| Abdel Haleem The wall belonged to two young orphans in the town and there was buried treasure beneath it belonging to them. Their father had been a righteous man, so your Lord intended them to reach maturity and then dig up their treasure as a mercy from your Lord. I did not do [these things] of my own accord: these are the explanations for those things you could not bear with patience.’ |
| Abdul Hye As for the wall, it belonged to 2 orphan boys in the town and there was a treasure for them under it.

I did not do them by my own will. That is the interpretation of (those actions) over which you could not hold patience.” |

I did it not of my own accord. Such is the interpretation of (those things) over which thou wast unable to hold patience |

That is the explanation of the things about which you were not able to restrain yourself.´ |
