Surah baqarah Ayat 211 meaning in urdu

بنی اسرائیل سے پوچھو: کیسی کھلی کھلی نشانیاں ہم نے اُنہیں دکھائی ہیں (اور پھر یہ بھی انہیں سے پوچھ لو کہ) اللہ کی نعمت پانے کے بعد جو قوم اس کو شقاوت سے بدلتی ہے اُسے اللہ کیسی سخت سزادیتا ہے

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

(2:211) Ask the children of Israel how many a clear sign We have shown to them: (also ask them) what a severe chastisement Allah inflicts on the community that, after receiving Allah's favour exchanges it (for wretchdness). *229

Ask the Children of Israel how many a sign of evidence We meaning

*229). There are two reasons why this query is addressed to the Children of Israel. In the first place, a group of living human beings provide a better source of instruction and admonition than mute archaeological findings. In the second place, the Israelites were a people who, having been endowed with Scripture and prophethood, were entrusted with the leadership of the world. By falling prey to worldliness, hypocrisy and other errors of belief and conduct they subsequently lost God's favour. A people entrusted with the task of universal leadership could derive no better lesson from another people than this one.
