Verse:051Dr. Mohsin : And if you could but see, when they will be terrified with no escape (for them), and they will be seized from a near place.
Pickthal : Couldst thou but see when they are terrified with no escape, and are seized from near at hand,
Yusuf Ali : If thou couldst but see when they will quake with terror: but then there will be no escape (for them), and they will be seized from a position (quite) near.
Verse:052Dr. Mohsin : And they will say (in the Hereafter): "We do believe (now);" but how could they receive (Faith and the acceptance of their repentance by Allâh) from a place so far off (i.e. to return to the worldly life again).
Pickthal : And say: We (now) believe therein. But how can they reach (faith) from afar off,
Yusuf Ali : And they will say "We do believe (now) in the (Truth)": but how could they receive (Faith) from a position (so) far off―
Verse:053Dr. Mohsin : Indeed they did disbelieve (in the Oneness of Allâh, Islâm, the Qur'ân and Muhammad SAW) before (in this world), and they (used to) conjecture about the unseen [i.e. the Hereafter, Hell, Paradise, Resurrection and the Promise of Allâh (by saying) all that is untrue], from a far place.
Pickthal : When they disbelieved in it of yore. They aim at the unseen from afar off.
Yusuf Ali : Seeing that they did reject Faith (entirely) before, and that they (continually) cast (slanders) on the Unseen from a position far off?
Verse:054Dr. Mohsin : And a barrier will be set between them and that which they desire [i.e. At-Taubah (turning to Allâh in repentance) and the accepting of Faith], as was done in the past with the people of their kind. Verily, they have been in grave doubt.
Pickthal : And a gulf is set between them and that which they desire, as was done for people of their kind of old. Lo! they were in hopeless doubt.
Yusuf Ali : And between them and their desires, is placed a barrier, as was done in the past with their partisans: for they were indeed in suspicious (disquieting) doubt.
