﴿فَبِمَا نَقۡضِهِم مِّيثَٰقَهُمۡ وَكُفۡرِهِم بِـَٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَتۡلِهِمُ ٱلۡأَنۢبِيَآءَ بِغَيۡرِ حَقّٖ وَقَوۡلِهِمۡ قُلُوبُنَا غُلۡفُۢۚ بَلۡ طَبَعَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهَا بِكُفۡرِهِمۡ فَلَا يُؤۡمِنُونَ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا ﴾
[النِّسَاء: 155]
﴿فبما نقضهم ميثاقهم وكفرهم بآيات الله وقتلهم الأنبياء بغير حق وقولهم قلوبنا﴾ [النِّسَاء: 155]
| Dr Kamal Omar So, because 'of their undoing their’ covenant and their rejection of the Ayaat (Verses) of Allah and their (act of doing character) assassinations of the Prophets without (any) basis and their utterance: “Our hearts are wrapped” — nay, Allah has put up a seal over these (hearts) due to their disbelief, so they develop not Faith except very little |
| Dr Laleh Bakhtiar for their breaking their solemn promise and their ingratitude for the signs of God and their killing the Prophets without right and their saying: Our hearts are encased. Nay! God set a seal on them for their ingratitude—so they believe not but a few— |
| Dr Munir Munshey (We punished them) because of their breach of the sacred covenant, and their rejection of the signs of Allah; (We punished them because of) the wrongful slaying of the prophets by them, and their (boastful) statements, "Our hearts are (safe and) sheathed (against your sermons)." Rather, because of their disbelief, Allah stamped a seal on their hearts. Little is what they believe |
| Edward Henry Palmer But for that they broke their compact, and for their misbelief in God's signs, and for their killing the prophets undeservedly, and for their saying, 'Our hearts are uncircumcised,' - nay, God hath stamped on them their misbelief, so that they cannot believe except a few |
| Farook Malik After all this, they still broke their covenant, rejected the Revelation of Allah, killed the Prophets unjustly. Yet they say: "Our hearts are in secure wrappings which have preserved Allah’s Word; we need no more." Nay! It is Allah who has sealed their hearts on account of their disbelief. They have no faith except a little |
| George Sale Therefore for that they have made void their covenant, and have not believed in the signs of God, and have slain the prophets unjustly, and have said, our hearts are uncircumcised; -- but God hath sealed them up, because of their unbelief; therefore they shall not believe, except a few of them |
| Maududi (They have incurred Allah´s wrath) for their breaking the covenant, and their rejection of the signs of Allah, and for slaying Prophets without right, and for saying: ´Our hearts are wrapped up in covers´ -even though in fact Allah has sealed their hearts because of their unbelief, so that they scarcely believe |
