وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلِهِ ٱلرُّسُلُ ۚ أَفَإِي۟ن مَّاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ ٱنقَلَبْتُمْ عَلَىٰٓ أَعْقَـٰبِكُمْ ۚ وَمَن يَنقَلِبْ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ فَلَن يَضُرَّ ٱللَّهَ شَيْـًٔا ۗ وَسَيَجْزِى ٱللَّهُ ٱلشَّـٰكِرِينَ

EnglishSaheeh International
Muḥammad is not but a messenger. [Other] messengers have passed on before him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to unbelief]? And he who turns back on his heels will never harm Allāh at all; but Allāh will reward the grateful.

முஹம்மது(ஸல்) (இறைவனின்) தூதரே அன்றி(வேறு) அல்லர்;. அவருக்கு முன்னரும் (அல்லாஹ்வின்) தூதர்கள் பலர் (காலம்) சென்றுவிட்டார்கள்;. அவர் இறந்து விட்டால் அல்லது கொல்லப்பட்டால்; நீங்கள் உங்கள் குதிகால்களின் மேல் (புறங்காட்டித்) திரும்பி விடுவீர்களா? அப்படி எவரேனும் தம் குதிகால்கள்மேல் (புறங்காட்டி) திரும்பி விடுவாரானால் அவர் அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு எவ்விதத் தீங்கும் செய்துவிட முடியாது. அன்றியும், அல்லாஹ் நன்றியுடையோருக்கு அதிசீக்கிரத்தில் நற்கூலியை வழங்குவான்.

තවද මුහම්මද් ධර්ම දූතයෙකු මිස වෙනත් කෙනෙකු නො වේ. ඔහුට පෙර ධර්ම දූතයින් ඉකුත් වී ගියහ. (ඔවුන් අතුරින්) කෙනෙක් මිය ගියේ නම් හෝ ඝාතනය කරනු ලැබුවේ නම් හෝ (පසුව) නුඹලා නුඹලාගේ විලුඹු මත (දහමින්) ආපසු හැරී යන්නෙහු ද? තවද කවරෙකු තම විලුඹු දෙක මත (දහමින්) ආපසු හැරී යන්නේ ද එවිට එය අල්ලාහ්ට කිසිවකින් හානියක් සිදු නො කරන්නේ ම ය. අල්ලාහ් කෘතවේදීන්ට ප්‍රතිඵල පිරිනමනු ඇත.

(حضرت) محمد ﴿صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم﴾ صرف رسول ہی ہیں ، ان سے پہلے بہت سے رسول ہو چکے ہیں، کیا اگر ان کا انتقال ہو جائے یا یہ شہید ہو جائیں، تو تم اسلام سے اپنی ایڑیوں کے بل پھر جاؤ گے؟ اور جو کوئی پھر جائے اپنی ایڑیوں پر تو ہرگز اللہ تعالیٰ کا کچھ نہ بگاڑے گا، عنقریب اللہ تعالیٰ شکر گزاروں کو نیک بدلہ دے گا.

ムハンマドは,一人の使徒に過ぎない。使徒たちはかれの前に逝った。もしかれが死ぬか, または殺されたら,あなたがたは踵を返すのか。誰が踵を返そうとも,少しもアッラーを損うことは出来ない。だがアッラーは,感謝(してかれに仕える)者に報われる。
ChineseMa Jian
穆罕默德只是一个使者,在他之前,有许多使者,确已逝去了;如果他病故或阵亡,难道你们就要叛道吗?叛道的人,绝不能伤损真主一丝毫。真主将报酬感谢的人。

Tafsir of 3:144

The Rumor that the Prophet was Killed at Uhud When Muslims suffered defeat in battle at Uhud and some of them were killed, Shaytan shouted, "Muhammad ﷺ has been killed."

Some Muslims believed this rumor and thought that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been killed, claiming that this could happen, for Allah narrated that this occurred to many Prophets before. Therefore, the Muslims' resolve was weakened and they did not actively participate in battle. This is why Allah sent down to His Messenger His statement, وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلاَّ رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِن قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ (Muhammad is no more than a Messenger, and indeed Messengers have passed away before him.) he is to deliver Allah's Message and may be killed in the process, just as what happened to many Prophets before. Ibn Abi Najih said that his father said that a man from the Muhajirin passed by an Ansari man who was bleeding (during Uhud) and said to him, "O fellow! Did you know that Muhammad ﷺ was killed" The Ansari man said, "Even if Muhammad ﷺ was killed, he has indeed conveyed the Message.…
