11:88

قَالُوا۟ يَٰشُعَيْبُ أَصَلَوٰتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَن نَّتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ ءَابَآؤُنَآ أَوْ أَن نَّفْعَلَ فِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِنَا مَا نَشَٰٓؤُا۟ ۖ إِنَّكَ لَأَنتَ ٱلْحَلِيمُ ٱلرَّشِيدُ

English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ^ra

They replied, ‘O Shu‘aib, does thy Prayer bid thee that we should leave what our fathers worshipped, or that we cease to do with our property what we please? Thou art indeed very intelligent and rightminded.’

English - Five Volume Translation

They replied, ‘O Shu‘aib, does thy Prayer bid thee that we should leave what our fathers worshipped, or that we cease to do with our property what we please? Thou art indeed very intelligent and right-minded.’[1468]

Commentary:

The words, does thy Prayer bid thee, etc. have been spoken ironically. Shu‘aib’s opponents mean to say that they see nothing good in him except that he is given to the saying of Prayers and has no concern with the affairs of the world, not even knowing how to work and earn a respectable living. Should they too give themselves up to praying, which to him was the chief business of life, and part company with their hardly-won wealth and worldly honour? They were not going to be so foolish as to act upon his advice.

English - Short Commentary Translation

They replied, ‘O Shu‘aib, does thy Prayer bid thee that we should leave what our fathers worshipped, or that we cease to do with our property what we please? Surely, thou dost consider thyself very intelligent and right-minded.’

اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ

انہوں نے کہا اے شعیب! کیا تیری نماز تجھے حکم دیتی ہے کہ ہم اُسے چھوڑ دیں جس کی ہمارے باپ دادا عبادت کیا کرتے تھے یا ہم اپنے اموال میں وہ (تصرف نہ) کریں جو ہم چاہیں۔ یقیناً تو ضرور بڑا بردبار (اور) عقل والا (بنا پھرتا) ہے۔

French

Ils répondirent : « Ô Shu‘aib, ta Prière t’ordonne-t-elle que nous abandonnions ce que nos pères ont adoré ou que nous cessions de disposer de nos biens comme nous le voulons ? Sûrement, tu te prends pour très intelligent et sensé ! »

German

Sie antworteten: "O Schoäb, heißt dich dein Gebet, dass wir verlassen sollten, was unsere Väter anbeteten, oder dass wir aufhören, mit unserem Besitz zu tun, was uns gefällt? Du bist doch fürwahr klug (und) rechten Sinnes!"

Chinese

他们 (回答) 说: “舒艾布啊! 难道你的拜功令你叫我们放弃我们的祖先 (世代) 所崇拜的 (对象), 或我们 (停止任何) 由自己的意愿使用自己财产? 你确 (认为你自己) 是很有理智的, 很聪敏的。”

Italian

Essi risposero: «O Šu‘ayb, la tua preghiera ti ordina di chiederci di abbandonare quello che i nostri padri adoravano, o di smettere di usare come vogliamo il nostro patrimonio? Sei davvero molto intelligente e di animo retto.»

Spanish

Respondieron: “Oh Shu’aib, ¿te ordena por ventura tu Oración que abandonemos lo que adoraron nuestros padres, o que dejemos de hacer con nuestros bienes lo que nos plazca? En verdad, eres muy inteligente y recto”.

اردو تفسیرِ صغیر

انہوں نے کہا‘ اے شعیب! کیا تیری نماز تجھے حکم دیتی ہے کہ جس چیز کی ہمارے باپ دادا پرستش کرتے (آئے) ہیں اسے ہم چھوڑ دیں یا اس بات کو (ترک کر دیں) کہ اپنے مالوں کے متعلق ہم جو چاہیں کریں (اگر ایسا ہے) تو تو یقیناً بڑا ہی عقلمند (اور) سمجھ دار (آدمی)[1] ہے۔

یعنی اپنے خیال میں۔

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

انہوں نے جواب دیا "اے شعیبؑ، کیا تیری نماز تجھے یہ سکھاتی ہے کہ ہم ان سارے معبودوں کو چھوڑ دیں جن کی پر ستش ہمارے باپ دادا کرتے تھے؟ یا یہ کہ ہم کو اپنے مال میں اپنے منشا کے مطابق تصرف کرنے کا اختیار نہ ہو؟ بس تو ہی تو ایک عالی ظرف اور راستباز آدمی رہ گیا ہے!"

English - Sahih
