ضَرَبَ لَكُمْ مَّثَلًا مِّنْ اَنْفُسِكُمْ۝۰ۭ ہَلْ لَّكُمْ مِّنْ مَّا مَلَكَتْ اَيْمَانُكُمْ مِّنْ شُرَكَاۗءَ فِيْ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ فَاَنْتُمْ فِيْہِ سَوَاۗءٌ تَخَافُوْنَہُمْ كَخِيْفَتِكُمْ اَنْفُسَكُمْ۝۰ۭ كَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيٰتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَّعْقِلُوْنَ۝۲۸
Daraba lakum mathalan min anfusikum hal lakum mi mma malakat aymanukum min shurakaa fee ma razaqnakum faantum feehi sawaon takhafoonahum kakheefatikum anfusakum kathalika nufassilu alayati liqawmin yaAAqiloona

English

Ahmed Ali

He gives you an example from your own life: Do you possess among your dependants any partners in what We have bestowed on you, so that you and they have equal (share) in it, and that you fear them as you fear each other? That is how We explain Our signs clearly for those who comprehend.

28

بَلِ اتَّبَعَ الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْۗا اَہْوَاۗءَہُمْ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ۝۰ۚ فَمَنْ يَّہْدِيْ مَنْ اَضَلَّ اؙ۝۰ۭ وَمَا لَہُمْ مِّنْ نّٰصِرِيْنَ۝۲۹
Bali ittabaAAa allatheena thalamoo ahwaahum bighayri AAilmin faman yahdee man adalla Allahu wama lahum min nasireena

English

Ahmed Ali

And yet the wicked follow their own lusts without understanding. Who can show the way to those whom God allows to go astray? None will they have to help them.

29

فَاَقِـمْ وَجْہَكَ لِلدِّيْنِ حَنِيْفًا۝۰ۭ فِطْرَتَ اللہِ الَّتِيْ فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْہَا۝۰ۭ لَا تَبْدِيْلَ لِخَلْقِ اؘ۝۰ۭ ذٰلِكَ الدِّيْنُ الْـقَيِّمُ۝۰ۤۙ وَلٰكِنَّ اَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۳۰ۤۙ
Faaqim wajhaka lilddeeni haneefan fitrata Allahi allatee fatara alnnasa AAalayha la tabdeela likhalqi Allahi thalika alddeenu alqayyimu walakinna akthara alnnasi la yaAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

So keep yourself exclusively on the true way, the creational law of God according to which He created man with the quality of choosing right or wrong. There is no altering of God's creation. This is the supreme law. But most men do not understand.

30

مُنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْہِ وَاتَّقُوْہُ وَاَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوۃَ وَلَا تَكُوْنُوْا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِيْنَ۝۳۱ۙ
Muneebeena ilayhi waittaqoohu waaqeemoo alssalata wala takoonoo mina almushrikeena

English

Ahmed Ali

Turn towards Him and be dutiful to Him; be firm in devotion, and do not become an idolater,

31

مِنَ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَّقُوْا دِيْنَہُمْ وَكَانُوْا شِيَعًا۝۰ۭ كُلُّ حِزْبٍؚبِمَا لَدَيْہِمْ فَرِحُوْنَ۝۳۲
Mina allatheena farraqoo deenahum wakanoo shiyaAAan kullu hizbin bima ladayhim farihoona

English

Ahmed Ali

(Or) one of those who created rifts in their order and are divided into sects, with each group exulting in what it has (carved out for itself) --

32

وَاِذَا مَسَّ النَّاسَ ضُرٌّ دَعَوْا رَبَّہُمْ مُّنِيْبِيْنَ اِلَيْہِ ثُمَّ اِذَاۗ اَذَاقَہُمْ مِّنْہُ رَحْمَۃً اِذَا فَرِيْقٌ مِّنْہُمْ بِرَبِّہِمْ يُشْرِكُوْنَ۝۳۳ۙ
Waitha massa alnnasa durrun daAAaw rabbahum muneebeena ilayhi thumma itha athaqahum minhu rahmatan itha fareequn minhum birabbihim yushrikoona

English

Ahmed Ali

When misfortune befalls men they pray to their Lord and turn to Him; but afterwards when He has given them a taste of His benevolence a section of them begins to ascribe compeers to their Lord

33

لِيَكْفُرُوْا بِمَاۗ اٰتَيْنٰہُمْ۝۰ۭ فَتَمَتَّعُوْا۝۰۪ فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُوْنَ۝۳۴
Liyakfuroo bima ataynahum fatamattaAAoo fasawfa taAAlamoona

English

Ahmed Ali

So as to deny what We have given them. Please yourselves for a time; you will come to know soon.

34

اَمْ اَنْزَلْنَا عَلَيْہِمْ سُلْطٰنًا فَہُوَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا كَانُوْا بِہٖ يُشْرِكُوْنَ۝۳۵
Am anzalna AAalayhim sultanan fahuwa yatakallamu bima kanoo bihi yushrikoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Have We sent down a charter to them which mentions what they associate with Him?

35

وَاِذَاۗ اَذَقْنَا النَّاسَ رَحْمَۃً فَرِحُوْا بِہَا۝۰ۭ وَاِنْ تُصِبْہُمْ سَيِّئَۃٌۢ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ اَيْدِيْہِمْ اِذَا ہُمْ يَقْنَطُوْنَ۝۳۶
Waitha athaqna alnnasa rahmatan farihoo biha wain tusibhum sayyiatun bima qaddamat aydeehim itha hum yaqnatoona

English

Ahmed Ali

When We give men a taste of Our benevolence they start rejoicing in it. When misfortune befalls them as a result of what they have done themselves, they begin to despair.

36

اَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا اَنَّ اللہَ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ وَيَقْدِرُ۝۰ۭ اِنَّ فِيْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰيٰتٍ لِّـقَوْمٍ يُّؤْمِنُوْنَ۝۳۷
Awalam yaraw anna Allaha yabsutu alrrizqa liman yashao wayaqdiru inna fee thalika laayatin liqawmin yuminoona

English

Ahmed Ali

Do they not see God increases or decreases the means of whosoever He please? Verily there are signs in this for those who believe.
