Translation

EN

When there comes to them some matter touching (Public) safety or fear, they divulge it. If they had only referred it to the Messenger, or to those charged with authority among them, the proper investigators would have Tested it from them (direct). Were it not for the Grace and Mercy of Allah unto you, all but a few of you would have fallen into the clutches of Satan.

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

Whenever news of any matter comes to them, whether concerning peace or war, they spread it about; if they referred it to the Messenger and those in authority among them, those seeking its meaning would have found it out from them. If it were not for God’s bounty and mercy towards you, you would almost all have followed Satan.

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

And if any tidings, whether of safety or fear, come unto them, they noise it abroad, whereas if they had referred it to the messenger and to such of them as are in authority, those among them who are able to think out the matter would have known it. If it had not been for the grace of Allah upon you and His mercy ye would have followed Satan, save a few (of you).

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

And when there comes to them something [i.e., information] about [public] security or fear, they spread it around. But if they had referred it back to the Messenger or to those of authority among them, then the ones who [can] draw correct conclusions from it would have known about it. And if not for the favor of Allāh upon you and His mercy, you would have followed Satan, except for a few.

Kendilerine güven veya korku hususunda bir haber geldiğinde onu yayarlar; halbuki o haberi Peygamber'e veya kendilerinden buyruk sahibi olanlara götürselerdi, onlardan sonuç çıkarmaya kadir olanlar onu bilirdi. Allah'ın size bol nimeti ve rahmeti olmasaydı, pek azınız bir yana, şeytana uyardınız.

Kendilerine güven veya korku hususunda bir haber geldiğinde onu hemen yayıverirler. Halbuki onu peygambere ve aralarında yetkili kimselere götürselerdi, onlardan sonuç çıkarmaya gücü yetenler, onu anlarlardı. Allah'ın üzerinizdeki lütfu ve rahmeti olmasaydı, pek azınız hariç, şeytana uyardınız.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

Onlara güven veya korkuya dair bir haber gelince hemen onu yayarlar. (Oysa) onu, Elçi'ye veya aralarında yetki sahibi kişilere götürselerdi, onların arasından işin içyüzünü anlayanlar, onun ne olduğunu bilirlerdi. Allah’ın size bol lütfu ve merhameti olmasaydı, azınız hariç elbette şeytana uyardınız.

وإذا جاء هؤلاء الذين لم يستقر الإيمان في قلوبهم أمْرٌ يجب كتمانه متعلقًا بالأمن الذي يعود خيره على الإسلام والمسلمين، أو بالخوف الذي يلقي في قلوبهم عدم الاطمئنان، أفشوه وأذاعوا به في الناس، ولو ردَّ هؤلاء ما جاءهم إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وإلى أهل العلم والفقه لَعَلِمَ حقيقة معناه أهل الاستنباط منهم. ولولا أنْ تَفَضَّلَ الله عليكم ورحمكم لاتبعتم الشيطان ووساوسه إلا قليلا منكم.
