RASOOL صلى الله عليه وسلم  KO QURAAN ATAA KARNAY KAY MAQAASID:

AYAT:01

[18:01] : Tamaam t’areefein ussi Allah kay liye sazawaar hain jiss nay apnay banday par yeh Qur’an utaara aur iss mein koyi kasar bakhi na chorhi.

[18:01] : اَلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِيْٓ اَنْزَلَ عَلٰي عَبْدِهِ الْكِتٰبَ وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْ لَّهٗ عِوَجًا

[18.01] : [All] praise is [due] to Allah , who has sent down upon His Servant the Book and has not made therein any deviance.

[18.01] : تمام تعریفیں اسی اللہ کے لئے سزاوار ہیں جس نے اپنے بندے پر یہ قرآن اتارا اور اس میں کوئی کسر باقی نہ چھوڑی ۔

*****************

AYAT:02

[18:02] : Balke har tarah say theek thaak rakha taake apnay pass ki sakht saza say hoshiyaar kar day aur emaan laanay aur nek amal karnay waalon ko khushkhabriyaan suna day ke unn kay liye behtareen badla hai.

[18:02] : قَـيِّمًا لِّيُنْذِرَ بَاْسًا شَدِيْدًا مِّنْ لَّدُنْهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ الْمُؤْمِنِيْنَ الَّذِيْنَ يَعْمَلُوْنَ الصّٰلِحٰتِ اَنَّ لَهُمْ اَجْرًا حَسَـنًا

[18:02] : [He has made it] straight, to warn of severe punishment from Him and to give good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a good reward

[18:02] : بلکہ ہر طرح سے ٹھیک ٹھاک رکھا تاکہ اپنے پاس کی سخت سزا سے ہوشیار کر دے اور ایمان لانے اور نیک عمل کرنے والوں کو خوشخبریاں سنادے کہ ان کے لئے بہترین بدلہ ہے ۔

*****************

AYAT:03

[18:03] : Jiss mein woh hamesha hamesha raheingay.

[18:03] : مَّاكِثِيْنَ فِيْهِ اَبَدًا

[18:03] : In which they will remain forever

[18:03] : جس میں وہ ہمیشہ ہمیشہ رہیں گے ۔

*****************

AYAT:04

[18:04] : Aur unn logon ko bhi dara day jo kehtay hain ke Allah Ta’aala Aulaad rakhta hai.

[18:04] : وَّيُنْذِرَ الَّذِيْنَ قَالُوا اتَّخَذَ اللّٰهُ وَلَدًا

[18:04] : And to warn those who say, ” Allah has taken a son.”

[18:04] : اور ان لوگوں کو بھی ڈرا دے جو کہتے ہیں کہ اللہ تعالٰی اولاد رکھتا ہے ۔

*****************

AYAT:05

[18:05] : Dar-haqeeqat na toh khud unhein iss ka ‘ilm hai na unn kay Baap Dadon ko. Yeh tohmat badi buri hai jo inn kay munh say nikal rahi hai woh nira jhoot bak rahay hain.

[18:05] : مَا لَهُمْ بِهٖ مِنْ عِلْمٍ وَّلَا لِاٰبَاۗىِٕهِمْ ۭ كَبُرَتْ كَلِمَةً تَخْرُجُ مِنْ اَفْوَاهِهِمْ ۭ اِنْ يَّقُوْلُوْنَ اِلَّا كَذِبًا

[18:05] : They have no knowledge of it, nor had their fathers. Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths; they speak not except a lie.

[18:05] : در حقیقت نہ تو خود انہیں اس کا علم ہے نہ ان کے باپ دادوں کو ۔ یہ تہمت بڑی بری ہے جو ان کے منہ سے نکل رہی ہے وہ نرا جھوٹ بک رہے ہیں ۔

*****************

AYAT:06

[18:06] : Pas agar yeh log iss baat par emaan na layen, toh kya Aap inn kay peechay issi ranj mein apni jaan halaak kar daaleingay?

[18:06] : فَلَعَلَّكَ بَاخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ عَلٰٓي اٰثَارِهِمْ اِنْ لَّمْ يُؤْمِنُوْا بِهٰذَا الْحَدِيْثِ اَسَفًا

[18:06] : Then perhaps you would kill yourself through grief over them, [O Muhammad], if they do not believe in this message, [and] out of sorrow.

[18:06] : پس اگر یہ لوگ اس بات پر ایمان نہ لائیں تو کیا آپ ان کے پیچھے اسی رنج میں اپنی جان ہلاک کر ڈالیں گے؟

ZAMEEN KI TAMAAM ZEENAT BANDON KA HUSN JAANCHNAY KAY LIYE HAI:

AYAT:07

[18:07] : Rooye zameen par jo kuch hai hum nay ussay zameen ki ronaq ka ba’ais banaya hai, ke hum inhein aazma lein ke inn mein say kaun nek A’amaal waala hai.

[18:07] : إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا مَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ زِينَةً لَّهَا لِنَبْلُوَهُمْ أَيُّهُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا

[18:07] : Indeed, We have made that which is on the earth adornment for it that We may test them [as to] which of them is best in deed.

[18:07] : روئے زمین پر جو کچھ ہے ہم نے اسے زمین کی رونق کا باعﺚ بنایا ہے کہ ہم انہیں آزمالیں کہ ان میں سے کون نیک اعمال واﻻ ہے

*****************

AYAT:08

[18:08] : Uss par jo kuch hai hum usay aek humwaar saaf maidaan kar daalnay waalay hain.

[18:08] : وَاِنَّا لَجٰعِلُوْنَ مَا عَلَيْهَا صَعِيْدًا جُرُزًا

[18:08] : And indeed, We will make that which is upon it [into] a barren ground.

[18:08] : اس پر جو کچھ ہے ہم اسے ایک ہموار صاف میدان کر ڈالنے والے ہیں ۔

*****************

“ASHAABAY KHAF” KAY WAQIYAA KA KHULAASAA:

AYAT:09

[18:09] : Kya tu apnay khayaal mein ghaar aur katbay walon ko humari nishaaniyon mein say koyi bohat ‘ajeeb nishaani samajh raha hai?

[18:09] : اَمۡ حَسِبۡتَ اَنَّ اَصۡحٰبَ الۡکَہۡفِ وَالرَّقِیۡمِ ۙ کَانُوۡا مِنۡ اٰیٰتِنَا عَجَبًا

[18:09] : Or have you thought that the companions of the cave and the inscription were, among Our signs, a wonder?

[18:09] : کیا تو اپنے خیال میں غار اور کتبے والوں کو ہماری نشانیوں میں سے کوئی بہت عجیب نشانی سمجھ رہا ہے؟

*****************

AYAT:10

[18:10] : Unn chand naujawanon nay jab ghaar mein panah li toh Dua ki ke “Aye humaaray parwardigaar! Humein apnay paas say rahmat ‘ataa farma aur humaray kaam mein humaray liye raahyabi ko aasan karday”.

[18:10] : اِذۡ اَوَی الۡفِتۡیَۃُ اِلَی الۡکَہۡفِ فَقَالُوۡا رَبَّنَاۤ اٰتِنَا مِنۡ لَّدُنۡکَ رَحۡمَۃً وَّہَیِّیٴۡ لَنَا مِنۡ اَمۡرِنَا رَشَدًا

[18:10] : [Mention] when the youths retreated to the cave and said, “Our Lord, grant us from Yourself mercy and prepare for us from our affair right guidance.”

[18:10] : ان چند نوجوانوں نے جب غار میں پناه لی تو دعا کی کہ اے ہمارے پروردگار! ہمیں اپنے پاس سے رحمت عطا فرما اور ہمارے کام میں ہمارے لئے راه یابی کو آسان کردے

*****************

[18:11] : Pas hum nay unn kay kanon par ginti kay kaee saal tak ussi ghaar mein parday daal diye.

[18:11] : فَضَرَبۡنَا عَلٰۤی اٰذَانِہِمۡ فِی الۡکَہۡفِ سِنِیۡنَ عَدَدًاۙ

[18:11] : So We cast [a cover of sleep] over their ears within the cave for a number of years.

[18:11] : پس ہم نے ان کے کانوں پر گنتی کے کئی سال تک اسی غار میں پردے ڈال دیئے

*****************

[18:12] : Phir hum nay unhein utha khada kiya ke hum yeh m’aloom karlein ke donon giroh mein say iss intehaee muddat ko jo unhon nay guzaari kiss nay zyada yaad rakhi hai.

[18:12] : ثُمَّ بَعَثۡنٰہُمۡ لِنَعۡلَمَ اَیُّ الۡحِزۡبَیۡنِ اَحۡصٰی لِمَا لَبِثُوۡۤا اَمَدًا ٪

[18:12] : Then We awakened them that We might show which of the two factions was most precise in calculating what [extent] they had remained in time.

[18:12] : پھر ہم نے انہیں اٹھا کھڑا کیا کہ ہم یہ معلوم کرلیں کہ دونوں گروه میں سے اس انتہائی مدت کو جو انہوں نے گزاری کس نے زیاده یاد رکھی ہے

*****************

GAAR WAALON KA TAFSILEIN WAAQIYAA:

[18:13] : Hum inn ka sahih waqiy’a teray saamnay bayaan farma rahay hain. Yeh chand nojawan apnay Rab par emaan laaey thay aur hum nay unn ki hidaayat mein taraqqi di thi.

[18:13] : نَحۡنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَیۡکَ نَبَاَہُمۡ بِالۡحَقِّ ؕ  اِنَّہُمۡ فِتۡیَۃٌ اٰمَنُوۡا بِرَبِّہِمۡ وَزِدۡنٰہُمۡ ہُدًی ٭ۖ

[18:13] : It is We who relate to you, [O Muhammad], their story in truth. Indeed, they were youths who believed in their Lord, and We increased them in guidance.

[18:13] : ہم ان کا صحیح واقعہ تیرے سامنے بیان فرما رہے ہیں۔ یہ چند نوجوان اپنے رب پر ایمان ﻻئے تھے اور ہم نے ان کی ہدایت میں ترقی دی تھی

*****************

[18:14] : Hum nay unn kay dil mazboot kardiye thay jab ke yeh uth khaday huway aur kehnay lagay ke “humara parwardigaar toh wohi hai jo Aasman-o-zameen ka parwardigaar hai, namumkin hai ke hum iss kay siwa kissi aur Ma’bood ko pukarein agar aisa kiya toh hum nay nihayat hi ghalat baat kahi.”

[18:14] : وَّرَبَطۡنَا عَلٰی قُلُوۡبِہِمۡ اِذۡ قَامُوۡا فَقَالُوۡا رَبُّنَا رَبُّ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَالۡاَرۡضِ لَنۡ نَّدۡعُوَا۠ مِنۡ دُوۡنِہٖۤ اِلٰـہًا لَّقَدۡ قُلۡنَاۤ اِذًا شَطَطًا

[18:14] : And We made firm their hearts when they stood up and said, “Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth. Never will we invoke besides Him any deity. We would have certainly spoken, then, an excessive transgression.

[18:14] : ہم نے ان کے دل مضبوط کردیئے تھے جب کہ یہ اٹھ کھڑے ہوئے اور کہنے لگے کہ ہمارا پروردگار تو وہی ہے جو آسمان وزمین کا پروردگار ہے، ناممکن ہے کہ ہم اس کے سوا کسی اور معبود کو پکاریں اگر ایسا کیا تو ہم نے نہایت ہی غلط بات کہی

*****************

[18:15] : Yeh hai humari qaum jiss nay uss kay siwa aur Ma’bood bana rakhein hain. Unn ki khudaee ki yeh koyi saaf daleel kyun pesh nahi kartay Allah par jhoot iftara bandhnay waalay say zyada zaalim kaun hai?

[18:15] : هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ قَوْمُنَا ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ ءَالِهَةًۖ لَّوْلَا يَأْتُونَ عَلَيْهِم بِسُلْطَٰنٍۭ بَيِّنٍۖ فَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ ٱفْتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبًا

[18:15] : These, our people, have taken besides Him deities. Why do they not bring for [worship of] them a clear authority? And who is more unjust than one who invents about Allah a lie?”

[18:15] : یہ ہے ہماری قوم جس نے اس کے سوا اور معبود بنا رکھے ہیں۔ ان کی خدائی کی یہ کوئی صاف دلیل کیوں پیش نہیں کرتے اللہ پر جھوٹ افترا باندھنے والے سے زیاده ﻇالم کون ہے؟

*****************

[18:16] : Jab ke tum inn say aur Allah kay siwa inn kay aur M’aboodon say kinarah kash hogaye toh ab tum kissi ghaar mein jaa baitho, tumhara Rab tum par apni rehmat phaila day ga aur tumharay liye tumharay kaam mein sahoolat mohiyya kar day ga.

[18:16] : وَإِذِ ٱعْتَزَلْتُمُوهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ إِلَّا ٱللَّهَ فَأْوُۥٓا۟ إِلَى ٱلْكَهْفِ يَنشُرْ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِهِۦ وَيُهَيِّئْ لَكُم مِّنْ أَمْرِكُم مِّرْفَقًا

[18:16] : [The youths said to one another], “And when you have withdrawn from them and that which they worship other than Allah, retreat to the cave. Your Lord will spread out for you of His mercy and will prepare for you from your affair facility.”

[18:16] : جب کہ تم ان سے اور اللہ کے سوا ان کے اور معبودوں سے کناره کش ہوگئے تو اب تم کسی غار میں جا بیٹھو، تمہارا رب تم پر اپنی رحمت پھیلا دے گا اور تمہارے لئے تمہارے کام میں سہولت مہیا کردے گا

*****************

[18:17] : Aap dekhein gay ke Aaftab ba-waqt tuloo inn kay ghaar say Daayein jaanib ko jhuk jataa hai aur ba-waqt ghuroob inn kay baayein jaanib kathra jataa hai aur woh iss ghaar ki kushadah jagah mein hain. Yeh Allah ki nishaniyon mein say hai. Allah Ta’aala jiss ki rahbari farmaye woh Raah-e-raast par hai aur jisay woh gumraah karday namumkin hai ke Aap uss ka koyi kaarsaaz aur rehnuma paa sakein.

[18:17] : وَتَرَى ٱلشَّمْسَ إِذَا طَلَعَت تَّزَٰوَرُ عَن كَهْفِهِمْ ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِذَا غَرَبَت تَّقْرِضُهُمْ ذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَهُمْ فِى فَجْوَةٍ مِّنْهُۚ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِۗ مَن يَهْدِ ٱللَّهُ فَهُوَ ٱلْمُهْتَدِۖ وَمَن يُضْلِلْ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُۥ وَلِيًّا مُّرْشِدًا

[18:17] : And [had you been present], you would see the sun when it rose, inclining away from their cave on the right, and when it set, passing away from them on the left, while they were [lying] within an open space thereof. That was from the signs of Allah. He whom Allah guides is the [rightly] guided, but he whom He sends astray – never will you find for him a protecting guide.

[18:17] : آپ دیکھیں گے کہ آفتاب بوقت طلوع ان کے غار سے دائیں جانب کو جھک جاتا ہے اور بوقت غروب ان کے بائیں جانب کترا جاتا ہے اور وه اس غار کی کشاده جگہ میں ہیں۔ یہ اللہ کی نشانیوں میں سے ہے۔ اللہ تعالیٰ جس کی رہبری فرمائے وه راه راست پر ہے اور جسے وه گمراه کردے ناممکن ہے کہ آپ اس کا کوئی کارساز اور رہنما پاسکیں

*****************

[18:18] : Aap khayal kartay ke woh baydaar hain, halaanke woh soaye huway thay, khud hum hi unhein daayein baayein karwatein dilaya kartay thay, unn ka kutta bhi chaukhat par apnay haath phailaye huway tha. Agar Aap jhaank kar unhein dekhna chahatay toh zaroor ulthay Paaon bhaag khaday hotay aur unn kay Roob say Aap par dehshat cha jaati.

[18:18] : وَتَحۡسَبُہُمۡ اَیۡقَاظًا وَّہُمۡ رُقُوۡدٌ ٭ۖ وَّنُقَلِّبُہُمۡ ذَاتَ الۡیَمِیۡنِ وَذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ ٭ۖ وَکَلۡبُہُمۡ بَاسِطٌ ذِرَاعَیۡہِ بِالۡوَصِیۡدِ ؕ لَوِ اطَّلَعۡتَ عَلَیۡہِمۡ لَوَلَّیۡتَ مِنۡہُمۡ فِرَارًا وَّلَمُلِئۡتَ مِنۡہُمۡ رُعۡبًا

[18:18] : And you would think them awake, while they were asleep. And We turned them to the right and to the left, while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance. If you had looked at them, you would have turned from them in flight and been filled by them with terror.

[18:18] : آپ خیال کرتے کہ وه بیدار ہیں، حاﻻنکہ وه سوئے ہوئے تھے، خود ہم ہی انہیں دائیں بائیں کروٹیں دﻻیا کرتے تھے، ان کا کتا بھی چوکھٹ پر اپنے ہاتھ پھیلائے ہوئے تھا۔ اگر آپ جھانک کر انہیں دیکھنا چاہتے تو ضرور الٹے پاؤں بھاگ کھڑے ہوتے اور ان کے رعب سے آپ پر دہشت چھا جاتی

*****************

[18:19] :  Issi tarah hum nay unhein jaga kar, utha diya ke aapas mein pooch guch karlein. Aik kehnay waalay nay kaha ke, “kyun bhai tum kitni dair thehray rahay?” Unho nay jawaab diya ke, “aik din, ya aik din say bhi kum”. Kehnay lagay ke, tumharay thehray rahnay ka ba-khoobi ilm Allah Ta’alaa hi ko hai. Ab toh tum apnay mein say kisi ko apni yeh chandi day kar shehar bhejo, woh khoob dekh bhaal lay ke, shehar ka kaun sa khaana pakeezahtar hai, phir issi mein say tumharay khanay kay liye lay aaye, aur woh bohat ehtiyat aur narmi bartay aur kissi ko tumhari khabar na honay day”.

[18:19] : وَکَذٰلِکَ بَعَثۡنٰہُمۡ لِیَتَسَآءَلُوۡا بَیۡنَہُمۡ ؕ قَالَ قَآئِلٌ مِّنۡہُمۡ کَمۡ لَبِثۡتُمۡ ؕ قَالُوۡا لَبِثۡنَا یَوۡمًا اَوۡ بَعۡضَ یَوۡمٍ ؕ قَالُوۡا رَبُّکُمۡ اَعۡلَمُ بِمَا لَبِثۡتُمۡ ؕ فَابۡعَثُوۡۤا اَحَدَکُمۡ بِوَرِقِکُمۡ ہٰذِہٖۤ اِلَی الۡمَدِیۡنَۃِ فَلۡیَنۡظُرۡ اَیُّہَاۤ اَزۡکٰی طَعَامًا فَلۡیَاۡتِکُمۡ بِرِزۡقٍ مِّنۡہُ وَلۡـیَؔ‍‍‍تَلَطَّفۡ وَلَا یُشۡعِرَنَّ بِکُمۡ اَحَدًا

[18:19] : And similarly, We awakened them that they might question one another. Said a speaker from among them, “How long have you remained [here]?” They said, “We have remained a day or part of a day.” They said, “Your Lord is most knowing of how long you remained. So send one of you with this silver coin of yours to the city and let him look to which is the best of food and bring you provision from it and let him be cautious. And let no one be aware of you.

[18:19] : اسی طرح ہم نے انہیں جگا کر اٹھا دیا کہ آپس میں پوچھ گچھ کرلیں۔ ایک کہنے والے نے کہا کہ کیوں بھئی تم کتنی دیر ٹھہرے رہے؟ انہوں نے جواب دیا کہ ایک دن یا ایک دن سے بھی کم۔ کہنے لگے کہ تمہارے ٹھہرے رہنے کا بخوبی علم اللہ تعالیٰ ہی کو ہے۔ اب تو تم اپنے میں سے کسی کو اپنی یہ چاندی دے کر شہر بھیجو وه خوب دیکھ بھال لے کہ شہر کا کون سا کھانا پاکیزه تر ہے، پھر اسی میں سے تمہارے کھانے کے لئے لے آئے، اور وه بہت احتیاط اور نرمی برتے اور کسی کو تمہاری خبر نہ ہونے دے

*****************

[18:20] : Agar yeh kaafir tum par ghalba paa lein toh tumhein sangsaar kardeingay ya tumhein phir apnay deen mein lauta leingay aur phir tum kabhi bhi kamyaab na hosakogay.

[18:20] : إِنَّهُمْ إِن يَظْهَرُوا۟ عَلَيْكُمْ يَرْجُمُوكُمْ أَوْ يُعِيدُوكُمْ فِى مِلَّتِهِمْ وَلَن تُفْلِحُوٓا۟ إِذًا أَبَدًا

[18:20] : Indeed, if they come to know of you, they will stone you or return you to their religion. And never would you succeed, then – ever.”

[18:20] : اگر یہ کافر تم پر غلبہ پالیں تو تمہیں سنگسار کر دیں گے یا تمہیں پھر اپنے دین میں لوٹا لیں گے اور پھر تم کبھی بھی کامیاب نہ ہو سکو گے

*****************

[18:21] : Hum nay iss tarah logon ko inn kay haal say aagah kar diya ke woh jaan lein ke Allah ka wa’ada bilkul sacha hai aur qayamat mein koi shakh -o- shuba nahi. Jabke woh apnay amar mein aapas mein ikhtilaaf kar rahay thay kehnay lagay ke, “inn kay ghaar par aik emaarat bana lo. Inn ka Rab hi unn kay haal ka zyada aalim hai. Jin logon nay inn kay baaray mein ghalba paya woh kehnay lagay ke, hum toh inn kay aas paas masjid banalein gay”.

[18:21] : وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَعْثَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ لِيَعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَأَنَّ ٱلسَّاعَةَ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهَآ إِذْ يَتَنَٰزَعُونَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَمْرَهُمْۖ فَقَالُوا۟ ٱبْنُوا۟ عَلَيْهِم بُنْيَٰنًاۖ رَّبُّهُمْ أَعْلَمُ بِهِمْۚ قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ غَلَبُوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَمْرِهِمْ لَنَتَّخِذَنَّ عَلَيْهِم مَّسْجِدًا

[18:21] : And similarly, We caused them to be found that they [who found them] would know that the promise of Allah is truth and that of the Hour there is no doubt. [That was] when they disputed among themselves about their affair and [then] said, “Construct over them a structure. Their Lord is most knowing about them.” Said those who prevailed in the matter, “We will surely take [for ourselves] over them a masjid.”

[18:21] : ہم نے اس طرح لوگوں کو ان کے حال سے آگاه کر دیا کہ وه جان لیں کہ اللہ کا وعده بالکل سچا ہے اور قیامت میں کوئی شک وشبہ نہیں۔ جب کہ وه اپنے امر میں آپس میں اختلاف کر رہے تھے کہنے لگے کہ ان کے غار پر ایک عمارت بنا لو۔ ان کا رب ہی ان کے حال کا زیاده عالم ہے۔ جن لوگوں نے ان کے بارے میں غلبہ پایا وه کہنے لگے کہ ہم تو ان کے آس پاس مسجد بنالیں گے
