Wala yahsabanna allatheenakafaroo annama numlee lahum khayrun li-anfusihim innamanumlee lahum liyazdadoo ithman walahum AAathabunmuheenun ولا يحسبن الذين كفروا أنما نملي لهم خير لأنفسهم إنما نملي لهم ليزدادوا إثما ولهم عذاب مهين
وَلاَ يَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ أَنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ خَيْرٌ لِّأَنفُسِهِمْ إِنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ لِيَزْدَادُواْ إِثْمًا وَلَهْمُ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ

  اور کافر یہ گمان ہرگز نہ کریں کہ ہم جو انہیں مہلت دے رہے ہیں (یہ) ان کی جانوں کے لئے بہتر ہے، ہم تو (یہ) مہلت انہیں صرف اس لئے دے رہے ہیں کہ وہ گناہ میں اور بڑھ جائیں، اور ان کے لئے (بالآخر) ذلّت انگیز عذاب ہے

Yousuf AliLet not the Unbelievers think that our respite to them is good for themselves: We grant them respite that they may grow in their iniquity: But they will have a shameful punishment.

Ahmed Aliاور کافر یہ نہ سمجھیں کہ ہم جو انہیں مہلت دیتے ہیں یہ ان کے حق میں بھلائی ہے ہم انہیں مہلت اس لیے دیتے ہیں کہ وہ گناہ میں زیادتی کریں اور ان کے لیے خوار کرنے والا عذاب ہے
Ahmed Raza Khanاور ہرگز کافر اس گمان میں نہ رہیں کہ وہ جو ہم انہیں ڈھیل دیتے ہیں کچھ ان کے لئے بھلا ہے، ہم تو اسی لئے انہیں ڈھیل دیتے ہیں کہ اور گناہ میں بڑھیں اور ان کے لئے ذلت کا عذاب ہے،
Shabbir Ahmed اور ہرگز نہ گمان کریں وہ لوگ جنہوں نے کفر اختیار کیا ہے کہ یہ جو ہم مہلت دے رہے ہیں اُن کو، یہ بہتر ہے ان کے لیے۔ یہ ہمارا ان کو مہلت دینا، محض اس لیے ہے کہ خُوب اضافہ کرلیں وہ گناہوں میں اور ان کے لیے ہے عذاب ذلیل و خوار کرنے والا۔
Fateh Muhammad Jalandharyاور کافر لوگ یہ نہ خیال کریں کہ ہم جو ان کو مہلت دیئے جاتے ہیں تو یہ ان کے حق میں اچھا ہے۔ (نہیں بلکہ) ہم ان کو اس لئے مہلت دیتے ہیں کہ اور گناہ کرلیں۔ آخرکار ان کو ذلیل کرنے والا عذاب ہوگا
Mehmood Al Hassanاور یہ نہ سمجھیں کافر کہ ہم جو مہلت دیتے ہیں ان کو کچھ بھلا ہے ان کے حق میں ہم تو مہلت دیتے ہیں ان کو تاکہ ترقی کریں وہ گناہ میں اور ان کے لئے عذاب ہے خوار کرنے والا
Abul Ala Maududiیہ ڈھیل جو ہم انہیں دیے جاتے ہیں اس کو یہ کافر اپنے حق میں بہتری نہ سمجھیں، ہم تو انہیں اس لیے ڈھیل دے رہے ہیں کہ یہ خوب بار گناہ سمیٹ لیں، پھر اُن کے لیے سخت ذلیل کرنے والی سزا ہے
