40:78

We did aforetime send messengers before thee: of them there are some whose story We have related to thee, and some whose story We have not related to thee. It was not (possible) for any messenger to bring a sign except by the leave of Allah: but when the Command of Allah issued, the matter was decided in truth and justice, and there perished, there and then those who stood on Falsehoods.

We have sent other messengers before you- some We have mentioned to you and some We have not- and no messenger could bring about a sign except with God’s permission. When [the Day] God ordained comes, just judgement will be passed between them: there and then, those who followed falsehood will be lost.

Verily We sent messengers before thee, among them those of whom We have told thee, and some of whom We have not told thee; and it was not given to any messenger that he should bring a portent save by Allah's leave, but when Allah's commandment cometh (the cause) is judged aright, and the followers of vanity will then be lost.

And We have already sent messengers before you. Among them are those [whose stories] We have related to you, and among them are those [whose stories] We have not related to you. And it was not for any messenger to bring a sign [or verse] except by permission of Allāh. So when the command of Allāh comes, it will be concluded [i.e., judged] in truth, and the falsifiers will thereupon lose [all].

And olsun ki, senden önce birçok peygamberler gönderdik; sana onların kimini anlattık, kimini anlatmadık; hiçbir peygamber, Allah'ın izni olmadan bir mucize getiremez. Allah'ın buyruğu gelince iş gerçekten biter. İşte o zaman, boşa uğraşanlar hüsranda kalırlar.

Andolsun ki biz senin önünden nice peygamberler göndermişizdir. Onlardan kimini sana anlatmışız, kimini de anlatmamışızdır. Hiçbir peygamber, Allah'ın izni olmaksızın bir mucize getiremez. Allah'ın emri gelince de hak yerine getirilir. Batıl bir dava peşinde koşanlar, işte bu noktada hüsrana uğrarlar.

Yemin olsun ki senden önce de elçiler göndermiştik. Onlardan kıssasını sana anlattıklarımız da var; kıssasını sana anlatmadıklarımız da var. Hiçbir elçi, Allah’ın izni olmaksızın herhangi bir ayet (mucize) getiremez. Allah’ın (azap) emri gelince de hüküm verilmiş (olur); batılı seçenler orada kaybetmiş (olacak)lardır.

ولقد أرسلنا مِن قبلك -أيها الرسول- رسلا كثيرين إلى قومهم يدعونهم، ويصبرون على أذاهم: منهم مَن قصصنا عليك خبرهم، ومنهم مَن لم نقصص عليك، وكلهم مأمورون بتبليغ وحي الله إليهم. وما كان لأحد منهم أن يأتي بآية من الآيات الحسية أو العقلية إلا بإذن الله ومشيئته، فإذا جاء أمر الله بعذاب المكذبين قُضِي بالعدل بين الرسل ومكذبيهم، وخسر هنالك المبطلون؛ لافترائهم على الله الكذب، وعبادتهم غيره.
