Surah baqarah Ayat 145 meaning in urdu

تم ان اہل کتاب کے پاس خواہ کوئی نشانی لے آؤ، ممکن نہیں کہ یہ تمہارے قبلے کی پیروی کرنے لگیں، اور نہ تمہارے لیے یہ ممکن ہے کہ ان کے قبلے کی پیروی کرو، اور ان میں سے کوئی گروہ بھی دوسرے کے قبلے کی پیروی کے لیے تیار نہیں ہے، او ر اگر تم نے اس علم کے بعد جو تمہارے پاس آ چکا ہے، ان کی خواہشات کی پیروی کی، تو یقیناً تمہارا شمار ظالموں میں ہوگا

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(2:145) Even though you may show every kind of sign to the people of the Book, they will not adopt your giblah, nor are you going to adopt their giblah; nor will any of them adopt the giblah of the other; therefore if, after the knowledge you have received, you follow their desires, you will certainly be counted among the transgressors. *147

And if you brought to those who were given the Scripture every meaning

*147). The purpose of this verse is to ask the Prophet not to be disturbed by the controversy and remonstrance to which some people had resorted as a result of this change in the direction of Prayer. It was difficult to convince those people by argument, since they suffered from prejudices and intransigence and were unwilling to abandon their traditional qiblah. It was also impossible for the matter to be resolved by adopting the qiblah of any of the contending groups; there were various groups and they were not agreed in respect of the qiblah. If the qiblah of one group had been adopted this would have satisfied only that group. As for the rest, their remonstrating would persist. Furthermore, and more basic in this connection, was the fact that as a Prophet Muhammad ought neither to be concerned to please people, nor haggle with them in order to arrive at compromised solutions. On the contrary, the mission of a Prophet is to adhere firmly, to the knowledge vouchsafed to him by God regardless of all opposition. To deviate from that knowledge to please others is tantamount to offending the prophetic mission and is inconsistent with the gratitude that the Prophet ought to feel for having been favoured with the position of world leadership.
