20 Sura Taha

The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:



وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِنَ الصَّالِحَاتِ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ...   

20: 112. But he who works deeds of righteousness, and has faith,

...فَلَا يَخَافُ ظُلْمًا وَلَا هَضْمًا ﴿١١٢﴾

will have no fear of harm nor of any curtailment (of what is his due).

C2637. See the last note.

Unlike the unjust, the righteous, who have come with Faith, will now find their Faith justified: not only will they be free from any fear of harm, but they will be rewarded to the full, or, as has been said in other passages, where His bounty rather than His justice is emphasised, they will get more than their due reward (3:27;39:10).


Asad’s Version:


(20:112) Taha, Mecca 45

whereas anyone who will have done [whatever he could] of righteous deeds, and was a believer withal, need have no fear of being wronged or deprived [of aught of his merit].' 5

====================================================

39 . Surah Az-Zumar

The Quranic Text & Ali’s Version:




وَيُنَجِّي اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوا بِمَفَازَتِهِمْ...

39: 61. But Allah will deliver the righteous to their place of salvation:

C4334. Mafazat: place or state of safety or salvation, place or state of victory or achievement; accomplishment of wish or desire.

This contrasted against the frustration, failure, and perdition of the children of evil,-what may be called damnation in theological phraseology.

... لَا يَمَسُّهُمُ السُّوءُ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ ﴿٦١﴾

no evil shall touch them, nor shall they grieve.

اللَّهُ خَالِقُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ...

39: 62. Allah is the Creator of all things,

... وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَكِيلٌ ﴿٦٢﴾

and He is the Guardian and Disposer of all affairs.

C4335. Allah has not only created all the Worlds, but He maintains them and cares for them. He does not sit apart from His world. Everything depends upon Him

Asad’s Version:




39:61 [Asad] But God will safeguard all who were conscious of Him, [and will grant them happiness] by virtue of their [inner] triumphs; no evil shall ever touch them, and neither shall they grieve.


39:62 GOD is the Creator of all things, and He alone has the power to determine the fate of all things."
