance came to them and from asking forgiveness of their Lord except that there [must] befall them the [accustomed] precedent of the former peoples or that the punishment should come [directly] before them.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اور جب ان کے پاس ہدایت آئی تو انہیں ایمان لانے اور اپنے رب سے معافی مانگنے سے کوئی چیز مانع نہیں ہوئی سوائے اس کے کہ انہیں پہلی امتوں کا سا معاملہ پیش آئے یا عذاب ان کے سامنے آجائے

English - Talal Itani

And nothing prevents men that they believe when has come to them the guidance and they ask forgiveness (of) their Lord, except that comes to them (the) way (of) the former (people) or comes to them the punishment before (them)?

English - Arberry

And naught prevented men from believing when the guidance came unto them, and seeking their Lord's forgiveness, but that the wont of the ancients should come upon them, or that the chastisement should come upon them face to face.

English - Maududi

What is it that prevented mankind from believing when the guidance came to them, and from asking forgiveness of their Lord, except that they would like to be treated as the nations of yore, or that they would like to see the scourge come upon them face to face?

English - Ahmed Ali

There is nothing to prevent men from believing when the guidance has come to them, and asking for their Lord's forgiveness, unless they want the example of earlier people visited upon them, or the punishment to appear right before their eyes.

English - Yusuf Ali

And what is there to keep back men from believing, now that Guidance has come to them, nor from praying for forgiveness from their Lord, but that (they ask that) the ways of the ancients be repeated with them, or the Wrath be brought to them face to face?

And naught hindereth mankind from believing when the guidance cometh unto them, and from asking forgiveness of their Lord unless (it be that they wish) that the judgment of the men of old should come upon them or (that) they should be confronted with the Doom.

English - Muhammad Ali ^ra

And nothing prevents men from believing when the guidance comes to them, and from asking forgiveness of their Lord, but that (they wait) for the way of the ancients to overtake them, or that the chastisement should confront them.

English - Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan ^ra

That which prevents people from believing when the guidance comes to them, or from asking forgiveness of their Lord is their desire that they should be afflicted in the same manner as the ancients or that punishment should come upon them face to face.
