اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
اور تمہارے اموال اور تمہاری اولاد ایسی چیزیں نہیں جو تمہیں ہمارے نزدیک مرتبہء قرب تک لے آئیں۔ سوائے اس کے جو ایمان لایا اور نیک اعمال بجا لایا۔ پس یہی وہ لوگ ہیں جن کو اُن کے اعمال کے بدلے جو وہ کرتے تھے، دُہری جزا دی جائے گی اور وہ بالاخانوں میں امن کے ساتھ رہنے والے ہیں۔
French
Et ce ne sont pas vos biens ni vos enfants qui vous amèneront plus près de Nous en rang, mais ceux qui croient et font de bonnes œuvres, auront une double récompense pour ce qu’ils faisaient. Et ils seront en sécurité dans des Résidences élevées.
German
Und es ist nicht euer Gut, noch sind es eure Kinder, die euch Uns nahe bringen werden; die aber, die glauben und gute Werke tun, die sollen vielfachen Lohn erhalten für das, was sie getan. Und in den hohen Hallen (des Paradieses) sollen sie sicher wohnen.

Non saranno certo i vostri beni o i vostri figli a farvi salire più vicino a Noi di grado, ma coloro che credono e fanno opere buone avranno una doppia ricompensa per le loro azioni. E abiteranno sicuri in posizioni elevate.
Spanish
No son vuestra riqueza ni vuestros hijos los que os llevarán más cerca de Nosotros en consideración, pero quienes crean y practiquen las buenas obras, tendrán una doble recompensa por lo que hicieron. Y en mansiones elevadas estarán seguros.
اردو تفسیرِ صغیر
اور تمہارے مال اور تمہاری اولادیں ایسی چیز نہیں کہ تم کو ہمارا مقرب بنا دیں‘ ہاں جو ایمان لاتا ہے اور اس کے مناسب حال عمل کرتا ہے (وہی ہمارا مقرب ہوتا ہے) اور ایسے ہی لوگوں کوان کے اچھے اعمال کی وجہ سے بڑھ بڑھ کر بدلے ملیں گے اور وہ بالاخانوں میں امن سے زندگی بسر کریں گے۔
English - Short Commentary Translation
And it is not your wealth nor your children that will bring you near Us in rank but [a]those, who believe and do good works,[2400] will have a double reward for what they did. [b]And in lofty mansions will they be secure.
3:58; 6:49; 18:89; 19:61.
25:76.
Wealth, power and position are not the means of achieving nearness to God. On the contrary, they tend to keep men away from Him. It is right belief and good actions which are man’s real wealth and which can bring him salvation and God’s pleasure.
English - Five Volume Translation
And it is not your wealth nor your children that will bring you near Us in rank but [b]those who believe and do good works, will have a double reward for what they did. [c]And in lofty mansions will they be secure. [3161]

25:76.
Commentary:
The verse seeks to remove the assumption by disbelievers of fancied and false superiority based on wealth, power and position, referred to in v. 36 and means to say that these things are not the means of achieving nearness to God. On the contrary, they tend to keep man away from Him. It is right belief and good actions which are his real wealth and which can bring him salvation and God’s pleasure.
اردو ترجمہ مودودی
یہ تمہاری دولت اور تمہاری اولاد نہیں ہے جو تمہیں ہم سے قریب کرتی ہو ہاں مگر جو ایمان لائے اور نیک عمل کرے یہی لوگ ہیں جن کے لیے اُن کے عمل کی دہری جزا ہے، اور وہ بلند و بالا عمارتوں میں اطمینان سے رہیں گے

And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you nearer to Us in position, but it is [by being] one who has believed and done righteousness. For them there will be the double reward for what they did, and they will be in the upper chambers [of Paradise], safe [and secure].
اردو ترجمہ احمد علی
اور تمہاے مال اور اولاد ایسی چیز نہیں جو تمہیں مرتبہ میں ہمارے قریب کر دے مگر جو ایمان لایا اور نیک کام کیے پس وہی لوگ ہیں جن کے لئے دگنا بدلہ ہے اس کا جو انہوں نے کیا اور وہی بالاخانوں میں امن سے ہوں گے

أَلَا لِلَّهِ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلْخَالِصُ ۚ وَٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ أَوْلِيَآءَ مَا نَعْبُدُهُمْ إِلَّا لِيُقَرِّبُونَآ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ زُلْفَىٰٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَحْكُمُ بَيْنَهُمْ فِى مَا هُمْ فِيهِ يَخْتَلِفُونَ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يَهْدِى مَنْ هُوَ كَٰذِبٌ كَفَّارٌ
English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
Hearken, it is to Allah alone that sincere obedience is due. And those who take for protectors others beside Him say, ‘We serve them only that they may bring us near to Allah in station.’ Surely, Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Surely, Allah guides not him who is an ungrateful liar.
اردو ترجمہ مرزا طاہر احمد خلیفة المسیح الرابعؒ
خبردار! خالص دین ہی اللہ کے شایانِ شان ہے اور وہ لوگ جنہوں نے اُس کے سوا دوست اپنا لئے ہیں (کہتے ہیں کہ) ہم اس مقصد کے سوا اُن کی عبادت نہیں کرتے کہ وہ ہمیں اللہ کے قریب کرتے ہوئے قرب کے اونچے مقام تک پہنچادیں۔ یقیناً اللہ اُن کے درمیان اُس کا فیصلہ کرے گا جس میں وہ اختلاف کیا کرتے تھے۔ اللہ ہرگز اُسے ہدایت نہیں دیتا جو جھوٹا (اور) سخت ناشکرا ہو۔
French
Ecoutez, c’est uniquement à Allāh qu’est due l’obéissance sincère. Et ceux qui en prennent d’autres en dehors de Lui pour protecteurs disent : « Nous les servons seulement pour qu’ils nous rapprochent d’Allāh. » Assurément, Allāh jugera entre eux à propos de ce sur quoi ils étaient en désaccord. Assurément, Allāh ne guide pas celui qui est un menteur ingrat.
German
Fürwahr, Allah (allein) gebührt lauterer Gehorsam. Und diejenigen, die sich andere zu Beschützern nehmen statt Ihn (sprechen): "Wir dienen ihnen nur, damit sie uns Allah nahebringen." Allah wird zwischen ihnen richten über das, worin sie uneins sind. Wahrlich, Allah weist nicht dem den Weg, der ein Lügner, ein Undankbarer ist.
Chinese
Italian
Ascolta: solo ad Allah è dovuta obbedienza sincera. E quelli che adottano altri protettori all'infuori di Lui dicono: «Li serviamo solo affinché ci conducano in una posizione più vicina ad Allah.» Di certo, Allah giudicherà tra di loro per quanto riguarda ciò su cui dissentono. Certamente, Allah non guida colui che è un mentitore ingrato.
Spanish
Escuchad: sólo a Al‑lah se le debe sincera obediencia. Y quienes toman por protectores a otros distintos de Él, dicen: “Los servimos únicamente para que nos lleven a un nivel próximo a Al‑lah”. En verdad, Al‑lah juzgará entre ellos en cuanto a lo que disputan. Ciertamente Al-lah no guía al mentiroso desagradecido.
اردو تفسیرِ صغیر
سنو‘ اطاعت خالص اللہ ہی کا حق ہے اور جو لوگ اس کے سوا اور ہستیوں کو دوست بناتے ہیں (یہ کہتے ہوئے) کہ ہم ان کی عبادت صرف اس لئے کرتے ہیں کہ وہ ہمیں اللہ کے قریب[1] کر دیں۔ اللہ ان کے درمیان ان باتوں کے متعلق جن میں وہ اختلاف رکھتے ہیں فیصلہ کرے گا۔ اللہ یقیناً جھوٹے اور ناشکر گذار کو کامیابی کا راستہ نہیں دکھاتا۔
آج کل مسلمانوں میں سے ملحد اسی بہانہ سے شرک کرتے ہیں مگر پرانے مشرکوں میں سے بھی بعض لوگ شرک کی یہی تاویل کرتے تھے۔

Remember, it is to Allah alone that sincere obedience is due. And those who take as protectors others beside Him, say, ‘We serve them only that they may bring us near to Allah in station.’[2562] Surely, [d]Allah will judge between them concerning that wherein they differ. Surely, Allah guides not him who is an ungrateful liar.
4:142; 22:70; 32:26.
Man is prone to worship false gods, the idols of his own imagination, such as saints and holy men; wealth, power and passion; inherited beliefs and customs, etc. always pretending to believe that these can help him to understand and realize the Divine Being.

خبردار، دین خالص اللہ کا حق ہے رہے وہ لوگ جنہوں نے اُس کے سوا دوسرے سرپرست بنا رکھے ہیں (اور اپنے اِس فعل کی توجیہ یہ کرتے ہیں کہ) ہم تو اُن کی عبادت صرف اس لیے کرتے ہیں کہ وہ اللہ تک ہماری رسائی کرا دیں، اللہ یقیناً اُن کے درمیان اُن تمام باتوں کا فیصلہ کر دے گا جن میں وہ اختلاف کر رہے ہیں اللہ کسی ایسے شخص کو ہدایت نہیں دیتا جو جھوٹا اور منکر حق ہو
English - Sahih
Unquestionably, for Allah is the pure religion. And those who take protectors besides Him [say], "We only worship them that they may bring us nearer to Allah in position." Indeed, Allah will judge between them concerning that over which they differ. Indeed, Allah does not guide he who is a liar and [confirmed] disbeliever.
اردو ترجمہ احمد علی
خبردار! خالص فرمانبرداری الله ہی کے لیے ہے جنہوں نے اس کے سوا اور کارساز بنا لیے ہیں ہم ان کی عبادت نہیں کرتے مگر اس لیے کہ وہ ہمیں الله سے قریب کر دیں بے شک الله ان کے درمیان ان باتوں میں فیصلہ کرے گا جن میں وہ اختلاف کرتےتھے بے شک الله اسے ہدایت نہیں کرتا جو جھوٹا ناشکرگزار ہو

English - Arberry
Belongs not sincere religion to God? And those who take protectors, apart from Him -- 'We only serve them that they may bring us nigh in nearness to God' -- surely God shall judge between them touching that whereon they are at variance. Surely God guides not him who is a liar, unthankful.
English - Maududi
Lo, religion is exclusively devoted to Allah. Your religion is entirely consecrated to Him. As for those who have taken others than Allah for their guardians, (they say): “We worship them only that they may bring us nearer to Allah.” Allah will judge between them concerning what they differ about. Verily Allah does not guide anyone who is given to sheer lying, is an utter unbeliever.
English - Ahmed Ali
Remember that devotion is exclusively for God. Those who have taken protectors other than Him, say: "We worship them that they may bring us nearer to God." Surely God will judge between them in what they are differing about. Verily God does not show the way to an ungrateful liar.
English - Yusuf Ali
Is it not to Allah that sincere devotion is due? But those who take for protectors other than Allah (say): "We only serve them in order that they may bring us nearer to Allah." Truly Allah will judge between them in that wherein they differ. But Allah guides not such as are false and ungrateful.
