قُلْ Say اِنَّمَاۤ Only اَعِظُكُمْ I advise you بِوَاحِدَةٍ ۚ for one (thing) اَنْ that تَقُوْمُوْا you stand لِلّٰهِ for Allah مَثْنٰی (in) pairs وَ فُرَادٰی and (as) individuals ثُمَّ then تَتَفَكَّرُوْا ۫ reflect مَا Not بِصَاحِبِكُمْ (is in) your companion مِّنْ any جِنَّةٍ ؕ madness اِنْ Not هُوَ he اِلَّا (is) except نَذِیْرٌ a warner لَّكُمْ for you بَیْنَ before یَدَیْ before عَذَابٍ a punishment شَدِیْدٍ severe قُلْ Say مَا Not سَاَلْتُكُمْ I ask you مِّنْ for اَجْرٍ any payment فَهُوَ but it (is) لَكُمْ ؕ for you اِنْ Not اَجْرِیَ (is) my payment اِلَّا but عَلَی from اللّٰهِ ۚ Allah وَ هُوَ And He عَلٰی (is) over كُلِّ all شَیْءٍ things شَهِیْدٌ a Witness قُلْ Say اِنَّ Indeed رَبِّیْ my Lord یَقْذِفُ projects بِالْحَقِّ ۚ the truth عَلَّامُ (the) All-Knower الْغُیُوْبِ (of) the unseen 34. Saba Page 434 قُلْ Say جَآءَ Has come الْحَقُّ the truth وَ مَا and not یُبْدِئُ (can) originate الْبَاطِلُ the falsehood وَ مَا and not یُعِیْدُ repeat قُلْ Say اِنْ If ضَلَلْتُ I err فَاِنَّمَاۤ then only اَضِلُّ I will err عَلٰی against نَفْسِیْ ۚ myself وَ اِنِ But if اهْتَدَیْتُ I am guided فَبِمَا then it is by what یُوْحِیْۤ reveals اِلَیَّ to me رَبِّیْ ؕ my Lord اِنَّهٗ Indeed He سَمِیْعٌ (is) All-Hearer قَرِیْبٌ Ever-Near وَ لَوْ And if تَرٰۤی you (could) see اِذْ when فَزِعُوْا they will be terrified فَلَا but (there will be) no فَوْتَ escape وَ اُخِذُوْا and they will be seized مِنْ from مَّكَانٍ a place قَرِیْبٍۙ near وَّ قَالُوْۤا And they will say اٰمَنَّا We believe بِهٖ ۚ in it وَ اَنّٰی But how لَهُمُ for them التَّنَاوُشُ (will be) the receiving مِنْ from مَّكَانٍۭ a place بَعِیْدٍۚۖ far off وَّ قَدْ And certainly كَفَرُوْا they disbelieved بِهٖ in it مِنْ before قَبْلُ ۚ before وَ یَقْذِفُوْنَ And they utter conjectures بِالْغَیْبِ about the unseen مِنْ from مَّكَانٍۭ a place بَعِیْدٍ far off وَ حِیْلَ And a barrier will be placed بَیْنَهُمْ between them وَ بَیْنَ and between مَا what یَشْتَهُوْنَ they desire كَمَا as فُعِلَ was done بِاَشْیَاعِهِمْ with their kind مِّنْ before قَبْلُ ؕ before اِنَّهُمْ Indeed, they كَانُوْا were فِیْ in شَكٍّ doubt مُّرِیْبٍ۠ disquieting
46. Say: “I exhort you to one thing: that for , Allah’s sake you stand up by twos and singly, and ponder: 90 there is no madness in your comrade.91 He is nothing else than warner to you against a terrible punishment.”
47. Say: “Whatever recompense I have asked of you is for you only. 92 My reward is the concern of Allah only. He is a Witness to all things.”
48. Say: “Verily, my Lord hurls (reveals) the truth. (He is) the Knower of Things Hidden.93
49. Say: “The Truth has come. Falsehood neither creates for the first time, nor will it create again.94”
50. Say: “If I am In error, the loss is surely mine;95 and if I am rightly guided, it is because of that which my Lord has revealed to me. 96 Verily , He is Hearer, Near at hand.97”
51. If you could only see when they are seized with terror! They will not be able to escape and will be seized from near at hand.98 (
52. At that time) they will say: “We believe in it.99” But how can they reach (faith) from a distant place.
53. 100 When they at first denied it. They aim at the unseen from a distant. 101
54. And an obstruction is set between them and their desire, as was done 102 for the people of their kind in the past. Verily they were in perplexing hopeless doubt.103
90. Man is Mostly influenced by his environment and the opinion of the society around him, and does not take the trouble to find out what is the truth and what is falsehood. In this ayah it is suggested that people should reflect in pairs whether what the Prophet teaches is ravings of a mad man or it contains provision for intellectual and visionary consumption. they should discuss this point seriously among themselves and reach the correct conclusion. They should also individually give a thought to this matter and try to ponder what is the nature of the case. If this method is adopted seriously, then it would not be difficult to reach the correct solution. Allah will definitely guide them, for those who are in search of truth, Allah reveals the truth to them.
91. The clean character of the Prophet, Sallal Lahu Alaihi Wa Sallam, and this full of wisdom Quran are the proof of this clear fact that he was not at all afflicted by any mental disease, but that his wisdom and intellect had reached the zenith of perfection.
92. It means that I have not asked for any recompense from you. Whatever I have asked of you is this that you should accept this guidance which your Lord has revealed and accepting which is in your own interest. I am totally disinterested and am only trying to serve you.
93. Whatever my Lord reveals to me is truth and why it should not be the truth when the knowledge of all things hidden is possessed by Him. Who can be more knowledgeable than Him to know what is right and what is wrong, what is true and what is false.
94. That is: This fact has clearly come to your notice that Tawheed is the truth. As for the falsehood, that is your deities, then they have neither the power to create anything, nor to revive, anybody. Then how can they become gods and worthy of worship?
For further explanation, see Surah Yunus, Note No.61
95. During debates certain presumptions have to be made, so that the addressee may reflect rising above his prejudice. Here the words. If I am in error have been spoken merely as a presumption.
96. That is: My being rightly guided is on account of the favour of my Lord, and His favour is that He sent down His revelations to me and opened up the path of right guidance for me.
97. The big reason for man’s misguidance is that he thinks that Allah is far away from him, and then he seeks support here and there. If he would believe that Allah is near at hand and hears every thing, then he would establish his relationship with Him, and would consider Him to be his Helper.
98. Here one more scene of the Day of Resurrection is being presented. Today the deniers, oppose the truth very comfortably, but on the Day of Resurrection they will be in a state of terror, and will be trying to escape, but will not be able to run away, because the angles will be nearby and they will seize them. What a scene of their helplessness !
99. That is: They believed in the truth which Allah revealed to His messenger.
100. That is: The time for accepting faith has passed away. The work which was to be done in the world, how can it be done in the Hereafter? The world is the testing ground, and the Hereafter is the place to receive the reward or punishment. When man, reached the Hereafter, the world receded into distance, and after drifting away so far off from the place of test, there is no possibility of accepting faith.
101. In the world they had the opportunity to accept faith, but they indulged in nonsensical talk and lost that opportunity.
102. That is: between them and their desire that they should be sent again in the world obstructions will be placed, that is this desire of theirs will never be fulfilled, and the same had been the fate of those nations who had lived earlier than them.
103. God, Hereafter and Prophet being in doubt about these three can result only in dissatisfaction and restlessness, and the mind may be in constant anguish.
