Para 2 Urdu Translation

2.142

سَیَقُوْلُ السُّفَهَآءُ مِنَ النَّاسِ مَا وَلّٰىهُمْ عَنْ قِبْلَتِهِمُ الَّتِیْ كَانُوْا عَلَیْهَاؕ-قُلْ لِّلّٰهِ الْمَشْرِقُ وَ الْمَغْرِبُؕ-یَهْدِیْ مَنْ یَّشَآءُ اِلٰى صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ(142)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

Now the foolish among the people will say,[1] “Who has turned these Muslims from the Qiblah that they were facing previously?” Say, “To Allah ˹alone˺ belong the East and the West. He guides whomsoever He wills towards the straight path.”

2.143

وَ كَذٰلِكَ جَعَلْنٰكُمْ اُمَّةً وَّسَطًا لِّتَكُوْنُوْا شُهَدَآءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَ یَكُوْنَ الرَّسُوْلُ عَلَیْكُمْ شَهِیْدًاؕ-وَ مَا جَعَلْنَا الْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِیْ كُنْتَ عَلَیْهَاۤ اِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَنْ یَّتَّبِـعُ الرَّسُوْلَ مِمَّنْ یَّنْقَلِبُ عَلٰى عَقِبَیْهِؕ-وَ اِنْ كَانَتْ لَكَبِیْرَةً اِلَّا عَلَى الَّذِیْنَ هَدَى اللّٰهُؕ-وَ مَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِیُضِیْعَ اِیْمَانَكُمْؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوْفٌ رَّحِیْمٌ(143)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

And thus, We made you an exceptional nation so that you become witnesses over people, and this Messenger becomes your guardian and witness. ˹O Beloved Prophet,˺ the Qiblah which you were facing earlier was only appointed by Us so that We may distinguish between[1] those who follow the Messenger and those who retreat upon their heels. Indeed, this was burdensome except upon those whom Allah guided.[2] And it does not befit the Greatness of Allah that He should annul your faith; indeed, Allah is Most-Compassionate, Most-Merciful to people.

2.144

قَدْ نَرٰى تَقَلُّبَ وَجْهِكَ فِی السَّمَآءِۚ-فَلَنُوَلِّیَنَّكَ قِبْلَةً تَرْضٰىهَا۪-فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِؕ-وَ حَیْثُ مَا كُنْتُمْ فَوَلُّوْا وُجُوْهَكُمْ شَطْرَهٗؕ-وَ اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ لَیَعْلَمُوْنَ اَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّهِمْؕ-وَ مَا اللّٰهُ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا یَعْمَلُوْنَ(144)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

We see the frequent raising of your face towards the heavens; so most certainly We shall turn you towards the Qiblah that you are pleased with;[1] so now turn your face towards the Sacred House (Al-Masjid Al-Ḥarām). ˹O Muslims,˺ wherever you are, turn your faces in its direction. Verily, those who have been given the Book, they certainly know that this change is the truth from their Lord[2]—and Allah is not unaware of their deeds.

2.145

وَ لَىٕنْ اَتَیْتَ الَّذِیْنَ اُوْتُوا الْكِتٰبَ بِكُلِّ اٰیَةٍ مَّا تَبِعُوْا قِبْلَتَكَۚ-وَ مَاۤ اَنْتَ بِتَابِـعٍ قِبْلَتَهُمْۚ-وَ مَا بَعْضُهُمْ بِتَابِـعٍ قِبْلَةَ بَعْضٍؕ-وَ لَىٕنِ اتَّبَعْتَ اَهْوَآءَهُمْ مِّنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِۙ-اِنَّكَ اِذًا لَّمِنَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَﭥ(145)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

Even if you bring forth all the signs to the People of the Book, they still will not follow your Qiblah;[1] and follow not their Qiblah; and they do not even follow the Qiblah of one another. And ˹O Listener,[2]˺ if you follow their wishes, even after knowledge has come to you, then you shall indeed be among the transgressors.

2.146

اَلَّذِیْنَ اٰتَیْنٰهُمُ الْكِتٰبَ یَعْرِفُوْنَهٗ كَمَا یَعْرِفُوْنَ اَبْنَآءَهُمْؕ-وَ اِنَّ فَرِیْقًا مِّنْهُمْ لَیَكْتُمُوْنَ الْحَقَّ وَ هُمْ یَعْلَمُوْنَ ؔ (146)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

Those to whom We have granted the Book recognize that Prophet as they recognize their sons. Yet, a group of them verily conceals the truth knowingly.

2.147

اَلْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ فَلَا تَكُوْنَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِیْنَ۠ (147)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

˹O Listener,˺ the truth is only that which comes from your Lord, so never be among the doubters.[1]

2.148

وَ لِكُلٍّ وِّجْهَةٌ هُوَ مُوَلِّیْهَا فَاسْتَبِقُوا الْخَیْرٰتِﳳ-اَیْنَ مَا تَكُوْنُوْا یَاْتِ بِكُمُ اللّٰهُ جَمِیْعًاؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَیْءٍ قَدِیْرٌ(148)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

For every individual, there is a direction ˹of inclination˺ which he faces, so excel in acts of piety.[1] Allah will gather all of you wherever you may be. Indeed, Allah has power over everything.

2.149

وَ مِنْ حَیْثُ خَرَجْتَ فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِؕ-وَ اِنَّهٗ لَلْحَقُّ مِنْ رَّبِّكَؕ-وَ مَا اللّٰهُ بِغَافِلٍ عَمَّا تَعْمَلُوْنَ(149)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

˹Dear Beloved Prophet,˺ wherever you may come from, face the Sacred House; indeed, this is certainly the truth from your Lord—and Allah is not unaware of your deeds.

2.150

وَ مِنْ حَیْثُ خَرَجْتَ فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِؕ-وَ حَیْثُ مَا كُنْتُمْ فَوَلُّوْا وُجُوْهَكُمْ شَطْرَهٗۙ-لِئَلَّا یَكُوْنَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَیْكُمْ حُجَّةٌۗۙ-اِلَّا الَّذِیْنَ ظَلَمُوْا مِنْهُمْۗ-فَلَا تَخْشَوْهُمْ وَ اخْشَوْنِیْۗ-وَ لِاُتِمَّ نِعْمَتِیْ عَلَیْكُمْ وَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُوْنَۙۛ (150)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

˹Beloved Prophet,˺ from wherever you may come, face the Sacred House. ˹O Muslims,˺ wherever you are, turn your face towards it, so that people (the Jews) do not have evidence against you, except those who behave unjustly from among them; so fear them not and fear Me,[1] and so I may fulfil My favour upon you and that you may attain guidance.

2.151

كَمَاۤ اَرْسَلْنَا فِیْكُمْ رَسُوْلًا مِّنْكُمْ یَتْلُوْا عَلَیْكُمْ اٰیٰتِنَا وَ یُزَكِّیْكُمْ وَ یُعَلِّمُكُمُ الْكِتٰبَ وَ الْحِكْمَةَ وَ یُعَلِّمُكُمْ مَّا لَمْ تَكُوْنُوْا تَعْلَمُوْنَؕۛ (151)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

Just as We sent to you, from among you, a Messenger who recites Our verses to you, and purifies you, and teaches you the Book and profound knowledge, and teaches you that which you did not know.[1]
