Translation

O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you. If ye differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe in Allah and the Last Day: That is best, and most suitable for final determination.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

You who believe, obey God and the Messenger, and those in authority among you. If you are in dispute over any matter, refer it to God and the Messenger, if you truly believe in God and the Last Day: that is better and fairer in the end.

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

O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the messenger and those of you who are in authority; and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah and the messenger if ye are (in truth) believers in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more seemly in the end.

Ey İnananlar! Allah'a itaat edin, Peygambere ve sizden buyruk sahibi olanlara itaat edin. Eğer bir şeyde çekişirseniz, Allah'a ve ahiret gününe inanmışsanız onun halini Allah'a ve Peygambere bırakın. Bu, hayırlı ve netice itibariyle en güzeldir.

Ey iman edenler! Allah'a itaat edin, Peygambere de itaat edin ve sizden olan emir sahibine de itaat edin. Eğer herhangi bir şeyde anlaşmazlığa düşerseniz; Allah'a ve ahiret gününe gerçekten inanıyorsanız, onu Allah ve Resulüne arz edin. Bu, daha iyidir ve sonuç bakımından da daha güzeldir.

Ey iman edenler! Allah’a itaat edin; Elçi'ye ve sizden olan emir sahiplerine de itaat edin! Bir konuda anlaşmazlığa düşerseniz Allah’a ve ahirete inanıyorsanız onu Allah’a ve Elçi'ye götürün! Bu (tutum) hem hayırlı olandır hem de sonuç itibarıyla daha güzeldir.

يا أيها الذين صدَّقوا الله ورسوله وعملوا بشرعه، استجيبوا لأوامر الله تعالى ولا تعصوه، واستجيبوا للرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم فيما جاء به من الحق، وأطيعوا ولاة أمركم في غير معصية الله، فإن اختلفتم في شيء بينكم، فأرجعوا الحكم فيه إلى كتاب الله تعالى وسنة رسوله محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، إن كنتم تؤمنون حق الإيمان بالله تعالى وبيوم الحساب. ذلك الردُّ إلى الكتاب والسنة خير لكم من التنازع والقول بالرأي، وأحسن عاقبة ومآلا.
