مَثَلُ مَا يُنفِقُونَ فِى هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا كَمَثَلِ رِيحٍ فِيهَا صِرٌّ أَصَابَتْ حَرْثَ قَوْمٍ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ فَأَهْلَكَتْهُ ۚ وَمَا ظَلَمَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَلَـٰكِنْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ

EnglishSaheeh International
The example of what they spend in this worldly life is like that of a wind containing frost which strikes the harvest of a people who have wronged themselves [i.e., sinned] and destroys it. And Allāh has not wronged them, but they wrong themselves.

இவ்வுலக வாழ்வில் அவர்கள் செலவழிப்பது ஒரு காற்றுக்கு ஒப்பாகும்;. அது (மிகவும்) குளிர்ந்து (பனிப்புயலாக மாறி) தமக்குத் தாமே தீங்கிழைத்துக் கொண்ட அக்கூட்டத்தாரின் (வயல்களிலுள்ள) விளைச்சலில்பட்டு அதை அழித்துவிடுகிறது - அவர்களுக்கு அல்லாஹ் கொடுமை செய்யவில்லை. அவர்கள் தமக்குத் தாமே கொடுமையிழைத்துக் கொள்கிறார்கள்.

මෙලොව ජීවිතයෙහි ඔවුන් විදයම් කරන දෑට උපමාව නම් තමන්ට ම අපරාධ කර ගත් ජන පිරිසකගේ කෙතට පතිත වී එය විනාශ කර දැමූ අධිසීතල සහිත දැඩි සුළඟක් මෙනි. අල්ලාහ් ඔවුනට අපරාධ නො කළේ ය. එහෙත් ඔවුන් ඔවුනට ම අපරාධ කර ගන්නෝ ය.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
یہ کفار جو خرچ اخراجات کریں اس کی مثال یہ ہے کہ ایک تند ہوا چلی جس سے پاﻻ تھا جو ﻇالموں کی کھیتی پر پڑا اور اسے تہس نہس کر دیا ۔ اللہ تعالیٰ نے ان پر ﻇلم نہیں کیا بلکہ وه خود اپنی جانوں پر ﻇلم کرتے تھے.

かれらが,この世の生活で費すものを例えれば,(霜を運ぶ)寒風が邪悪の者たちの田畑を襲い,その作物を減ばすようなもの。アッラーはかれらを損われない。だがかれらは自ら自分を損っている。
ChineseMa Jian
他们在今世生活中所施舍的,譬如寒风吹向自欺的民众的禾稼上,就把它毁灭了。真主没有亏枉他们,但他们自欺。

Tafsir of 3:117

Virtues of the People of the Scriptures Who Embrace Islam Muhammad bin Ishaq and others, including Al-Awfi who reported it from Ibn Abbas, said;"These Ayat were revealed about the clergy of the People of the Scriptures who embraced the faith.
