Ayah 258: Surah Al-Baqarah

الَمْ تَرَ اِلَى الَّذِي حَاجَّ اِبْرَهِمَ فِي رَبِّهِ انْ ءاتَهُ اللَّهُ الْمُلْكَ اِذْ قَالَ اِبْرَهِمُ رَبِّي الَّذِي يُحْيِ وَيُمِيتُ قَالَ انَا اُحْيِ وَاُمِيتُ قَالَ اِبْرَهِمُ فَاِنَّ اللَّهَ يَاْتِي بِالشَّمْسِ مِنْ الْمَشْرِقِ فَاْتِ بِهَا مِنْ الْمَغْرِبِ فَبُهِتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ وَاللَّهُ لَا يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الظَّلِمِينَ
بھلا تم نے اس شخص کو نہیں دیکھا جو اس (غرور کے) سبب سے کہ خدا نے اس کو سلطنت بخشی تھی ابراہیم سے پروردگار کے بارے میں جھگڑنے لگا۔ جب ابراہیم نے کہا میرا پروردگار تو وہ ہے جو جلاتا اور مارتا ہے۔ وہ بولا کہ جلا اور مار تو میں بھی سکتا ہوں۔ ابراہیم نے کہا کہ خدا تو سورج کو مشرق سے نکالتا ہے آپ اسے مغرب سے نکال دیجیئے (یہ سن کر) کافر حیران رہ گیا اور خدا بےانصافوں کو ہدایت نہیں دیا کرتا

Alam tara ila allathee hajja ibraheema fee rabbihi an atahu Allahu almulka ith qala ibraheemu rabbiya allathee yuhyee wayumeetu qala ana ohyee waomeetu qala ibraheemu fa-inna Allaha ya/tee bialshshamsi mina almashriqi fa/ti biha mina almaghribi fabuhita allathee kafara waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alththalimeena

YUSUFALI: Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Lord, because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said: "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said: "I give life and death". Said Abraham: "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east: Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to a people unjust.
PICKTHAL: Bethink thee of him who had an argument with Abraham about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom; how, when Abraham said: My Lord is He Who giveth life and causeth death, he answered: I give life and cause death. Abraham said: Lo! Allah causeth the sun to rise in the East, so do thou cause it to come up from the West. Thus was the disbeliever abashed. And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.
SHAKIR: Have you not considered him (Namrud) who disputed with Ibrahim about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim said: My Lord is He who gives life and causes to die, he said: I give life and cause death. Ibrahim said: So surely Allah causes the sun to rise from the east, then make it rise from the west; thus he who disbelieved was confounded; and Allah does not guide aright the unjust people.
ASAD: ART THOU NOT aware of that [king] who argued with Abraham about his Sustainer, (simply] because God had granted him kingship? Lo! Abraham said: "My Sus'tainer is He who grants life and deals death." [The king] replied: "I [too] grant life and deal death!" Said Abraham: "Verily, God causes the sun to rise in the east; cause it, then, to rise in the west!" Thereupon he who was bent on denying the truth remained dumbfounded: for God does not guide people who [deliberately] do wrong.
