Or do they envy people for what Allāh has given them of His bounty? But We had already given the family of Abraham the Scripture and wisdom and conferred upon them a great kingdom.

அல்லாஹ் தன் அருளினால் மனிதர்களுக்கு வழங்கியவற்றின்மீது இவர்கள் பொறாமை கொள்கின்றார்களா? இன்னும் நாம் நிச்சயமாக இப்றாஹீமின் சந்ததியினருக்கு வேதத்தையும், ஞானத்தையும் கொடுத்தோம்;. அத்துடன் மாபெரும் அரசாங்கத்தையும் அவர்களுக்குக் கொடுத்தோம்.

එසේ නොමැති නම් අල්ලාහ් මිනිසුනට තම භාග්‍යයෙන් පිරිනැමූ දෑ ගැන ඔවුහු ඔවුනට ඊර්ෂ්‍යා කරන්නෝ ද? සැබැවින් ම ඉබ්රාහීම්ගේ පවුලට ධර්ම ග්‍රන්ථය ද ප්‍රඥාව ද අපි පිරිනැමුවෙමු. තවද ඔවුනට අපි අතිමහත් රාජ්‍යය ද පිරිනැමුවෙමු.

یا یہ لوگوں سے حسد کرتے ہیں اس پر جو اللہ تعالیٰ نے اپنے فضل سے انہیں دیا ہے ، پس ہم نے تو آل ابراہیم کو کتاب اور حکمت بھی دی ہے اور بڑی سلطنت بھی عطا فرمائی ہے۔

それともかれらは,アッラーが恩恵を施されたために,その人びと(アラビア人)を妬むのか。まさにわれはイブラーヒームの子孫に啓典と英知とを授け,且つ偉大な王国を与えた。

难道他们嫉妒别人享受真主所赐的恩惠吗?我确已赏赐易卜拉欣的后裔天经和智慧,我又赏赐他们一个广大的国土。

Tafsir of 4:54
