And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language of his people to state clearly for them, and Allāh sends astray [thereby] whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

ஒவ்வொரு தூதரையும் அவருடைய சமூகத்தாருக்கு அவர் விளக்கிக் கூறுவதற்காக அவர்களுடைய மொழியிலேயே (போதிக்கும் படி) நாம் அனுப்பிவைத்தோம்; அல்லாஹ் தான் நாடியோரை வழிதவறச் செய்கின்றான், தான் நாடியோருக்கு நேர்வழியையும் காண்பிக்கின்றான்; அவன் மிகைத்தவனாகவும் ஞானமுடையவனாகவும் இருக்கின்றான்.

තවද කිසිදු රසූල්වරයකු ඔහුගේ ජනයාගේ බසින් මිස (වෙනත් බසකින්) අපි නො එව්වෙමු. එය ඔවුනට ඔහු (දේව පණිවිඩ) පැහැදිලි කරනු පිණිස ය. එවිට අල්ලාහ් තමන් අභිමත කරන අය නොමග යන්නට ඉඩ හරී. තවද තමන් අභිමත කරන අය යහ මග යොමු කරයි. තවද ඔහු සර්ව බලධාරී ය; මහා ප්‍රඥාවන්ත ය.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
ہم نے ہر ہر نبی کو اس کی قومی زبان میں ہی بھیجا ہے تاکہ ان کے سامنے وضاحت سے بیان کر دے ۔ اب اللہ جسے چاہے گمراه کر دے، اور جسے چاہے راه دکھا دے، وه غلبہ اور حکمت واﻻ ہے.

われはその民の言葉を使わないような使徒を遺わしたことはない。(それはその使命を)かれらに明瞭に説くためである。それでアッラーは,御好みの者を迷うに任せ,また御好みの者を導かれる。かれは,偉力ならびなく英明であられる。

我不派遣一个使者则已,但派遣的时候,总是以他的宗族的语言(降示经典),以便他为他们阐明正道。而真主使他所意欲者误入迷途,使他所意欲者遵循正路。他确是强大的,确是至睿的。

Tafsir of 14:4

Every Prophet was sent with the Language of His People; Guidance or Misguidance follows the Explanation Allah is Kind and Compassionate with His creation, sending Messengers to them from among them and speaking their language, so that they are able to understand the Message that the Messengers were sent with. Allah said next, فَيُضِلُّ اللَّهُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَيَهْدِى مَن يَشَآءُ (Then Allah misleads whom He wills and guides whom He wills.) after the proof and evidence have been established for the people, Allah misguides whom He wills from the path of guidance and guides whom He wills to the truth, وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ (And He is the All-Mighty,) whatever He wills occurs and whatever He does not will never occurs, الْحَكِيمُ (the All-Wise.) in His decisions, misleading those who deserve to be misled and guiding those who deserve guidance. This is from Allah's wisdom with His creation, every Prophet He sent to a people spoke their language and everyone of these Prophets were only sent to their people. Muhammad bin `Abdullah, Allah's Messenger ﷺ, was sent to all people.…
