| Dr Kamal Omar Say: “Obey Allah and obey the Messenger, then if you turned away, then surely what (is a fact is that) on him (is the responsibility) what has been placed on him (as a duty), and on you what has been placed on you. And if you obey him you shall attain guidance. And it is not on the Messenger as a duty except the preaching in a clear and plain fashion |
| Dr Laleh Bakhtiar Say: Obey God and obey the Messenger. But if you turn away, then, on him was only what was loaded on him, and on you was only what was loaded on you. And if you obey him, you will be truly guided. And there is not a duty on the Messenger but the delivering of the clear message |
| Dr Munir Munshey Say, "Obey Allah and obey the messenger and if you turn away, then (remember that) the messenger is liable for the responsibility he bears, while you are accountable for your burden of responsibility. If you obey him, you would be led on to the right way. Apart from conveying the message clearly, the messenger has no further responsibility |
| Edward Henry Palmer Say, 'Obey God and obey the Apostle; but if ye turn your backs he has only his burden to bear, and ye have only your burden to bear. But if ye obey him, ye are guided; but the Apostle has only his plain message to deliver |
| Farook Malik Say: "Obey Allah and obey the Messenger. If you do not, the Messenger is still under obligation to fulfill his duty, as you are under obligation to fulfill yours; and if you obey him, you shall be rightly guided. Note it well that the responsibility of the Messenger is only to deliver Allah’s message clearly |
| George Sale Say, obey God, and obey the apostle: But if ye turn back, verily it is expected of him that he perform his duty, and of you that ye perform your duty; and if ye obey him, ye shall be directed: But the duty of our apostle is only public preaching |
| Maududi Say, "Obey Allah and obey the Messenger, but if you turn away, you should note it well that the Messenger is responsible for the duty entrusted to him and you are responsible for the duty entrusted to you. If you obey him, you will be rightly guided, for the responsibility of the Messenger is only to convey the Message clearly to you |
