وَأَصْبَحَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَمَنَّوْا۟ مَكَانَهُۥ بِٱلْأَمْسِ يَقُولُونَ وَيْكَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَبْسُطُ ٱلرِّزْقَ لِمَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ وَيَقْدِرُ ۖ لَوْلَآ أَن مَّنَّ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا لَخَسَفَ بِنَا ۖ وَيْكَأَنَّهُۥ لَا يُفْلِحُ ٱلْكَٰفِرُونَ [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated] [untranslated]
⦿
And morning found those who had coveted his place but yesterday crying: Ah, welladay! Allah enlargeth the provision for whom He will of His slaves and straiteneth it (for whom He will). If Allah had not been gracious unto us He would have caused it to swallow us (also). Ah, welladay! the disbelievers never prosper. - Pickthall, Marmaduke
⦿
By dawn those who longed to be in his place the day before were saying, [Don]t you see that Allah expands the provision for whomever He wishes of His servants, and tightens it? Had Allah not shown us favour, He might have made the earth swallow us too. Don]t you see that the faithless do not prosper?] - Qarai, Ali Quli
⦿
The people who the other day had wished to be like him, began saying, [Woe to us! God gives abundant wealth only to those of His servants whom He wants and He determines everyone's share. Had it not been for God's favor to us, He would have caused the earth to swallow us up. Woe to the unbelievers who will have no happiness.] - Sarwar, Muhammad
⦿
And those who yearned for his place only the day before began to say: Ah! (know) that Allah amplifies and straitens the means of subsistence for whom He pleases of His servants; had not Allah been gracious to us, He would most surely have abased us; ah! (know) that the ungrateful are never successful. - Shakir, Habib
⦿
Those who had coveted his position the day before now began to say, [Ah! It is indeed God alone who gives abundantly to whom He will and sparingly to whom He pleases. Had not God been gracious to us, He would have caused us to be swallowed up also.] Alas indeed! Those who deny the truth will never prosper. - Wahiduddin Khan
⦿
اور جن لوگوں نے کل اس کی جگہ کی تمناّ کی تھی وہ کہنے لگے کہ معاذ اللہ یہ تو خدا جس بندے کے لئے چاہتا ہے اس کے رزق میں وسعت پیدا کردیتا ہے اور جس کے یہاں چاہتا ہے تنگی پیدا کردیتا ہے اور اگر اس نے ہم پر احسان نہ کردیا ہوتا تو ہمیں بھی دھنسا دیا ہوتا معاذاللرُ کافروں کے لئے واقعا فلاح نہیں ہے - Jawadi, Zeeshan
⦿
اب وہی لوگ جو کل اس کی منزلت کی تمنا کر رہے تھے کہنے لگے ——افسوس، ہم بھول گئے تھے کہ اللہ اپنے بندوں میں سے جس کا رزق چاہتا ہے کشادہ کرتا ہے اور جسے چاہتا ہے نَپا تلا دیتا ہے اگر اللہ نے ہم پر احسان نہ کیا ہوتا تو ہمیں بھی زمین میں دَھنسا دیتا افسوس ہم کو یاد نہ رہا کہ کافر فلاح نہیں پایا کرتے—— - Maududi, Abul A'ala
⦿
اور کل جس نے اس کے مرتبہ کی آرزو کی تھی صبح کہنے لگے عجب بات ہے اللہ رزق وسیع کرتا ہے اپنے بندوں میں جس کے لیے چاہے اور تنگی فرماتا ہے اگر اللہ ہم پر احسان فرماتا تو ہمیں بھی دھنسادیتا، اے عجب، کافروں کا بھلا نہیں، - Ahmed Raza
⦿
اور وہ لوگ جو کل اس کے جاہ و مرتبہ کی تمنا کر رہے تھے اب کہنے لگے افسوس (اب پتہ چلا) کہ اللہ اپنے بندوں میں سے جس کا رزق چاہتا ہے کشادہ کر دیتا ہے اور جس کا چاہتا ہے تنگ کر دیتا ہے۔ اگر اللہ ہم پر (تنگدست بنا کر) احسان نہ کرتا تو ہمیں بھی زمین میں دھنسا دیتا اور کافر کبھی فلاح نہیں پاتے۔ - Najafi, Muhammad
