And for certain We have made distinct in this Proclamatory Reading for the people from all examples; while has been, the human, of many things, argumentative.

⦿
And verily We have displayed for mankind in this Qur'an all manner of similitudes, but man is more than anything contentious.

We have certainly interspersed this Quran with every kind of parable for the people. But man is the most disputatious of creatures.
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
We have given various examples in this Quran for people to learn a lesson, but the human being is the most contentious creature.

And certainly We have explained in this Quran every kind of example, and man is most of all given to contention.

And not prevented the people that they have conviction when came to them the guidance, and that they ask for forgiveness of their Rabb, except that they're presented with ways of the former people or comes to them the punishment of before.

⦿
And naught hindereth mankind from believing when the guidance cometh unto them, and from asking forgiveness of their Lord unless (it be that they wish) that the judgment of the men of old should come upon them or (that) they should be confronted with the Doom.
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
Nothing has kept these people from believing and pleading to their Lord for forgiveness when guidance came to them, except [their demand] that the precedent of the ancients come to pass for them, or that the punishment come to them, face to face.
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
What prevents people from having faith when guidance comes to them or from asking for forgiveness from their Lord before they face the kind of torment that the ancient people experienced or a new form of torment.

- Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
اُن کے سامنے جب ہدایت آئی تو اسے ماننے اور اپنے رب کے حضور معافی چاہنے سے آخر اُن کوکس چیز نے روک دیا؟ اِس کے سوا اور کچھ نہیں کہ وہ منتظر ہیں کہ اُن کے ساتھ بھی وہی کچھ ہو جو پچھلی قوموں کے ساتھ ہو چکا ہے، یا یہ کہ وہ عذاب کو سامنے آتے دیکھ لیں!
- Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اور آدمیوں کو کسی چیز نے اس سے روکا کہ ایمان لاتے جب ہدایت ان کے پاس آئی اور اپنے رب سے معافی مانگتے مگر یہ کہ ان پر اگلوں کا دستور آئے یا ان پر قسم قسم کا عذاب آئے،
- Ahmed Raza
⦿
اور جب لوگوں کے پاس ہدایت آگئی ہے تو ان کو ایمان لانے اور مغفرت طلب کرنے سے منع نہیں کیا۔ مگر اس چیز نے کہ اگلی قوموں کا معاملہ انہیں بھی پیش آئے یا عذاب ان کے سامنے آئے۔

And not We send the Messengers except as bearers of good news and bearers of warnings, while argue, the ones who are in denial, with fiction, for disproving with it the fact, and they take My signs, and what they're warned for, as mockery.

⦿
We send not the messengers save as bearers of good news and warners. Those who disbelieve contend with falsehood in order to refute the Truth thereby. And they take Our revelations and that wherewith they are threatened as a jest.
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
We do not send the apostles except as bearers of good news and as warners, but those who are faithless dispute fallaciously to refute thereby the truth, having taken My signs and what they are warned of in derision.
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
The only reason for Our sending the Messengers is to give the human being the glad news of Our mercy and to warn him about Our wrath. The disbelievers argue by false means to refute the Truth. They mock My miracles and warnings.
- Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
And We do not send apostles but as givers of good news and warning, and those who disbelieve make a false contention that they may render null thereby the truth, and they take My communications and that with which they are warned for a mockery.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
We only send the messengers to bring good news and to give warning. Those who deny use fallacious arguments to nullify the truth, treating My revelations and My warnings as a jest.

اور ہم تو رسولوں کو صرف بشارت دینے والا اور عذاب سے ڈرانے والا بناکر بھیجتے ہیں اور کفاّر باطل کے ذریعہ جھگڑا کرتے ہیں کہ اس کے ذریعہ کو برباد کردیں اور انہوں نے ہماری نشانیوں کو اور جس بات سے ڈرائے گئے تھے سب کو ایک مذاق بنالیا ہے
- Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
رسولوں کو ہم اس کام کے سوا اور کسی غرض کے لیے نہیں بھیجتے کہ وہ بشارت اور تنبیہ کی خدمت انجام دے دیں مگر کافروں کا حال یہ ہے کہ وہ باطل کے ہتھیار لے کر حق کو نیچا دکھانے کی کوشش کرتے ہیں اور انہوں نے میری آیات کو اور اُن تنبیہات کو جو انہیں کی گئیں مذاق بنا لیا ہے
- Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اور ہم رسولوں کو نہیں بھیجتے مگر خوشی ڈر سنانے والے اور جو کافر ہیں وہ باطل کے ساتھ جھگڑتے ہیں کہ اس سے حق کو ہٹادیں اور انہوں نے میری آیتوں کی اور جو ڈر انہیں سناتے گئے تھے،

⦿
And who doth greater wrong than he who hath been reminded of the revelations of his Lord, yet turneth away from them and forgetteth what his hands send forward (to the Judgment)? Lo! on their hearts We have placed coverings so that they understand not, and in their ears a deafness. And though thou call them to the guidance, in that case they can never be led aright.
- Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
Who is a greater wrongdoer than he who is reminded of the signs of his Lord, whereat he disregards them and forgets what his hands have sent ahead? Indeed We have cast veils on their hearts lest they should understand it, and a deafness into their ears; and if you invite them to guidance they will never [let themselves] be guided.
- Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
Who are more unjust than those who are reminded of the revelations of their Lord but have disregarded them and have forgotten their deeds? We have veiled their hearts and sealed their ears so that they cannot understand. Even if you call them to the right path, they will never accept guidance.
- Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
And who is more unjust than he who is reminded of the communications of his Lord, then he turns away from them and forgets what his two hands have sent before? Surely We have placed veils over their hearts lest they should understand it and a heaviness in their ears; and if you call them to the guidance, they will not ever follow the right course in that case.
- Shakir, Habib
⦿
Who is more wicked than he who has been reminded of the revelations of his Lord, then turns away from them and forgets what his own hands have done?

اور آپ کا پروردگار بڑا بخشنے والا، رحمت والا ہے اگر وہ لوگوں سے ان کے کئے (گناہوں) کا مواخذہ کرتا تو جلدی ہی میں ان پر عذاب نازل کر دیتا مگر ان کے لئے ایک میعاد ٹھہرا دی گئی ہے اس سے ادھر (پہلے) کوئی جائے پناہ نہیں پائیں گے۔

This website is a work of passion. It exists only for a couple of reasons:

1) I wanted to understand the Book without involving any second-party sources of guidance i.e. exegesis, or Asbab-e-Nuzul, or extra-Quranic ahadith, etc.
2) You must also know what the bare truth is, so we can work together.

Because the process must be transparent, the entire website is available for you to download. You can go through the code, and if you can make any improvements to this process, you are most welcome to. It is a humble request to update me regarding the improvements so I can also update myself.




Due Credits:

This website was possible by help of many people and forums who helped me to learn Arabic, Philosophy, Law, Psychology, and PHP and other Web scripts. To be honest, I do not even know the names of many but I did learn from them. Some of these people were already dead by the time I read their input.

The entire code of this website is available for the same reason, that what they taught me, I can only pay it forward.


The Arabic text of the Quran was obtained from Tanzil. The additional translations were also obtained from Tanzil from this link.

The social-sharing images of verses were obtained from Legacy Quran.com, and were then resized for proper social-media display.
