Allah, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsisting, Who sustains the entire order of the universe - there is no God but He.

He has revealed this Book to you, setting forth the truth and confirming the earlier Books, and earlier He revealed the Torah and Gospel

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

Usne tumpar yeh kitab nazil ki hai, jo haqq lekar aayi hai aur un kitabon ki tasdeeq kar rahi hai jo pehle se aayi hui thi, issey pehle woh insaano ki hidayat ke liye taurat aur injil nazil kar chukka hai

for the guidance of mankind; and He has also revealed the Criterion (to distinguish truth from falsehood). A severe chastisement lies in store for those who deny the signs of Allah. Allah is All-Mighty; He is the Lord of Retribution.

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

Aur usne woh kasauti (criteria) utari hai (jo haqq aur baatil ka farq dikhane wali hai). Ab jo log Allah ke farameen ko qabool karne se inkar karein, unko yaqeenan sakht saza milegi. Allah be-panaah taaqat ka maalik hai aur burayi ka badla dene wala hai

هُوَ الَّذِىۡۤ اَنۡزَلَ عَلَيۡكَ الۡكِتٰبَ مِنۡهُ اٰيٰتٌ مُّحۡكَمٰتٌ هُنَّ اُمُّ الۡكِتٰبِ وَاُخَرُ مُتَشٰبِهٰتٌ​ؕ فَاَمَّا الَّذِيۡنَ فِىۡ قُلُوۡبِهِمۡ زَيۡغٌ فَيَتَّبِعُوۡنَ مَا تَشَابَهَ مِنۡهُ ابۡتِغَآءَ الۡفِتۡنَةِ وَابۡتِغَآءَ تَاۡوِيۡلِهٖۚ وَمَا يَعۡلَمُ تَاۡوِيۡلَهٗۤ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ ​ۘ وَ الرّٰسِخُوۡنَ فِى الۡعِلۡمِ يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ اٰمَنَّا بِهٖۙ كُلٌّ مِّنۡ عِنۡدِ رَبِّنَا ​ۚ وَمَا يَذَّكَّرُ اِلَّاۤ اُولُوا الۡاَلۡبَابِ‏  ٧

It is He Who has revealed the Book to you. Some of its verses are absolutely clear and lucid, and these are the core of the Book. Others are ambiguous. Those in whose hearts there is perversity, always go about the part which is ambiguous, seeking mischief and seeking to arrive at its meaning arbitrarily, although none knows their true meaning except Allah. On the contrary, those firmly rooted in knowledge say: 'We believe in it; it is all from our Lord alone.' No one derives true admonition from anything except the men of understanding.

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

Wahi khuda hai, jisne yeh kitab tumpar nazil ki hai. Is kitab mein do tarah ki ayaat hain : ek mohkamaat, jo kitab ki asal buniyaad hain aur dusri mutashaabihaat (ambiguous). Jin logon ke dilon mein tedh hai, woh fitne ki talash mein hamesha mutashabihaat hi ke pichey padey rehte hain aur unko maani pehnane ki koshish kiya karte hain, halaanke unka haqiqi mafhoom Allah ke siwa koi nahin jaanta. Bakhilaf iske jo log ilm mein pukhta-kaar hain, woh kehte hain ke “ hamara unpar iman hai, yeh sab hamare Rubb hi ki taraf se hain” aur sach yeh hai ke kisi cheez se saheeh sabaq sirf daanishmand log hi hasil karte hain

They pray to Allah: 'Our Lord! Do not let our hearts swerve towards crookedness after You have guided us to the right way, and. bestow upon us Your mercy. Surely You, only You, are the Munificent Giver!

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

Woh Allah se dua karte rehte hain ke “ parwardigaar! Jab tu humein seedhe raste par laga chukka hai, to phir kahin hamare dilon ko kaji (crookedness) mein mubtila na kardijiyo. Humein apne khazane faiz se rehmat ata kar ke tu hi fayyaz e haqiqi (ata farmane wala) hai

You have already come across an instructive sign in the two hosts that encountered each other in battle (at Badr): one host fighting in the way of Allah, and the other that of unbelievers. They saw with their own eyes that one host was twice the number of the other. But (the result of the battle has proved that) Allah succours with His victory whomsoever He wills. In this there is surely a lesson for all who have eyes to see.

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

Tumhare liye un do giroohon mein ek nishan e ibrat tha, jo (badr mein) ek dusre se nabard aazma (encountered) huey, ek giroh Allah ki raah mein ladd raha tha aur dusra giroh kafir tha, dekhne waley ba-chashm e sar dekh rahey thay ke kafir giroh momin giroh se do chandh (twice the number) hai magar (nateeje ne saabit kardiya ke) Allah apni fatah o nusrat se jisko chahta hai madad deta hai. Deedha e beena(eyes to see) rakhne walon ke liye ismein bada sabaq posheeda hai

Men are naturally tempted by the lure of women, children, treasures of gold and silver, horses of mark, cattle and plantations. These are the enjoyments in the life of this world; but with Allah lies a goodly abode to return to.

The true religion with Allah is Islam. The People of the Book adopted many different ways rather than follow the true way of Islam even after the knowledge of truth had reached them, and this merely to commit excesses against one another. Let him who refuses to follow the ordinances and directives of Allah know that Allah is swift in His reckoning.

And if they remonstrate with you, tell them: 'I have submitted my whole being to Allah, and so have those who follow me.' And ask the People of the Book as well as those who follow no heavenly Scripture: 'Have you also submitted (to Allah)?' If they have submitted to Him, they are indeed on the right way but if they deviate from submitting to Allah, then your duty is merely to deliver the message. Allah observes the affairs of His servants.

اِذۡ قَالَ اللّٰهُ يٰعِيۡسٰۤى اِنِّىۡ مُتَوَفِّيۡكَ وَرَافِعُكَ اِلَىَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا وَجَاعِلُ الَّذِيۡنَ اتَّبَعُوۡكَ فَوۡقَ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡۤا اِلٰى يَوۡمِ الۡقِيٰمَةِ ​​ۚ ثُمَّ اِلَىَّ مَرۡجِعُكُمۡ فَاَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَكُمۡ فِيۡمَا كُنۡتُمۡ فِيۡهِ تَخۡتَلِفُوۡنَ‏ ٥٥

(And it was part of His scheme) when Allah said: 'O Jesus! I will recall you and raise you up to Me and will purify you (of the company) of those who disbelieve, and will set your followers above the unbelievers till the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me you shall return, and I will judge between you regarding what you differed.

— A. Maududi (English Tafhim commentary)

(Woh Allah ki khufiya tadbeer hi thi) jab usne kaha, “ aey Isa! Ab main tujhey wapas le lunga aur tujhko apni taraf utha lunga aur jinhon ne tera inkar kiya unse (yani inki maiyat se aur unke gandey maahol mein unke saath rehne se) tujhey paak kardunga aur teri pairwi karne walon ko qayamat tak un logon par balaadast rakhunga jinhon ne tera inkar kiya hai. Phir tum sabko aakhir mere paas aana hai, us waqt main un baaton ka faisla kardunga jinmein tumhare darmiyan ikhtilaf hua hai

Say: 'People of the Book! Come to a word common between us and you: that we shall serve none but Allah and shall associate none with Him in His divinity and that some of us will not take others as lords beside Allah.' And if they turn their backs (from accepting this call), tell them: 'Bear witness that we are the ones who have submitted ourselves exclusively to Allah.'
