Translation

EN

"And remember how He made you inheritors after the 'Ad people and gave you habitations in the land: ye build for yourselves palaces and castles in (open) plains, and carve out homes in the mountains; so bring to remembrance the benefits (ye have received) from Allah, and refrain from evil and mischief on the earth."

A. Yusuf Alipublic-domain

Remember how He made you heirs after 'Ad and settled you in the land to build yourselves castles on its plains and carve houses out of the mountains: remember God’s blessings and do not spread corruption in the land,’

M.A.S. Abdel Haleemall-rights-reserved

And remember how He made you viceroys after A'ad and gave you station in the earth. Ye choose castles in the plains and hew the mountains into dwellings. So remember (all) the bounties of Allah and do not evil, making mischief in the earth.

M. Pickthallpublic-domain

And remember when He made you successors after the ʿAad and settled you in the land, [and] you take for yourselves palaces from its plains and carve from the mountains, homes. Then remember the favors of Allāh and do not commit abuse on the earth, spreading corruption."

Allah'ın sizi Ad milleti yerine getirdiğini, ovalarında köşkler kurup dağlarında kayadan evler yonttuğunuz yeryüzünde yerleştirdiğini hatırlayın; Allah'ın nimetlerini anın, yeryüzünde bozgunculuk yaparak karışıklık çıkarmayın" dedi.

Düşünün ki (Allah) Âd'dan sonra sizi hükümdarlar kıldı. Ve yer yüzünde sizi yerleştirdi: O'nun düzlüklerinde saraylar yapıyorsunuz, dağlarında evler yontuyorsunuz. Artık Allah'ın nimetlerini hatırlayın da yeryüzünde fesatçılar olarak karışıklık çıkarmayın.

Elmalılı Hamdi Yazırpublic-domain

(Allah’ın) Âd (kavmin)den sonra sizi halifeler (sorumlular) kıldığını ve yeryüzüne (bu topraklara) yerleştirdiğini hatırlayın! Ovalarında köşkler ediniyor ve dağlarından evler yontuyorsunuz. Allah’ın nimetlerini hatırlayın ve yeryüzünde bozguncular olarak karışıklık çıkarmayın!”

واذكروا نعمة الله عليكم، إذ جعلكم تَخْلُفون في الأرض مَن قبلكم، من بعد قبيلة عاد، ومكَّن لكم في الأرض الطيبة تنزلونها، فتبنون في سهولها البيوت العظيمة، وتنحتون من جبالها بيوتًا أخرى، فاذكروا نِعَمَ الله عليكم، ولا تَسْعَوا في الأرض بالإفساد.
