Translation

EN

Didst thou not Turn by vision to those who abandoned their homes, though they were thousands (In number), for fear of death? Allah said to them: "Die": Then He restored them to life. For Allah is full of bounty to mankind, but Most of them are ungrateful.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

[Prophet], consider those people who abandoned their homeland in fear of death, even though there were thousands of them. God said to them, ‘Die!’ and then brought them back to life again; God shows real favour to people, but most of them are ungrateful.

M.A.S. Abdel Haleemall-rights-reserved

Bethink thee (O Muhammad) of those of old, who went forth from their habitations in their thousands, fearing death, and Allah said unto them: Die; and then He brought them back to life. Lo! Allah is a Lord of Kindness to mankind, but most of mankind give not thanks.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

Have you not considered those who left their homes in many thousands, fearing death? Allāh said to them, "Die"; then He restored them to life. And Allāh is the possessor of bounty for the people, but most of the people do not show gratitude.

Binlerce kişinin memleketlerinden ölüm korkusuyla çıktıklarını görmedin mi? Allah onlara "Ölün" dedi. Sonra onları diriltti. Allah insanlara bol nimet verir, fakat insanların çoğu şükretmezler.

Görmedin mi o kimseleri ki kendileri binlerce kişi iken ölüm korkusuyla yurtlarından çıktılar. Allah da kendilerine "ölün!" dedi, sonra da onlara bir hayat verdi. Şüphesiz ki Allah, insanlara karşı bir lütuf sahibidir. Fakat insanların pek çokları şükretmezler.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

Binlerce (kişi) oldukları hâlde, ölüm korkusuyla yurtlarından çıkıp gidenleri görmedin mi? Allah onlara “(manevi olarak) ölün!” demişti; sonra da onları (manevi olarak) diriltmişti. Şüphesiz ki Allah insanlara karşı lütufkârdır. Fakat insanların çoğu şükretmez.

ألم تعلم -أيها الرسول- قصة الذين فرُّوا من أرضهم ومنازلهم، وهم ألوف كثيرة؛ خشية الموت من الطاعون أو القتال، فقال لهم الله: موتوا، فماتوا دفعة واحدة عقوبة على فرارهم من قدر الله، ثم أحياهم الله تعالى بعد مدة؛ ليستوفوا آجالهم، وليتعظوا ويتوبوا؟ إن الله لذو فضل عظيم على الناس بنعمه الكثيرة، ولكن أكثر الناس لا يشكرون فضل الله عليهم.
