இன்னும் (நம் தூதர்) வருவதற்கு முன், நாம் இவர்களை வேதனை செய்து அழித்திருந்தால், அவர்கள், "எங்கள் இறைவா! நீ எங்களுக்கு ஒரு தூதரை அனுப்பியிருக்க வேண்டாமா? அவ்வாறாயின் நாங்கள் சிறுமைப்படுவதற்கும், கேவலப்படுவதற்கும் முன் உன் வசனங்களைப் பின்பற்றியிருப்போமே" என்று கூறுவார்கள்.

තවද මීට පෙර යම් දඬුවමකින් සැබැවින් ම අපි ඔවුන් විනාශ කළෙමු නම්, අපගේ පරමාධිපතියාණනි! අප වෙත ධර්ම දූතයකු ඔබ එවිය යුතු නො වේ ද? එවිට අප අවමානයට හා අපකීර්තියට පත් වීමට පෙර නුඹගේ වදන් පිළිපදින්නට තිබුණි යැයි ඔවුහු පවසනු ඇත.

اور اگر ہم اس سے پہلے ہی انہیں عذاب سے ہلاک کر دیتے تو یقیناً یہ کہہ اٹھتے کہ اے ہمارے پروردگار تو نے ہمارے پاس اپنا رسول کیوں نہ بھیجا؟ کہ ہم تیری آیتوں کی تابعداری کرتے اس سے پہلے کہ ہم ذلیل ورسوا ہوتے.

われがもしこれ以前にかれらを処罰して,滅ぼしていたならば,かれらは必ず,「主よ,何故あなたは,わたしたちに使徒を遣わされなかったのですか。そうすればわたしたちは,卑しまれ屈辱を被る前に,あなたの印に従ったでしょうに。」と言ったであろう。

假若在派遣他之前,我以刑罚毁灭他们,他们必定要说:我们的主啊!你怎么不派遣一个使者来引导我们,以便我们在蒙受卑贱和耻辱之前, 遵守你的迹象呢?

Tafsir of 20:134

Mujahid said, أَزْوَجاً مِّنْهُمْ (various groups of them,) "This means the wealthy people." This means, "Verily, We have given you (O Muhammad) better than that which We have given them." This is just as Allah says in another Ayah, وَلَقَدْ ءاتَيْنَكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْءَانَ الْعَظِيمَ لاَ تَمُدَّنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ (And indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven repeatedly recited verses, and the Grand Qur'an.

It is an unlimited reward that cannot be described.…
