وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمْ ثُمَّ يَتَوَفَّىٰكُمْ ۚ وَمِنكُم مَّن يُرَدُّ إِلَىٰٓ أَرْذَلِ ٱلْعُمُرِ لِكَىْ لَا يَعْلَمَ بَعْدَ عِلْمٍ شَيْـًٔا ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ قَدِيرٌ

EnglishSaheeh International
And Allāh created you; then He will take you in death. And among you is he who is reversed to the most decrepit [old] age so that he will not know, after [having had] knowledge, a thing. Indeed, Allāh is Knowing and Competent.

இன்னும்; உங்களைப்படைத்தவன் அல்லாஹ் தான், பின்னர் அவனே உங்களை மரிக்கச் செயகிறான்; கல்வியறிவு பெற்றிருந்தும் (பின்) எதுவுமே அறியாதவர்களைப்போல் ஆகிவிடக் கூடிய மிகத் தளர்ந்த வயோதிகப் பருவம் வரையில் வாழ்ந்திருப்பவர்களும் உங்களில் உண்டு - நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் நன்கறிந்தவனாகவும், பேராற்றல் உடையவனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்.

තවද අල්ලාහ් නුඹලාව මැව්වේ ය. පසුව නුඹලාව ඔහු මරණයට පත් කරන්නේ ය. දැනුම ලැබුවායින් පසු කිසිවක් දැනගත නොහැකි පරිදි දුබල වියට යොමු කරනු ලබන්නන් ද නුඹලා අතර වෙති. නියත වශයෙන් ම අල්ලාහ් සර්ව ඥානී ය; මහා ශක්තිවන්ත ය.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
اللہ تعالیٰ نے ہی تم سب کو پیدا کیا ہے وہی پھر تمہیں فوت کرے گا، تم میں ایسے بھی ہیں جو بدترین عمر کی طرف لوٹائے جاتے ہیں کہ بہت کچھ جاننے بوجھنے کے بعد بھی نہ جانیں۔ بیشک اللہ دانا اور توانا ہے
JapaneseRyoichi Mita
アッラーはあなたがたを創り,それから(死に際し)あなたがたの魂を召される。またあなたがたのある者は,知っていたことをも凡て忘れ果てる程の,非常に弱まる年齢まで留めおかれる。本当にアッラーは全知にして強大であられる。
ChineseMa Jian
真主创造你们,然后使你们死亡。你们中有人复返于一生中最恶劣的阶段,以致他在有知识之后又变得一无所知。真主确是全知的,确是全能的。

Tafsir of 16:70

In Man there is a Lesson Allah tells us that He is controlling the affairs of His servants. He is the One Who created them out of nothing, then He will cause them to die. But there are some of them that He allows to grow old, which is a physical weakness, as Allah says: اللَّهُ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِن بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةٍ (Allah is He Who created you in (a state of) weakness, then gave you strength after weakness, then after strength gave (you) weakness) (30:54) لِكَىْ لاَ يَعْلَمَ بَعْدَ عِلْمٍ شَيْئًا (so that they know nothing after having known.) meaning, after he knew things, he will reach a stage where he knows nothing because of weakness of mind due to old age and senility.…
