makki

وَمَا يَسْتَوِى ٱلْأَحْيَآءُ وَلَا ٱلْأَمْوَٰتُ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُسْمِعُ مَن يَشَآءُ وَمَآ أَنتَ بِمُسْمِعٍ مَّن فِى ٱلْقُبُورِ

“Nor are the living equal with the dead. Lo! Allah maketh whom He will to hear. Thou canst not reach those who are in the graves.”

— Pickthall

“Nor are alike those that are living and those that are dead. Allah can make any that He wills to hear; but thou canst not make those to hear who are (buried) in graves.”

— Yusuf Ali

“And not equal are the living and the dead. Indeed, Allah causes to hear whom He wills, but you cannot make hear those in the graves.”

— Sahih International

“আরও সমান নয় জীবিত ও মৃত। আল্লাহ শ্রবণ করান যাকে ইচ্ছা। আপনি কবরে শায়িতদেরকে শুনাতে সক্ষম নন।”

— Muhiuddin Khan

“اور نہ زندے اور مردے برابر ہوسکتے ہیں۔ خدا جس کو چاہتا ہے سنا دیتا ہے۔ اور تم ان کو جو قبروں میں مدفون ہیں نہیں سنا سکتے”

— مولانا فتح محمد جالندھری
