And were it not for a prior decree from your Lord for a specified term, the judgement between them would already have been made. Those who inherited the Book after them are indeed in grave doubt about it. ### Progressive Muslims And they only divided after the knowledge had come to them, due to resentment among themselves. And had it not been for a predetermined decision from your Lord, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, those who inherited the Scripture after them are full of doubts. ### Shabbir Ahmed And they became sects for no reason but through rivalry among themselves, after the Knowledge had come to them. Had it not been for a Word that has already gone forth from your Lord for an appointed term, all matters would have been decided among them. (The Word = The Law of free will, in this context). Behold, the later generations who inherited the Scripture of the old still keep harboring doubts about it. ### Sam Gerrans — The Qur'an: A Complete Revelation And they became divided only after knowledge came to them, through sectarian zealotry between them. And were it not for a word that preceded from thy Lord to a stated term, it would have been concluded between them. And those who were caused to inherit the Writ after them are in sceptical doubt concerning it. ### The Monotheist Group — The Quran: A Monotheist Translation And they only divided after the knowledge had come to them, due to resentment among themselves. And had it not been for a predetermined decision from your Lord, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, those who inherited the Book after them are full of doubts. ### Rashad Khalifa — The Final Testament Ironically, they broke up into sects only after the knowledge had come to them, due to jealousy and resentment among themselves. If it were not for a predetermined decision from your Lord to respite them for a definite interim, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, the later generations who inherited the scripture are full of doubts. ### Mohamed Ahmed - Samira Yet they did not differ about it until knowledge came to them, through rivalries among themselves. If the Word of your Lord, (staying) it for a time ordained, had not preceded it, the matter would have been settled among them. But those who came to inherit the Book after them are also in doubt and disturbed about it. ### Sahih International — (Umm Muhammad, Mary Kennedy, Amatullah Bantley) And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord [postponing the penalty] until a specified time, it would have been concluded between them. And indeed, those who were granted inheritance of the Scripture after them are, concerning it, in disquieting doubt. ### Muhammad Asad And [as for the followers of earlier revelation, ] they broke up their unity, out of mutual jealousy, only after they had come to know [the truth]. And had it not been for a decree that had already gone forth from thy Sustainer, [postponing all decision] until a term set [by Him], all would indeed have been decided between them [from the outset]. As it is, behold, they who have inherited their divine writ from those who preceded them are [now] in grave doubt, amounting to suspicion, about what it por­tends. ### Marmaduke Pickthall And they were not divided until after the knowledge came unto them, through rivalry among themselves; and had it not been for a Word that had already gone forth from thy Lord for an appointed term, it surely had been judged between them. And those who were made to inherit the Scripture after them are verily in hopeless doubt concerning it. ### Abul A'la Maududi — Tafhim commentary They did not split up except after knowledge had come to them,[1] and then only because they wished to commit excesses against each other.[2] Had your Lord not already decreed that judgement would be made later at an appointed time, the matter between them would surely have been decided once and for all.[3] Indeed those who were later made the heirs of the Book are in disquieting doubt about it.[4] _Footnotes_ - [1] That is, the divisions were created not because Allah had failed to send the Prophets and the Books, and therefore, the people could not know the right way and so invented their own separate religions, sects, schools of thought and systems of life, but divisions appeared after knowledge had come to them from Allah. Therefore, Allah is not responsible for it, but the people who abandoned the clear principles of religion and commands of the Shariah and created their own creeds and religions are themselves responsible for it. - [2] That is, the motive for creating the divisions was not good, but they resulted from the desire for ostentation, love of an independent entity, mutual rivalry and stubbornness, the urge to humiliate and defeat one another, and greed for worldly wealth and position. When the clever and ambitious saw that if the godly people followed the true religion honestly, there would only be One God before whom the people would bow, there would be one Messenger whom they would acknowledge as their guide and leader, there would be one Book which they would turn to and there would be a clearly defined creed and code of life which they would be following. In such a system there could be no place of distinction for themselves, on the strength of which they could have their own leadership flourish so that the people should rally round them, and bow to them and also make rich offerings to them. This was the real cause which became the motive of the invention of new creeds and philosophies, new ways and rites of worship and new systems of life, and diverted a large part of humanity from the highway of divine religion and misled them into blind alleys. Then the mutual disputes of the factions and their religious, economic and political conflicts gave rise to intense bitterness, which in turn led to bloodshed and violence among humanity. - [3] That is, all such people who were guilty of inventing false systems and followed them would have been annihilated in the world itself by a torment, and only the righteous ones allowed to survive, which should have indicated as to who was a follower of the truth and who of falsehood in the sight of Allah. But Allah has deferred this decision till Resurrection, for after such a decision in the world, the trial of mankind becomes meaningless. - [4] It means: After the passage of the time of every Prophet and his closest followers when the divine Book reached the later generations, they did not receive it with faith and conviction but were involved in doubts and suspicions and confusions about it. There were many causes for this state of affairs, which can be easily understood by a study of the case of the Torah and the Gospel. The earlier generations have not conveyed both these Books to the later generations well preserved in their original state and in their original words and language. They mixed up the divine word in them with the human word in the form of their commentary, history, verbal traditions and juristic hair-splitting. They made their translations prevail until the original was lost and only the translations remained. Their historical authenticity also was ruined, so much so that nobody now can say with certainty that the Book in his hand is the same that the world had once received through the Prophet Moses or the Prophet Jesus (peace be upon them). Then their elders in the different periods of history initiated such discussions on religion, divinity, philosophy, law, physics, psychology and sociology and invented such systems of thought that the people were lost in them and it became impossible for them to decide as to which was the straight highway of the truth among the countless crooked ways. And since the divine Book did not exist in its original, reliable state, they could neither turn to any authority that could help them to distinguish the truth from falsehood. ### Abdel Khalek Himmat — Al- Muntakhab Yet they only became divided into sects and factions, through envy and enmity, each with a belief cherished in their minds after their acquaintance with facts and intellectual perception of the truth. And had it not been for Allah's word proclaimed beforehand to put punishment in respite to a determined point of time, their Hereafter would have been planted in the now. And now your contemporaries, the successors who have inherited the Book AL-Tawrah (the Torah) are in perplexity about it on account of its present Intricate character ### Bijan Moeinian [Ironically, the followers of the scriptures] broke up into sects after the knowledge was revealed to them, in account of jealousy between themselves! If God had not made a pre-determined decision to take care of them on the Day of Judgment, He would have settled the matter immediately. The fact of the matter is that the followers of the Scriptures have inherited nothing but a bunch of doubts. ### Al-Hilali & Khan And they divided not till after knowledge had come to them, through (selfish) transgression between themselves. And had it not been for a Word that went forth before from your Lord for an appointed term, the matter would have been settled between them. And verily, those who were made to inherit the Scripture [i.e. the Taurâh (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)] after them (i.e. Jews and Christians) are in grave doubt concerning it (i.e. Allâh’s true religion - Islâm or the Qur’ân). ### Abdullah Yusuf Ali And they became divided only after Knowledge reached them,- through selfish envy as between themselves. Had it not been for a Word that went forth before from thy Lord, (tending) to a Term appointed, the matter would have been settled between them: But truly those who have inherited the Book after them are in suspicious (disquieting) doubt concerning it. ### Mustafa Khattab — The Clear Quran They did not split ˹into sects˺ out of mutual envy until knowledge came to them.[1] Had it not been for a prior decree from your Lord for an appointed term,[2] the matter would have certainly been settled between them ˹at once˺. And surely those who were made to inherit the Scripture[3] after them are truly in alarming doubt about this ˹Quran˺. ### Taqi Usmani And they were not divided, in jealousy with each other, but after the knowledge had come to them. Had it not been for a word that had come forth earlier from your Lord (and was effective) until a specified time, the matter would have been decided between them. And those who were made to inherit the Book after them are in confounding doubt about it. ### Abdul Haleem They divided, out of rivalry, only after knowledge had come to them, and, if it had not been for a decree already passed by your Lord to reprieve them until an appointed time, they would already have been judged. Those after them, who inherited the Scripture, are in disquieting doubt about it. ### Arthur John Arberry They scattered not, save after knowledge had come to them, being insolent one to another; and but for a Word that preceded from thy Lord until a stated term, it had been decided between them. But those to whom the Book has been given as an inheritance after them, behold, they are in doubt of it disquieting. ### E. Henry Palmer But they did not part into sects until after the knowledge had come to them, through mutual envy; and had it not been for thy Lord's word already passed for an appointed time, it would surely have been decided between them; but, verily, those who have been given the Book as an inheritance after them, are in hesitating doubt concerning it. ### Hamid S. Aziz And they did not become divided until after knowledge had come to them out of rivalry among themselves; and had not a Word already gone forth from your Lord for an appointed term, certainly judgment would have been given between them; and those who were made to inherit the Book after them are most surely in hopeless (or suspicious, disturbing) doubt concerning it. ### Mahmoud Ghali And in no way were they disunited except even after knowledge had come to them, being inequitable among themselves; and had it not been for a Word that had gone before from your Lord until a stated term, indeed it would have been decreed between them. And surely the ones who were made to inherit the Book even after them are indeed in doubt of it, causing suspicion. ### George Sale Those who lived in times past were not divided among themselves, until after that the knowledge of God's unity had come unto them; through their own perverseness: And unless a previous decree had passed from thy Lord, to bear with them till a determined time, verily the matter had been decided between them, by the destruction of the gain-sayers. They who have inherited the scriptures after them, are certainly in a perplexing doubt concerning the same. ### Syed Vickar Ahamed And they (to whom you call) became divided only after knowledge came to them— Through selfish transgression and envy between themselves. If it was not for a Word that reached them before from your Lord, (regarding) a period (for repentance) appointed, the matter would have been settled between them. And truly, those (the Jews and Christians) who have inherited the Book (of Message, Torah and Gospel) after them are in (uneasy and) suspicious doubt about it (the Quran). ### Amatul Rahman Omar And these (rejecters of the faith) split themselves into factions only after (true) knowledge (of the fundamental principles of faith) had come to them (and that too) out of jealousy among themselves and to spite one another. But for the word (of promise) already gone forth from your Lord, (that they would be given respite) for a fixed term, the judgment upon these (disbelievers) would surely have long been passed (by their complete annihilation). As for those who have been made to inherit the Scripture after these (Prophets) they are in a disquieting and grave doubt about this (Qur'ân). ### Ali Quli Qarai They did not divide [into sects] except after the knowledge had come to them, out of envy among themselves; and were it not for a prior decree of your Lord [granting them reprieve] until a specified time, decision would have been made between them. Indeed those who were made heirs to the Book after them are surely in grave doubt concerning it. ### Ahmed Hulusi — Türkçe Kur'an Çözümü İlim (Hakikat ilmi) kendilerine geldikten sonra, aralarındaki kıskançlık yüzünden tefrikaya düştüler! Eğer Rabbinden, belirlenmiş bir zamana kadar yaşamaları hükmolunmamış olsaydı; onlar arasında elbette işleri bitirilirdi! Onlardan sonra BİLGİye varis kılınanlara (ehl-i kitaba) gelince; muhakkak ki Ondan (Kuran'dan) kuşkulu bir tereddüt içindedirler. ### Ali Bulaç — Kur'an-ı Kerim ve Türkçe Anlamı Onlar, kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra, yalnızca aralarındaki 'tecavüz ve haksızlık' dolayısıyla ayrılığa düştüler. Eğer Rabbinden, adı konulmuş bir ecele kadar geçmiş (verilmiş) bir söz olmasaydı, muhakkak aralarında hüküm verilmiş (iş bitirilmiş)ti. Şüphesiz onların ardından Kitaba mirasçı olanlar ise, her halde ona karşı kuşku verici bir tereddüt içindedirler. ### Bayraktar Bayraklı — Yeni Bir Anlayışın Işığında Kur'an Meali Kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra ihtilafa düşmeleri, sırf aralarındaki kıskançlıktan dolayıdır. Eğer Rabbin tarafından belirli bir süreye kadar önceden verilmiş bir söz olmasaydı, kesinlikle aralarında hüküm verilecekti. Onlardan sonra kendilerine kitap verilenler de kesinlikle o din hakkında aşırı şüphe içerisindedirler. ### Diyanet İşleri — Kur'an-ı Kerim Türkçe Meali Onlar, kendilerine bilgi geldikten sonra, aralarındaki kıskançlık yüzünden ayrılığa düştüler. Eğer (azabın) belli bir süreye kadar (ertelenmesi ile ilgili olarak) Rabbinden bir söz geçmiş olmasaydı, aralarında hemen hüküm verilirdi. Onlardan sonra Kitab'a mirasçı kılınanlar da, onun hakkında derin bir şüphe içindedirler. ### Elmalılı Hamdi Yazır — Kur'an-ı Kerim ve Yüce Meali Tefrikaya düşmeleri ise kendilerine ılim geldikten sonra sırf aralarında Bağy-ü ıhtırastan dolayıdır ve eğer rabbından müsemma bir ecele kadar diye bir kelime geçmiş olmasa idi, aralarında hukmi kaza mutlak icra edilir bitirilirdi, arkalarından kitaba varis kılınanlar da ondan işkilli bir şekk içindedirler ### Elmalılı (sadeleştirilmiş) Kendilerine bilgi geldikten sonra ayrılığa düşmeleri sadece aralarındaki düşmanlık ve ihtirastan dolayıdır. Eğer Rabbin tarafından "belirli bir vakte kadar" şeklinde bir söz geçmemiş olsaydı aralarında verilen hüküm mutlaka yerine getirilir ve (iş) bitirilirdi. Kendilerinden sonra Kitab'a mirasçı kılınanlar da ondan kuşkulu bir şüphe içindedirler. ### Gültekin Onan Onlar, kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra, yalnızca aralarındaki 'tecavüz ve haksızlık' dolayısıyla ayrılığa düştüler. Eğer rabbinden adı konulmuş bir ecele kadar geçmiş (verilmiş) bir söz olmasaydı, muhakkak aralarında hüküm verilmiş (iş bitirilmiş)ti. Şüphesiz onların ardından Kitaba mirasçı olanlar ise, her halde ona karşı kuşku verici bir tereddüt içindedirler. ### Hasan Basri Çantay — Kur'an-ı Hakim ve Meal-i Kerim Onlar ancak kendilerine ilim geldikden sonradır ki, aralarındaki ihtiraas yüzünden, ayrılığa düşdüler. Eğer Rabbinden ad verilmiş bir va'deye kadar bir söz geçmiş olmasaydı aralarında muhakkak hukum verilmiş (her şey olub bitirilmişdi) bile. Onlardan sonra kitaba mirascı yapılanlar da ondan mutlak şübheci bir tereddüd içindedirler. ### İbni Kesir Onlar; kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra aralarındaki ihtiras yüzünden ayrılığa düştüler. Şayet belirli bir süre için Rabbından bir söz geçmiş olmasaydı, aralarında hüküm verilirdi. Onlardan sonra kitaba varis kılınanlar da ondan mutlak bir şüphe ve tereddüt içindedirler. ### Muhammed Esed — Kur'an Mesajı (Geçmiş vahiylerin mensuplarına gelince,) onlar (hakikati) tanıyıp öğrendikten sonra, aralarındaki kıskançlık ve çekişmelerden dolayı bütünlükten uzaklaştılar; ve Rabbinden (O'nun koyduğu) belli bir vadeye kadar (bütün hükümleri iptal eden) bir hüküm gelmemiş olsaydı, onlar arasında (baştan) her şey karara bağlanmış olurdu. İşte bakın, öncekilerden ilahi kelamı devralanlar (şimdi) onun öğretileri hakkında şüpheye varan büyük bir tereddüt içindeler. ### Şaban Piriş — Kur'an-ı Kerim Türkçe Anlamı Kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra, sadece aralarındaki "haksız tecavüz" sebebiyle gruplara ayrıldılar. Eğer Rabbin'den belirlenmiş bir süreye kadar bir söz olmasaydı, derhal aralarında hüküm verilmiş olurdu. Onların ardından kitaba mirasçı olanlar da elbette ondan bir şüphe ve tereddüt içindedirler. ### Süleyman Ateş — Kur'an-ı Kerim ve Yüce Meali Onlar, kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra sadece aralarındaki çekememezlik yüzünden ayrılığa düştüler. Eğer Rabbinden belli bir süreye kadar yaşatma sözü geçmiş olmasaydı, aralarında hüküm verilir (işleri bitirilir)di. Onlardan sonra Kitaba varis kılınanlar ondan, kuşku veren bir şüphe içindedirler. ### Yaşar Nuri Öztürk — Kur'an-ı Kerim Meali Kendilerine ilim geldikten sonra, sadece aralarındaki kıskançlık ve azgınlık yüzünden fırkalara bölündüler. Eğer belli bir süreye kadar erteleme sözü Rabbinden gelmiş olmasaydı, aralarında iş mutlaka bitirilirdi. Onların ardından Kitap'a mirasçı olanlar da onun hakkında, işkillendiren bir kuşku içindedirler. ### Mustafa İslamoğlu — Hayat Kitabı Kur’an Onlar, hakikatin bilgisi kendilerine ulaştıktan sonra, sırf aralarındaki kıskançlık yüzünden birbirlerine düştüler: Ve eğer Rabbin tarafından daha önceden belirli bir vadeye kadar ertelendiğne dair bir yasa konmasaydı, haklarındaki hüküm hemen infaz edilirdi. İşte onların ardından gelen (eski) vahyin (son) varisleri de, bu (vahiy)den dolayı tereddütle karışık bir şüphe içindedirler. ### Erhan Aktaş (Eski Baskı) — Kerim Kur'an Onların, kendilerine ilim[1] geldikten sonra anlaşmazlığa düşmelerinin nedeni kıskançlık ve ihtiraslarıdır. Eğer Rabb'inden, "belirlenmiş bir süreye kadar" sözü verilmemiş olunsaydı, aralarında hemen hüküm gerçekleştirilirdi. Onların ardından Kitap'a mirasçı olanlar[2], derin bir kuşku içindedirler. _Footnotes_ - [1] Vahiy. - [2] Ehl-i Kitap. ### Ali Rıza Safa — Kur'an-ı Kerim Gerçek Kendilerine bilgi geldikten sonra, aralarındaki çekemezlik yüzünden ayrılığa sürüklendiler. Belirlenmiş bir süreye dek, Efendinden verilmiş bir söz olmasaydı, aralarında kesin yargı verilirdi. Aslında, onlardan sonra Kitap'a kalıtçı olanlar da Onun hakkında, gerçekten derin bir kuşkuya kapıldılar. ### Süleymaniye Vakfı (Eski Baskı) — Süleymaniye Vakfı Meali Ayrılığa düşmeleri, kendilerine bu bilgi geldikten sonra, birbirlerini kıskanmalarından dolayı oldu. Sahibinin, o belirlenmiş ecellerine kadar özgür bırakma sözü[1] olmasaydı hemen yargılanırlardı. Onlardan sonra Kitaba mirasçı olanlar ise kuşku içinde bocalayıp dururlar. _Footnotes_ - [1] Ecel konusu için Bkz:En'am 6/2 ve dip notu. ### Mehmet Okuyan — Kur’an Meal-Tefsir Kendilerine bilgi geldikten sonra, sadece aralarındaki kıskançlık yüzünden ayrılığa düştüler.[1] Belirli bir süreye kadar Rabbinden bir söz geçmemiş olsaydı, elbette aralarında hüküm verilirdi. Onlardan sonra kitaba vâris kılınanlar (Mekkeliler) de şüphesiz ki ondan (Kur'an'dan) kuşkulandıran bir şüphe içindedir. _Footnotes_ - [1] Benzer mesajlar: Bakara 2:213; Al-i İmrân 3:19; Yûnus 10:93; Câsiye 45:17; Beyyine 98:4. ### Erhan Aktaş (10. Baskı) — Kerim Kur'an Onların, kendilerine ilim[1] geldikten sonra anlaşmazlığa düşmelerinin nedeni kıskançlık ve ihtiraslarıdır. Eğer Rabb'inden, "belirlenmiş bir süreye kadar" sözü verilmemiş olunsaydı, aralarında hemen hüküm gerçekleştirilirdi. Onların ardından Kitap'a mirasçı olanlar[2], tam bir ikilem ve kaygı içindedirler. _Footnotes_ - [1] Vahiy. - [2] Ehl-i Kitap. ### Erhan Aktaş — Kerim Kur'an Onların, kendilerine ilim[1] geldikten sonra anlaşmazlığa düşmelerinin nedeni kıskançlık ve ihtiraslarıdır.

Rabbinin, belirlenmiş ecellerine kadar onları bırakma sözü[3] olmasaydı aralarında mutlaka hüküm verilirdi (de işleri bitirilirdi). Onlardan sonra Kitaba mirasçı olanlar ise Kitap'tan yana tam bir ikilemde bırakan şüphe içine düştüler[4]. _Footnotes_ - [1] [Nahl 16/2,](https://quran.so/16/2) [İsra 17/85,](https://quran.so/17/85) [Şura 42/52.](https://quran.so/42/52) - [2] [Bakara 2/213,](https://quran.so/2/213) [Al-i İmran 3/19,](https://quran.so/3/19) [Casiye 45/17.](https://quran.so/45/17) - [3] Ecel konusu için bkz [En'am 6/2](https://quran.so/6/2)ve dipnotu. - [4] [Yunus 10/19,](https://quran.so/10/19) [Hud 11/110,](https://quran.so/11/110) [Fussilet 41/45,](https://quran.so/41/45) [Fatır 35/32.](https://quran.so/35/32) ## Words | # | word | meaning | root | |---|---|---|---| | 1 | وَمَا — wamā | And not | — | | 2 | تَفَرَّقُوٓا۟ — tafarraqū | they became divided | فرق — Fe-Ra-Kaf | | 3 | إِلَّا — illā | until | — | | 4 | مِنۢ — min | after | — | | 5 | بَعْدِ — baʿdi | after | بعد — Be-Ayn-Dal | | 6 | مَا — mā | [what] | — | | 7 | جَآءَهُمُ — jāahumu | came to them | جيا — Cim-Ye-Elif | | 8 | ٱلْعِلْمُ — l-ʿil'mu | the knowledge | علم — Ayn-Lam-Mim | | 9 | بَغْيًۢا — baghyan | (out of) rivalry | بغي — Be-Gayn-Ye | | 10 | بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ — baynahum | among them | بين — Be-Ye-Nun | | 11 | وَلَوْلَا — walawlā | And if not | — | | 12 | كَلِمَةٌۭ — kalimatun | (for) a word | كلم — Kef-Lam-Mim | | 13 | سَبَقَتْ — sabaqat | (that) preceded | سبق — Sin-Be-Kaf | | 14 | مِن — min | from | — | | 15 | رَّبِّكَ — rabbika | your Lord | ربب — Ra-Ba-Ba | | 16 | إِلَىٰٓ — ilā | for | — | | 17 | أَجَلٍۢ — ajalin | a term | اجل — Elif-Cim-Lam | | 18 | مُّسَمًّۭى — musamman | specified | سمو — Sin-Mim-Vav | | 19 | لَّقُضِىَ — laquḍiya | surely, it (would have) been settled | قضي — Kaf-Dad-Ye | | 20 | بَيْنَهُمْ ۚ — baynahum | between them | بين — Be-Ye-Nun | | 21 | وَإِنَّ — wa-inna | And indeed | — | | 22 | ٱلَّذِينَ — alladhīna | those who | — | | 23 | أُورِثُوا۟ — ūrithū | were made to inherit | ورث — Vav-Ra-Se | | 24 | ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ — l-kitāba | the Book | كتب — Kef-Te-Be | | 25 | مِنۢ — min | after them | — | | 26 | بَعْدِهِمْ — baʿdihim | after them | بعد — Be-Ayn-Dal | | 27 | لَفِى — lafī | (are) surely in | — | | 28 | شَكٍّۢ — shakkin | doubt | شكك — Şin-Kef-Kef | | 29 | مِّنْهُ — min'hu | concerning it | — | | 30 | مُرِيبٍۢ — murībin | disquieting | ريب — Ra-Ye-Be | --- Previous: https://quran.so/surah-ash-shuraa/verse-13.md · Next: https://quran.so/surah-ash-shuraa/verse-15.md Retrieved: 2026-08-12 Quran.so — https://quran.so — CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 — When quoting, name the translator.
