Surah Hadid Ayat 16 meaning in urdu

کیا ایمان لانے والوں کے لیے ابھی وہ وقت نہیں آیا کہ اُن کے دل اللہ کے ذکر سے پگھلیں اور اُس کے نازل کردہ حق کے آگے جھکیں اور وہ اُن لوگوں کی طرح نہ ہو جائیں جنہیں پہلے کتاب دی گئی تھی، پھر ایک لمبی مدت اُن پر گزر گئی تو ان کے دل سخت ہو گئے اور آج ان میں سے اکثر فاسق بنے ہوئے ہیں؟

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

(57:16) Is the time not come that the hearts of the believers should be humbled to Allah's remembrance and to the Truth that He has revealed, *28 and that they should not be like those who were vouchsafed the Book and then a long time elapsed so that their hearts were hardened? A great many of them are now evil-doers. *29

Has the time not come for those who have believed that their meaning

*28) Here again, the word "believers" is general, but it dces not apply to alI the Muslims; it refers to those particular Muslims who had professed the faith verbally and joined the followers of the Holy Prophet (upon whom be Allah's peace) though their hearts were devoid of any concern for Islam. They were watching that the pagan forces were bent upon wiping out Islam; they had encircled the handful of Muslims from all sides, who were being made the target of persecution everywhere in Arabia, and thus oppressed the Muslims were fleeing to Madinah empty-handed for refuge; the sincere Muslims were extending to them whatever economic help they could; yet they were, at the same time, engaged in a life and-death struggle with the enemy. But, in spite of this, these people who professed the faith were not being moved at all. So, here, they are being put to shame. as if to say: "What kind of believers are you? At this critical juncture for Islam, is it not yet time that your hearts should melt at the mention of AIlah and be filled with the spirit of sacrifice for the sake of His Religion? Can the believers be such that they may 'have no feeling for Islam when it is confronted with hard times, that they may sit un-concerned when they are summoned in the name of Allah, that the hearts may neither tremble out of fear of Allah nor bow to His Command when He Himself should make an appeal for contributions in the Book sent down by Him, declaring it as a loan on Himself and plainly telling that the one who would regard his wealth as dearer than the cause of the true Faith would be a hypocrite and not a believer?"
*29) That is, "The Jews and Christians seem to have lost fervour and degenerated spiritually and morally hundreds of years after the passing away of their Prophets; but have you already become so depraved that while the Prophet is still present among you, and the Book of God is still being revealed, and not much time has passed over you since you affirmed the Faith, and you have started behaving like the Jews and Christians who have reached this state through centuries of playing and tempering with the Book of Allah and its verses?"
