| Asad | But those who had been weak will say unto those who had gloried in their arrogance: "Nay, [what kept us away was your] devising of false arguments, night and day, [against God's messages- as you did] [I.e., always, the term makr (lit., "a scheme" or "scheming") has here the connotation of "devising false arguments" against something that is true: in this case, as is shown in the first paragraph of verse 31 above, against God's messages (cf. a similar use of this term in 10:21 and 35:43; see also 86:15).] when you persuaded us to blaspheme against God and to claim that there are powers that could rival Him!" [Lit., "[that we should] give God compeers (andad)". For an explanation of this phrase and my rendering of it, see 2:22.] And when they see the suffering [that awaits them], they will [all] be unable to express [the full depth of] their remorse: [For a justification of this rendering of the phrase asarru `n-nadamah, see 10:54.] for We shall have put shackles around the necks of those who had been bent on denying the truth: [As pointed out by several of the classical commentators (e.g., Zamakhshari, Razi and Baydawi) in their explanations of similar phrases occurring in 13:5 and 36:8, the "shackles" (aghlal) which these sinners carry, as it were, "around their necks" in life, and will carry on Judgment Day, are a metaphor of the enslavement of their souls to the false values to which they had surrendered, and of the suffering which will be caused by that surrender.] [and] will this be aught but a [just] requital for what they were doing? PURSUIT OF MATERIAL PROSPERITY AT THE EXPENSE OF MORALITY | ||||||

| Hilali/Khan** | Those who were deemed weak will say to those who were arrogant: "Nay, but it was your plotting by night and day, when you ordered us to disbelieve in Allah and set up rivals to Him!" And each of them (parties) will conceal their own regrets (for disobeying Allah during this worldly life), when they behold the torment. And We shall put iron collars round the necks of those who disbelieved. Are they requited aught except what they used to do? | ||||||
| QXP Shabbir Ahemd** | The commoners will say to their leaders, "Nay, you were the ones who schemed night and day to set up systems that we were forced to follow, instead of Allah. It is you who set up (yourselves as) rivals against Him." Both parties will then be ashamed when they see the Requital. We will put shackles around the necks of all those who rejected the Truth. Is their retribution anything but what they earned with their own actions? | ||||||
