Or [it is] like a rainstorm from the sky within which is darkness, thunder and lightning. They put their fingers in their ears against the thunderclaps in dread of death. But Allāh is encompassing of the disbelievers.

அல்லது, (இன்னும் ஓர் உதாரணம்;) காரிருளும், இடியும், மின்னலும் கொண்டு வானத்திலிருந்து கடுமழை கொட்டும் மேகம்; (இதிலகப்பட்டுக்கொண்டோர்) மரணத்திற்கு அஞ்சி இடியோசையினால், தங்கள் விரல்களைத் தம் காதுகளில் வைத்துக் கொள்கிறார்கள்; ஆனால் அல்லாஹ் (எப்போதும் இந்த) காஃபிர்களைச் சூழ்ந்தனாகவே இருக்கின்றான்.

නැතහොත් අහසින් (වැටෙන) වර්ෂාවක් මෙනි. එහි අන්ධ කාරයන් ද අකුණු ද අකුණු එළිය ද ඇත. ගිගුරුම් හඬ හේතුවෙන් මර බියෙන් ඔවුන්ගේ ඇඟිලි ඔවුන්ගේ කන් තුළ ඔබා ගනිති. තවද දේව ප්‍රතික්ෂේපකයින් පිළිබඳව අල්ලාහ් සර්ව ප්‍රකාරයෙන් දන්නා ය.

یا آسمانی برسات کی طرح جس میں اندھیریاں اور گرج اور بجلی ہو، موت سے ڈر کر کڑاکے کی وجہ سے اپنی انگلیاں اپنے کانوں میں ڈال لیتے ہیں۔ اور اللہ تعالیٰ کافروں کو گھیرنے واﻻ ہے۔

また(譬えば)暗闇の中で雷鳴と稲妻を伴なう豪雨が天から降ってきたようなもので,落雷の恐さから死を恐れて,(戯らに)耳に指を差し込む。だがアッラーは,不信心者たちを全部取り囲まれる。

或者如遭遇倾盆大雨者,雨里有重重黑暗,又有雷和电,他们恐怕震死,故用手指塞住耳朵,以避疾雷。真主是周知不信道的人们的。

Tafsir of 2:19

Another Parable of the Hypocrites This is another parable which Allah gave about the hypocrites who sometimes know the truth and doubt it at other times. When they suffer from doubt, confusion and disbelief, their hearts are, كَصَيِّبٍ (Like a Sayyib), meaning, "The rain", as Ibn Mas`ud, Ibn `Abbas, and several other Companions have confirmed as well as Abu Al-`Aliyah, Mujahid, Sa`id bin Jubayr, `Ata', Al-Hasan Al-Basri, Qatadah, `Atiyah Al-`Awfi, `Ata' Al-Khurasani, As-Suddi and Ar-Rabi` bin Anas.
