Translation

EN

It is Allah that takes the souls (of men) at death; and those that die not (He takes) during their sleep: those on whom He has passed the decree of death, He keeps back (from returning to life), but the rest He sends (to their bodies) for a term appointed verily in this are Signs for those who reflect.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

God takes the souls of the dead and the souls of the living while they sleep- He keeps hold of those whose death He has ordained and sends the others back until their appointed time- there truly are signs in this for those who reflect.

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

Allah receiveth (men's) souls at the time of their death, and that (soul) which dieth not (yet) in its sleep. He keepeth that (soul) for which He hath ordained death and dismisseth the rest till an appointed term. Lo! herein verily are portents for people who take thought.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

Allāh takes the souls at the time of their death, and those that do not die [He takes] during their sleep. Then He keeps those for which He has decreed death and releases the others for a specified term. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.

Allah, öleceklerin ölümleri anında, ölmeyeceklerin de uykuları esnasında ruhlarını alır. Ölmelerine hükmettiği kimselerinkini tutar, diğerlerini bir süreye kadar salıverir. Doğrusu bunda düşünen kimseler için dersler vardır.

Diyanet İşleriall-rights-reserved

Allah, o canları öldükleri zaman, ölmeyenleri de uyuduklarında alır. Sonra haklarında ölüm hükmü verdiklerini alıkor, diğerlerini de takdir edilmiş bir süreye kadar salıverir. Şüphesiz ki bunda düşünecek bir kavim için nice ibretler vardır.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

Allah (nefislerin) ölüm zamanı gelince, ölmeyenin de uykusundayken nefisleri vefat ettirir. Ölümüne hükmettiğini (kişinin ruhunu katında) tutar; diğerini ise (ölüm zamanı gelmeyeni ise) belirlenmiş bir süreye kadar (kişiye) gönderir. Şüphesiz ki bunda düşünen bir toplum için dersler vardır.

الله- سبحانه وتعالى- هو الذي يقبض الأنفس حين موتها، وهذه الوفاة الكبرى، وفاة الموت بانقضاء الأجل، ويقبض التي لم تمت في منامها، وهي الموتة الصغرى، فيحبس من هاتين النفسين النفس التي قضى عليها الموت، وهي نفس مَن مات، ويرسل النفس الأخرى إلى استكمال أجلها ورزقها، وذلك بإعادتها إلى جسم صاحبها، إن في قبض الله نفس الميت والنائم وإرساله نفس النائم، وحبسه نفس الميت لَدلائل واضحة على قدرة الله لمن تفكر وتدبر.
