Translation

EN

(Both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are sons of Allah, and his beloved." Say: "Why then doth He punish you for your sins? Nay, ye are but men,- of the men he hath created: He forgiveth whom He pleaseth, and He punisheth whom He pleaseth: and to Allah belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between: and unto Him is the final goal (of all)"

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

The Jews and the Christians say, ‘We are the children of God and His beloved ones.’ Say, ‘Then why does He punish you for your sins? You are merely human beings, part of His creation: He forgives whoever He will and punishes whoever He will. Control of the heavens and earth and all that is between them belongs to Him: all journeys lead to Him.’

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

The Jews and Christians say: We are sons of Allah and His loved ones. Say: Why then doth He chastise you for your sins? Nay, ye are but mortals of His creating. He forgiveth whom He will, and chastiseth whom He will. Allah's is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, and unto Him is the journeying.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

But the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the children of Allāh and His beloved." Say, "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the [final] destination.

Yahudiler ve hıristiyanlar, "Biz Allah'ın oğulları ve sevgilileriyiz" dediler. "Öyleyse günahlarınızdan ötürü size niçin azabediyor? Bilakis siz O'nun yarattığı insanlarsınız" de, Allah dilediğini bağışlar, dilediğine azab eder. Göklerin, yerin ve ikisinin arasındakilerin hükümranlığı Allah'ındır. Dönüş O'nadır.

Yahudiler ve hıristiyanlar, "Biz Allah'ın oğulları ve sevgilileriyiz" dediler. De ki: " O halde niçin günahlarınızdan ötürü (Allah) size azab ediyor?" Hayır, siz de O'nun yaratıklarından birer insansınız. O dilediğini bağışlar, dilediğine azab eder. Göklerin, yerin ve ikisi arasında bulunan her şeyin mülkü Allah'ındır. Nihayet dönüş de O'nadır.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

(Bazı) yahudi ve hristiyanlar “Biz Allah’ın çocuklarıyız ve sevgilileriyiz!” demişlerdi. De ki: “(Öyleyse) günahlarınızdan dolayı size niçin azap ediyor? Doğrusu siz de O’nun yarattıklarından birer insansınız. (Allah) dileyeni (layık gördüğünü) bağışlar; dileyene (layık gördüğüne) de azap eder. Göklerde, yerde ve ikisi arasında ne varsa hepsinin otoritesi yalnızca Allah’a aittir. Dönüş de yalnızca O’nadır.”

وزعم اليهود والنصارى أنهم أبناء الله وأحباؤه، قل لهم -أيها الرسول-: فَلأيِّ شيء يعذِّبكم بذنوبكم؟ فلو كنتم أحبابه ما عذبكم، فالله لا يحب إلا من أطاعه، وقل لهم: بل أنتم خلقٌ مثلُ سائر بني آدم، إن أحسنتُم جوزيتم بإحسانكم خيرا، وإن أسَأْتُم جوزيتم بإساءتكم شرًّا، فالله يغفر لمن يشاء، ويعذب من يشاء، وهو مالك الملك، يُصَرِّفه كما يشاء، وإليه المرجع، فيحكم بين عباده، ويجازي كلا بما يستحق.
